About Me

My name is Tauria. I'm a fifteen year old girl who hopes to one day become a published author. I love writing and reading, I suck at updating, and though I try to review as often as possible, sometimes I just don't know what to say (or I'm on my phone and don't like typing on there).

I love Fantasy and Supernatural and I write for both. Sometimes I like Sci-Fi and sometimes I like mysteries, but neither are things I read on a regular basis.

Ever since I was little, I have enjoyed reading and writing. I always admired how writers can create an entire world through just words, and since second grade I've wanted to do that myself. I've wanted to create a world that readers would enjoy coming back to time and time again.

Writing is often a relaxant for me as well as something I use to escape the world

When I write, my writing will occasionally get very jumbled up, because when I write, I ‘become’ that character – so to speak – and I write what he/she thinks. Because when I am thinking, my thoughts get scrambled up and confusing, my writing can often reflect the same, though I do try not to do that -sheepish smile-

I’ve been asked about my writing process in the past (okay, only by one person) so I thought I’d drop this little paragraph in here just for the heck of it ;) When I write, I like to take a ‘car headlights’ approach. I don’t plan anything out, and half the time I’m sitting in the backseat while my characters drive (after they’ve been given some instruction:). I know what’s going to come for the next couple scenes (maybe even the next chapter if the high beams are on;). This is one of the reasons I take so long to update. I find if I plan things out too much (beyond a simple beginning, middle, end) then I have a harder time writing it.

I talk a lot, and tend to say/type things that I regret later. I don’t always have control over what I say (within reason). I am pretty shy though, yet once I start talking to someone, my words flow out of my mouth like liquid from a container (that was a horrible analogy….). I am an introvert, not an extrovert, so I tend to keep to myself mostly – especially in public. Though, I WILL respond to reviews asking a question, and if I have been sent a PM.

I am weak at writing humor, descriptions, and keeping a good pace for very long. I am also horrible at planning things out, though I do my best to try and do that. I'm not entirely sure at what my strengths are, though I like to think that they're in characters.

My parents are divorced, and while my little brother and sister go every weekend, I rarely go – if at all. My friend lived with me in the past, but she went back and lived with her parents after the events of ‘Worry’ (though she wasn’t too happy with that… for reasons I won't get into on my profile, and I probably won't ever go into EXACT details because it's her business, not mine)

Um, I think that’s pretty much it. If you have any questions feel free to send me a PM.

I do not promise that my writing is perfect. I do not promise that my grammar, spelling, and whatnot are perfect either. I appreciate any constructive criticism, or any way to make my writing and/or stories better.

I hope you enjoy my stories XD

Future (and Current) Stories

The Lady of the Rose: She was like a rose... beautiful, but untouchable. He was the one who dared to get cut.

More Info: A story about a sixteen year old girl named Rose, and a seventeen year old boy named Arren. Set in a fictional world where in one Kingdom, dreams are produced, and another nightmares are created. Together - though separate - they must figure out a way to stop the dangerous creatures known as Creators of Nightmares. However, along the way, Rose finds about her past, and what she finds is not altogether pleasing...

Originally intended as a ONE-SHOT, and then this happened instead.

Dragon Queen (edited): Li is a princess who desires nothing but to become a warrior. Drake is the son of the Demon King. Ray-La is a Seer. They are best friends. But on the day that they receive their dragons, it all changes for them. Li is sent on a quest that takes three years to complete. Ray-La glimpses more into a prophecy her ancestor cast. Drake trains to be a Knight. But when Li finally returns, she manages to convince her father - with the help of the Lumini Queen - to allow her and her two friends to journey into a quest that takes them deep into the Forbidden Forest. There, they discover things about themselves and each other that change their fates forever.

Dragon Warrior:The sequel to Dragon Queen. Unfortunately, I can give no description without giving away parts of DQ. I actually had this written first... But then I decided that it needed a first book so everything in this one would make sense.

Bowels of the Underneath: A story that does not have a happy ending // A man's ten journal entries as his people undergoes a horrible fate.

Crimson Midnight: A one-shot // She heard the howls, the growls, and the snarls. Clutching her silver dagger, she sets out to find out what makes that noise... She can only hope it is not what she thinks it is.
