: About Me :

I am an aspiring writer, artist, and animal-lover; a girl in the 9th grade. My life revolves around animals, soccer, FFA, and having fun. I find daily joy in simply caring for and playing with my pets or wild creatures; I like to maintain plants, organize pet habitats, admire nature photography, read animal stories; anything creative, especially with living things. The balance of life is what inspires me to write, coincidentally. I like being able to create and/or manage something that is its own entity, whether that be a loving pet I can care for, a drawing I can admire, a fictional world I've conjured up, or a song that I find wonderful. It's also why I love to draw. Overall, the beauty of life inspires my two main hobbies, writing and drawing, but writing is my top love of the two.

I hope to achieve a career revolving around animals when I'm on my own one day. They are the most amazing, fascinating things to me. I'd like to, one day, get a huge terrarium, (hundreds of gallons in size) and build a self-sustaining, yet manually balanced ecosystem of beautiful, hopefully friendly animals. It's called a vivarium. I'd have it set up with water, land, and with different heights and depths, as well as several species of coexisting animals. It would most likely be one of several vivariums, each with different biomes, such as desert and tropical. One might be full of snakes, while another has aquatic amphibians, fish, and turtles of all sorts. I actually have sketch diaries and notebooks with pages dedicated for prototypes of possible vivariums I'd love to create and maintain!

I have had a countless number of animals in my life, including a mini-farm on 10 acres, my family's pet store, two occasions in breeding dogs, breeding horses, rehabilitating little wild animals, and a whole lot more! I currently am beginning a corn snake breeding program. I also have numerous other pets, including ball pythons, dogs, tortoises, rats, rabbits, bearded dragons, and more.

I play soccer and I love rock music. My favorite band is Paramore, but there are far too many bands and artists to list that I listen to as well. (Icon Fore Hire, Evanescence, etc...) I like all types of music, though, including pop, country, classical, and really any genre as long as the song is good. I just don't listen to them frequently. I've noticed that the ones I like most are alternative rock, metal, scream, soft rock, and anything else rock-related, which people often say they wouldn't expect me to like.

I also like Scratch programming, which I am off and on with. Scratch is a form of basic programming, literally all about piecing together colored blocks to create a sequence of actions, ultimately producing a game, animation, or any type of project within its vast limits, basically. It's built for a person of any age, but specifically designed to be user-friendly and act as the first step for kids (such as myself) to learn about the basics of any programming. The next step is Flash, I would say. I recommend visiting my profile, the link is below!

Please visit http://scratch.mit.edu/users/DewleafWolf to see my finished games, animations, and more projects on Scratch. Visit http://www.fanfiction.net/dewleafwolf for my profile on FanFiction! When there's a good book, movie, or something similar, I often imagine a good twist of events in my head or perhaps what the characters would do in a different plot or in their everyday lives. I'm always reviewing FF stories, though I really don't finish possible fanfics. I did create an account, however, to interact with the website and have a username ready to post possible stories through! Go there to see the media I like fanfics of. Usually the characters mentioned there are the ones I draw.

Thanks for reading my profile. I hope you enjoy my work!

: My Writing : (My work is fully made and owned by me. Please, do not steal anything of mine.)

In FictionPress, my level of activity online differs on what I'm doing in my life currently. Sometimes I'm posting a bunch of oneshot poems, other times I'm focusing on my fun novels, other times I have writer's block or I'm far too busy to sit down and write.

When I write, my goal is to create a piece that represents one of three categories that I currently feel like expressing: narrative adventure, descriptive scenery, and/or metaphorical philosophy. Therefore, as an example, a poem about unimaginable sadness is most likely going to be of the third writing group, as opposed to a fantasy novel falling under the first category. Read the content I've uploaded and you'll notice one of the three approaches being exercised; sometimes a story is a mixture of groups, other times each paragraph might differentiate. I like writing this way; it keeps me focused on the feelings I want to convey to the reader, whether I want to make them experience something vividly, help them live the tale, or make them rethink the meaning of life! Additionally, in poetry specifically, I usually decide if I want the flow to be short and catchy or long and fluent beforehand. As an example, The Amber Blur (a suggested poem) would be considered fluent, whilst A Snake in the Dark is shorter, its syllables rhyming identically in desired places, unlike the other poem.

Another rule that I tend to follow is making the majority of my work teen rated or below. I'd like to think that I can make a good story that people of all ages can acknowledge and appreciate.

Lastly, I'd like to state that I take my writing seriously. I may not write the most serious of poetry or stories, but it's all as practice in the mindset that one day I'll be an excellent writer. Not only that, but I love to write. It's something I'm not sure I could live comfortably without. I do write as a passionate hobby and outlet, and I have plans for a serious career when I'm older, but I hope that my writing skills will flourish and assist me in life. I'm not asking to become a legendary author, but it's definitely my goal to become well-known.
