On Writing:

Writing has always been a part of me, ever since I could remember. Even when I could not write, I lived within my imagination and the worlds I had created. I never once interacted with the worlds when I was little, but watched other people go through them, each with their own story and daily life.

I love to write fantasy, it is my passion. I love the idea of getting lost in a make believe world where anything is possible yet still within the realm of realism. Since I was 10 years old, I have been re-creating and evolving one particular world and it's characters. I've finally settled down and decided to write about these characters I have grown up with.

I used to write quite a bit of poetry, but the call of writing a novel has completely taken over my creative mind and I feel compelled to tell this story.

The Personal Stuff:

-I am pregnant, due January 28th, 2010, with a little girl. Her name is Dahlia.



-My short term goal in life is to have a book published by 20.

-I have had bulimia for 8 years. I don't take it seriously or view it as a huge complication in my life right now, though I have been to in-patient treatment for it. However, I despise people who use eating disorders as tools to gain sympathy, and those who treat it as though it is not a mental illness. For some, anorexia and bulimia are fads and trends, and for those who suffer from it are killing themselves. I do not take MY disorder seriously, but I take the subject of eating disorders seriously. Do not lecture on the subject of it, do not make fun of it, unless you have been through it.

-I am terrified of the future. I hate thinking about all the uncertainty that comes with living life. I have my plans for life, and they are very exact. I do not fear getting older, nor do I fear growing up. I fear what lies ahead that could throw me off my course. I've had to redo my plans for life over and over, and I feel an intense amount of anxiety over the fact that I will undoubtedly have to redo those plans again.

-I was forced to grow up at a young age. I missed out on a lot of aspects of my childhood, and while I don't feel as though it has affected me negatively, it does show in who I am and how I have fun. I have fun climbing trees, playing on swing sets, going on make believe adventures, and playing house in big boxes. I take joy in children's movies, sleep with stuffed animals, and get distraught over silly things.

-I firmly believe that Twilight and Stephanie Meyer are one of the worst things to happen to American pop culture since rap music. Stephanie Meyer is a writer of mediocre talent, and the only thing she has going for her is the fact that she CAN tell a story. She wrote those books in way that you want to finish them and find out what happens to the characters. Her books are easy to read, and the characters are so cardboard and bland that it is easy for a female to picture herself as Bella instead of Bella being a real character. As far are characterization, plot, relationships, and all the other things important to writing a book, she has completely failed at.
