Los Angeles.
An iconic city that sprawls in Southern California.
Some call it 'the big leagues'.
Some call it 'a hunting ground for actors and directors alike'.
Me? I call it a place to pursue my passion: writing.
Hi, my name is Amanda Simmons.
I'm a girl in my mid-20s, just graduated out of university.
I have a degree in Journalism and in English Language Arts.
I went for those courses to further elope me into the roots of writers everywhere.
Some call writing 'boring' or a 'waste of time'.
That's probably because they haven't touched a book, not even with a ten foot pole.
It's sad, really. If only people can see how beautiful, artistic, and even empowering writing can really be.
Oh, what am I saying? They're too into Fortnite, it's rotting whatever is left of their brains!
Anyways...
I have been publishing stories online, as baby steps.
I don't get much attention for my 'works' -- if you can call ships between two fictional individuals that -- but a small audience is better than ashes and dust in a cold, empty theater!
My biggest critic of them all, though?
My best friend, Hayley.
Boy, does she love pointing out even the smallest errors.
I swear, she could be the female version of MrEnter.
Minus the atrocities, of course. Ahahaha!
I'm not funny. Thank god I'm no stand-up comedian.
Anyways, she's really nitpicky, but the number one thing she LOVES, and I do mean LOVES to talk about is clichès.
This... is where it begins.
Oh, gooood...
