How it all began, and how it is now.

Writing is literally the air I breathe. I'm always writing, or wanting to write, or thinking about writing, so on and so forth. I have notebook and pen addiction (both of which I take with me everywhere), I buy too many books and I will confess to having read my dictionary for fun. It's the only thing I like to do and feel I do well

Haha, well i guess the trend here is that most of us are pretty shy/private in that aspect. I guess this is why we write fiction and not... celebrity based articles? haha, I dunno.

well when you do try to publish- let me know how you go about it? i'm interested to see how people actually go and do this since I heard that you needed connections (much like most of the working professional world D:). Like that kid who wrote that eragon story or something- and how he got published because his parents work in that industry.

I heard Eragon got published was because some famous author guy found the vanity-pressed version online and thought it was the shizz. Oh my god you guys. I just realized Eragon is dragon spelled with an E.

I feel dumb.

Either way, I didn't read it but I do hear that it's pretty terrible.

Haha, I bet he was typing 'dragon' one day when his finger slipped and hit the 'E' and he was like, 'WHOA. GENIUS.' Imagine, it could've also been named 'Fragon,' or 'Sragon,' or 'Cragon,' or the elvish, 'Rragon,' and 'Xragon.'

this is a bit random of me, but I had to tell you that reading that made me choke on my orange juice.

the world missed out on so many beautiful names!
