a 22-year-old chica from Ontario, soon to be elsewhere, Canada

I don't know what life has yet to offer me, but I know that whatever is in store has to include writing.
I'm an English major, minoring in Creative Writing at York University. I'm currently going into my fifth year. I had quite the interesting year. I found myself in a situation where I questioned myself about my writing and about whether I was made for this lifestyle. Thankfully, I didn't let a professor's teaching get in the way of my love of writing, but it was definitely eye-opening. I find inspiration everywhere (one time while in the shower and the dammed words kept disappearing after I wrote them on the foggy glass doors) and I may have tons of random scraps of paper with scribbles on them, unnamed documents on my blackberry, or short sentences on my iPod touch.
As you can see, I am an addict when it comes to writing.
I have a bad habit of not finishing my projects though, so I might be pumped to keep writing more if I get feedback and such... since it means that others are checking my works out.
I apologize if I take forever to check out your stuff, but I will; after all, I keep my word. I also apologize if my critique is too picky... I tend to look at the smallest of things.
- I like monkeys, the colour pink, random poetry, teen novels (since I want to be a teen novelist, despite my age).
- I love my mom since she practically raised me on her own after my dad died when I was 12.
- I sabotage myself by thinking too much, maybe that's why I had so much teen angst (lol).
- My trust is rarely given out to anyone who isn't in my close group of friends.
- I have big dreams but I am afraid of when they start to come true.
- English is my second language, though I came here when I was seven; Spanish is my first language.
- I like to read when everyone else is out partying.
- I don't know where I stand in life, love, and other things--but I do know that writing will always be there for me, waiting to hear me vent.
- Writing has helped me more than I can ever understand... even if it took me a while to find that out.
Feel free to ask for suggestions and thank you for checking out my stuff, I really appreciate it!

To End A Life
"Carol Ann is a woman with nothing to look forward to in life, dead-end banking job, loveless relationships, parentless solitude and her ultimate choice to end her suffering life leads her to meet Lucas Stewart, a lonely vampire who had been patiently awaiting her arrival. But a man, a secret to all, has been craving her for a much longer time, his past unknown to all and accused for something that shatters her world, who will she turn to? Who will she believe?"
Discovery
"Avery has lost her first love in a horrible accident and when her family decides to go to Pueblo, Florida for a family vacation she is resistant. She fears forgetting, hates the sunny attitude of those who don't know Jacob's outcome, but most of all, she is afraid of finding someone else to love. Then she meets Alex, a tall sunny Pueblo guy, the exact opposite of Jacob, causing her to slowly question everything and, for the first time in months, she begins to let go and be human."
