I have always liked stories.  In fact, i used to ask for notebooks so i could write my stories in them.  I really started writing in the seventh grade when my lit teacher had us doing journals every day.  They were so much fun to write about, and continued into 8th grade when my English teacher also had us writing journals.  Writing is an outlet for my imagination.  I may be 17, but my imagination hasn't died, only matured.  I have shelves full of notebooks with stories only I have read, and not a single one is finished.  It is my goal to eventually, mature these stories and actually finish them... and share them.  I never shared my stories, in fact, not even my family has read them.  However, because of this website, I'm opening up.  I've been reading people stories, and realizing there is nothing to be ashamed of or shy about in my imagination.  In fact, I should share with others, as others have done for me.  Thank you for reading this, and thank you for reading any of my stories that I have written.  Thank you for your support and encouragement.  Especially to my dear grandmother, who makes sure she reads my stories because I have written them, and provides me with so much encouragement.  I write when i have the chance or inspiration to, and, thankfully, have the notes on my phone that allows me to type whenever I want, then copy it over to wattpad when i want.  Also, thank you to my cousin for being such a huge one direction fan you got me into it, and liking all those short stories on Facebook that led me here.  Happy reading and writing to all!
