Well, I've been on this site awhile but never really bothered to come over to the community section...until now :? I know, sounds bad. But I guess I just thought that I should introduce myself.

My name is Ashley.
I'm 16 years old and almost one-third the way through my junior year of high school.
I have no idea where I want to go to college or what profession I want to go into so don't pester me.
I have a huge love of animals, and own a hamster named Midnight.
I also am, obviously, a writer (or a wanna-be) and I have never finished one of my stories (beside short stories).
I used to be super-shy and still kind of am, so I guess don't expect me to go right up to you and talk like I've known you my whole life.
I used to play basketball and it used to be an obsession of mine, but I have quit this year (long story)
I usually have a smile on my face so when I don't, most people know that something is wrong.

Well, this was a pretty random blub but hopefully you all can make some sense of it :wink:

Hope to learn more about all the rest of you! :D

Hey ashleylee. Welcome to YWS lol

I'm like you in the shy department. I can't walk up to anyone and say hi, it just feels weird to me.

True love, in all it’s celestial charm, and
star-crossed ways, only exist in a writer’s
mind, for humans have not yet learned
how to manifest it.

I used to be shy, but once I got to college I opened right up. :)

You'll be fine. And it's okay if you haven't finished a story yet - you're 16, you have so much time to. Just keep trying! Anyway, you've been around YWS for a while - I've reviewed your stuff. :P

Almost done with high school too, or at least you're getting there - yikes!

PM me any time.

How am I not myself?

Yeah, hopefully the same goes for me too :D

I hope to finish a story sometime in the next five years, just so I can base my other work from there.

Talk to you later,

Hey Ashley!

But you are close to finishing a story. Correct me if I am wrong but isn't Poisoned Roses close to being finished?

Kind of but not really because I have decided to do a little rewriting so I am 125 pages into it but I probably won't be adding to it for awhile, you know?

It's just not in that form yet :wink:
