"My ideas are quite simple but it turns into something quite extraordinary." - Amelia Gems

  I read my first chapter book in first grade, and I wrote my first short story in third grade.  By the age of nine I knew I had a gift not many had, I enjoyed writing.  I even liked to write essays!

  So far I have only been able to finish two novels, even though the first one was only about 20 pages.  The second novel I finished was Lucky and it is over 55,000 words which to me is an accomplishment since I have started too many stories to remember and I have finished very few!

   I am the type of writer that doesn't outline the fate of their characters.  I prefer to go with the flow.  When I wrote Lucky, I didn't know what would happen to Shea.  I didn't even know why I wanted to call it Lucky!

  Criticism helps me make my stories better, if you see a typo or don't understand what I mean in a chapter feel free to either private message me or comment about it.  I also like positive criticism...i mean who doesn't!!! :)

  I am 16 years young and I play lacrosse.  I love to bake and one day I want to open a bakery!

   I'd just like to say that I hope you enjoy my stories.  My newest one is called 30-36.  I really hope I can finish it!! 

   ENJOY!!! :)
