Hi, my name is Noa… no it is not my real name because I am a chicken and physically can’t bring myself to write under my own name. I have been writing short stories for as long as I can remember. I even attempted a book back in high school. I asked my English teacher to analyze it for me and HONEY when I say it was embarrassing… I f*cking mean it. For the past 2 years I’ve been having incredibly detailed, epic dreams. When I wake up I quickly open up my notes app and type everything I can remember, then I of course text it directly to my partner who always reads them and says and I quote “woah that’s weird”. Understandably, as they are unedited blobs of word vomit that make complete sense to me, but lack anything substantial for anyone else to read. So, Ive decided to, for the first time as an adult, write. Currently, I am working on a short story that should be coming soon. This particular story is based on a dream that left me contemplating my life. That is probably way more dramatic sounding than this will actually be, but have you ever had one of those dreams? One of those dreams that are either so beautiful or so epic or so horrific that it leaves you speechless? One of those dreams that have you daydreaming for days? Again, this short story will probably not live up to that expectation, but I think it’s got a shot at it. Which is why I am asking, especially since this will be my first published work, if after you read it, you comment on it, make me think about it, help me improve it. I can’t wait for you all to read it! This work will be titled, Amaranth Gate.
