I started getting into writing in junior high and finished my very first story just before high school. I've been writing since (granted that's not a long time as I'm still in high school), but I've always been really self conscious about everything I write. I rarely shared anything with anyone, save for a few people that got snippets of my stories here and there. I finally decided to shut my trap and get an online account somewhere so I could publish my stuff after my family and friends telling me I should, so here ya go.
