Hey anyone who's reading this!

I love reading!  I love the fact that there are ordinary people out there sitting at their computers or in front of notebooks like I do and they are creating another world.  They're using words to desrcibe things tha only they will ever be able to see perfectly.  These people are typing and editing and backspacing and retyping then editing again, just t make sure that when the readers open the book the first page pops and gets your attention, and it holds you there for he rest of the book.  Those are the people that get an idea and they stick with it when it might be pointless and they get over their pathetic fears of failure and paranoia and they write until their hands cramp because they love this character, or this plot, or this idea that they need to write it unitl it is complete.  Those people are authors.

That is what I want to one day become.

How am I doing?  Alright?  Moving on, then. 

I'm pretty typical.  I'm a teenage girl with dreams of being on the New York Times Best Seller's List by the time I am twenty-five years old.  Big dream, but where did dreaming small get anyone?

I am currently working on my first yet-to-be-named novel.  But, that's not why I am here.  I am here to talk about the things hat authors create.

Authors come in many shapes, colors, and literature.  Authors can be anything from poets to novelists to a famous person who wants to write a tell-all autobiography.  They all tell stories, in some shape or form, just the same. 

So, I'm going to be talking about books.  Books I'm reading, books I've read, comparing genres and specific books and maybe even just posting a topic and letting anyone who wants to, run with it. 

So, stay tuned to see what is said and what is happening.

Because, if my dream comes trur, I'll be famous one day.

with words and love,
