Intro

Writing has always been in my life, probably as long as I can remember. I had no author, or family member, or even a friend that got me hooked into writing, just at a very young age I discovered my passion for writing on my own. Reading never has given me more joy than writing has, writing... just seems like its a part of me. In reading, I feel as if i get lost in the story, sometimes I don't understand it and it becomes extremely boring, but with writing, its my own words, its my feelings, I know exactly what I was thinking when I wrote every word.
I'm not always very good at expressing myself through words or through my appearance, but writing makes me able to pour my heart onto the paper, and people can really understand who I am through my wiriting. Writing always seems to calm me also, I can put all of my emotions that I am feeling at that moment in my writing. If you don't like a certain situation in your life, you can create your own situation that you wish you were in with your imagination, anything can happen when you are the writer. You can make a story, your own world, another life.
I have always been writing, ever since I was a little girl. Before I learned to write, probably before kindergarten, I would draw pictures to show what was happening in my little stories I would create. Once I learned how to write sentences and how to write words, I was on my way! My journals, and stacks of white paper, were full of tales about the handsome princes, the beautiful princesses, and the evil bad guys. To this day, I am constently finding my old work in boxes I haven't seen for years. Throughout elementary school and junior high I wrote in so many different types of writing. I submitted plays, essays, poems, and many stories into different competitions, and won most of them. Sure, I had my dissapointments, and my low points, but I never wanted to give up my passion.
I love to write in pretty much all ways. I love writing plays, screenplays, poems, but most of all, stories. I love writing a good romantic novel, creating a relationship out of true love and fate, in which most of the time I wish I was the lead female character, so I could live happily ever after with the man of my dreams. :) Obviously the fairytales I daydreamed about when I was a little girl still haven't gone away, maybe a little bit more mature now, but still are there.
My whole life, every single time someone has asked me 'what do you want to be when you grow up?'I always answered that I wanted to be an author. And to this day, that is still true. It would actually be a dream job for me, and I admire all of the famous authors out there, most of them living my dream. My plans for the future, I hope, will lead me to my dream some day.
