About me: 

Alright, hmm, let's see....about me, about me... I'm fifteen-years-old, in the ninth grade, currently have a D in a computer class that I didn't even want to take (totally lost in computers--good at typing only), have raging headaches from time to time that no amount of aspirin will cure, have a weak immune system at times...hmm...usually a loyal friend, unless, you know, push comes to shove...

I guess that's about it. Birthday is in June, if anyone wants to know. I love writing and reading, currently have over three hundred books in my room, recently got intrigued by the t.v. series Supernatural....hmm, what else? Have older siblings, and younger ones, but only in my mind, for, unfortunately, I am an only child...it sucks at times, let me tell you. It's not all fun and games.

My last birthday everyone forgot, 'cept my parents and family, of course, so don't know what was so special 'bout that...what else....hmm...I usually start a lot of stories because I keep getting new ideas in my head, mostly from songs or dreams and whatnot, so beware about that....

I'm currently trying to revise The Crystal of Light, which has recently been retitled Shadow Field, but only on paper, not on this website yet. The Broken Hearted is on hold until further notice, as are a few of my other stories. I can't pick which ones I type on, I can only follow my heart as it leads me to certain stories and new ideas. Hopefully, I pray, one day I will be able to get back to all of my others and finish them. Until that day, I'm sorry, but you will have to wait, unless you can maybe give me ideas. I'm on writer's block big time over here. I ask you nicely--help me! ^_^

I go to Barnes and Noble ALL the time and spend all of my money there--I don't know why, but I just love reading. I never seem to have enough books, even when my parents declare "Enough is enough!"

Books are my best friend. They take me places in my mind, and I seem to thrive off of them. The fictional world has been my gateway to a new and exciting, wonderous life for many years now, and since I read all the time, it, sadly, has left little time for friends. I don't have many real friends anymore, and if I do hang out with someone, I really don't trust them at all, only to a certain extent. A mask has been put up, and it's hard to take off again. Very hard, indeed.

My writing experience thus far is limited to the boundaries of my mind, but give me a chance, I beg of you, for I will get better--I just need a little more time, a little more patience, and a little more experience.

I love writing about anything supernatural, bloody (maybe), scary, angsty, tearful, sappy, or just flat out weird. My likes and dislikes vary, so it really just depends on whether or not I can get into the story. If I can, I like it--if I can't, I don't.

I hope to have a book published by my next birthday, but, unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be happening. Oh well. I'll get there one day, I guess. I can hope, anyway.

Anyway, that's about it about me. I used to have depression issues--still do--no really noticed, and now I guess no one cares and I'm not up for sharing. Friends like to betray me and lie to me and whatnot, so whatever, can't trust them. Dates seem to do the same thing, so, sadly, not dating anyone right now, which is actually okay with me for the time being.

Books are my passion--writing is my life, that is all.

Peace!
My claim to fame: 
I'm currently writing a novel, The Crystal of Light. It's the first volume to The Crystals of Power. I've been working on since December 23, 2007. It is currently thirty-nine chapters and 305 pages long, and I finally made it to part two on page 291.

I'm also writing The Broken Hearted, a novel told by a man who thinks he has lost everything, and wonders if he should continue living this life of emptiness and pain. I have only been working on it since the beginning of this July, but I think I'm at least half-way through...but I digress.

Also, my novel, When the Sun Goes Down, seems to have been a big hit with some people, and I would appreciate whatever anyone else can give in feedback, for comments, negative or otherwise, are always welcome. No pain, no gain, right?

My other writing: 

The very first book that I wrote was twenty-five pages long, and it was a picture book. I did it when I was nine, and I remember I was very proud of it, but no one would read it or look at it. That upset me, and I didn't write or draw another story until I was in fifth grade at the age of eleven.

Favorite place to read: 

I love reading in my room, for it is my own personal space and is kind of closed off from everyone else. I usually lie on my bed while I read, or sit in my cushion-like blue chair with the radio on.

I also like reading anywhere that's quiet and comfortable. The library at lunch is sometimes good for that, but then it's almost too quiet, and for some reason the library at school, like every classroom, is freezing. I need a comfortable temperature, or at least a cover.

I like reading alone.
