wasn't about to let y'all see my actual account.
I have moved to many places, including Germany, Kentucky, multiple places in Georgia, and the most recent is Michigan.
I have 3 siblings, an older sister, an older brother, and a little sister. I write characters with aspects and mannerisms my siblings have. My parents divorced when she was around seven. Although it wasn't traumatic and drawn out, I do know what it's like to be raised by a single parent for a while. I also know what it's like to have a toxic step-parent. I sometimes write characters with imperfect home lives and know how to make them believable.
I am a very passionate person and it reflects in my writing. She values representation on multiple levels, LGBT+, family problems, and unfairness when it comes to them. I am also very big on writing characters that have fatal flaws as I want them to not seem perfect and untouchable. That they are human and feel real to the reader.
I started writing when she was in middle school. I found my love for reading and writing when I needed an escape from things when they got too much for me. Like anything you learn at first, I struggled with it and refused to let anyone read it, I see it as awful and cringe-worthy. I write many things outside of school, novels, short stories, scenarios, poems, songs, you name it, I probably wrote it.
I often use sarcasm and relatability in my writing to an extent. I play around with different tones of dialogue and often use 4th wall breaks for comedic effect. I also describe the things around my characters as if I was there myself. I definitely think I can use more growth in narration. More of the characters thought.
