Biography:
My life in a nutshell: I was born in Brimmerton, WA at 2:03 am, which is probably where I get my night owl tendencies. Upon beginning my schooling, my passion was mathematics until about fifth grade, when a twist of fate made me the winner of a contest in elementary. Ever since that day, writing and I have been inseperable, and I am proud to say that my skills have bettered since then.
As one of those geeky bookworm types who is also very random, the teasing by my peers began in 3rd grade and followed me until the bitter end at the high school from hades. Now, I attend college, pursuing a degreein adolescent education and English, with a writing concentration. I am also still considering a minor in math due to my high skills at it, but I do belive two degrees are more than enough for the moment. After completing college, I plan to pursue a Master's in English and quite possibly a Doctorate so that I may teach at a higher level if I choose to.
I am notorious for writing too much, as every single paper I have ever written is at least one page over what was assigned. That also explains why the chapters of my novel are so painfully huge and why people seldom review my work. Quite recently, I have returned to poetry, though for quite some time, I did loathe it, and I have also composed several short stories I may post here if I feel compelled.
I am also notorious for my perfectionism (draft 7 of the same book, the same idea, the same characters, the same setting, but subtle plot changes and major changes to the dialogue have been made, not to mention I have been getting increasingly better since entering college). It's not that I lack other ideas; it's just that that book has consumed six years of my life, and I would certainly hate to think that those six years were only useful for improvement.
And... that's my life in a nutshell. My apolgies for the abrupt ending.
