I'm Speak_Pretty, also known as Izadora Merrill.

I'm seventeen, and I just finished my second full length novel (the first was a dud, when I was fifteen). I'm looking for some high-and-mighty editors for it right now, other than my friends and parents. It's called 'Just', and I'm about 1/6 of the way through the first draft of its sequel, 'Be'. ('Just', 'Be', & 'Here' - it's a trilogy). Its genre is "urban fantasy", which is defined as: a subset of contemporary fantasy, consisting of supernatural content set in contemporary, real-world, urban settings, as opposed to 'traditional' fantasy set in wholly imaginary landscapes. It involves some black spirits as the bad guys, good guys called Nixies, and one confused girl who ends up befriending a spirit AND a Nixie...

I'm also an avid editor. I've edited one published book, The Keeping Up by Larissa Kay Stott, but it was self-published (SUCH a bad idea, guys!) and so it's off the market right now, but you might be able to find it still on eBay or Half. I've also edited three other novels that are in the works of seeking out and querying literary agents (cross your fingers!!). I love to edit, and if you're interested in any way, contact me and we'll talk. :)

Besides that, I live in Utah with my mom, dad, and brother, and I run track at school. I like to ski in the winter and play soccer in the summer, and I'm a big fan of smoothies, peaches, and Icees. I l-o-v-e music and I play the guitar <3. My favorite color is blue and I have a cat named Suzy. Contact me, I'd love to talk.
Interests

You're wrong about humanity. They are your greatest creation because they're better than you are. Sure, they're weak, and they cheat and steal and destroy and disappoint, but they also give and create, and they sing and dance and love. Above all, they never give up.
