Hello all,
I am new here having just joined. My name is Elise (or Aine, pronounced awn-ya if you would like...this is the name my family call me) and I have just graduated from high school and am 17 years old. I live in Sydney, Australia but I grew up in County Tipperary, Ireland in the towns of Bansha and Tipperary.
Writing is what I am passionate about. I believe with every ounce of my being that written words can change the world. I love to write and have so for as long as I can recall. I believe I started journaling daily at about 6 and it has continued since then. I write poetry, narratives, scripts, feature articles and opinion pieces and I recently completed my third novel. I plan on pursuing a career in journalism and it is my goal to one day have a novel published. My dream is to win a Pulitzer.
Besides writing my other interests are politics, social justice, HIV/AIDS, debating, public speaking, music (especially playing my piano, guitar and violin) and conserving the environment. I am an active protester, a vegetarian (but don't be fooled, I am not a left wing fanatic, although I do hold a lot of left wing sentiments I do also have some right wing views) and one day I want to live in New York.
Well I hope this has given you a brief introduction into who I am and I am looking forward to getting to know you all!
-Elise
