d.f.m

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!

Working on:

 

Occasionally I write poetry, but that's more when I am in school and feel the influences of my Creative Writing class. 

Finished Works:

  • Jenna Louise
  • Avery Jones

Works I wish I'd finished, but you should still check out:
