i'm an artist. paper is my canvas. the pen is my brush. the arts is who i am...well, the most part anyway. =)
hey people! could you guys read darius young: scattered secrets for me? it's a rough draft. thanks in advance and please comment. anyway, hope you're having a great day! and if you comment i will usually reply thanking you. i like to do this to let you know i appreciate the comment. =)
my name is of unimportance at the moment. you will know my name when i am a published writer (god willing). so just wait a little (or a lot) longer to know my name. for the record, i don't give my name out online.
first off, i'm a girl from a small town that loves to write. i've always been a reader and as of last year i really got into actually writing short stories and books, but i've always been writing. i'm a perfectionist which could ultimately be my downfall, but it's working for me right now. i'm random and a little crazy, but what writer isn't. my friends get a kick out of me because i'm so different. i have my own mind, i'm not afraid to speak my mind, and often stick my foot in my mouth when i just blurt out things that come to mind. i'm a clutz and total dork, but i surprise people when i put my thoughts on paper. i'm a straight "a" student. i'm a christian and a believer; and i'm proud of it. i'm an artist; i can sketch and shade, but i prefer manga. it's so much fun to draw (by the way, my avatar is not my own work). i also love anime. my favorite anime show is nabari no ou. i also love to act and am very dramatic and expressive. er, i love music especially christian rock.
why do i write? i write mostly for myself. thoughts run through my head and i have to get them down on paper. i love the thrill that runs through me when i write. because i rarely know what i'm going to write next. writing is apart of me. no, it's who i am. it's how i express myself, it's how i communicate. it's the only thing in this world that makes sense. the only thing that will always stay the same. if i didn't write i would feel weird inside. i write because i want to. i write because i have to. it doesn't matter what others say because i don't care. writing makes me happy.
i'm looking for the right words to say, to write. but all they are, are just a jumbled mess of randomized words floating throughout my mind. and yet i try to form them into sentences that shall flow from my mind to my fingertips. only then shall i be pleased with my work. only then will the blank page have meaning. ~ siren
and that's basically me. as for my reason for being here is to see how i can improve my writing (duh!). so i will take good, hard, and constructive criticism. don't be afraid to let me know or i will never improve. so if you read all the way down to this then you know what i want out of this website because it says so in this paragraph. and...that's about it. and this was a whole lot longer than i thought. oh well! if you got all the way down here than you must be bored enough to have read this...or just curious...i'm going to stop typing now...

rule of thumb: i don't pick just anyone's book. it has to show that something special. if i like it it will go on my watch list. i don't read things with explicit vulgarity. i'm slow to getting to your book/story/poem, but i give a meaningful comment. um, i usually read about 1-2 books/stories/poems a week. so be patient. and that's about it.
did i miss anything? let me know if i did. =)
