My first blog entry! Wow. A few hours ago, I wasn't really sure what I should write about. Everyone makes it seem so easy - just find a topic and type about it. Some people even said that I didn't need a topic to write about. So, as I stared at this intimidatingly huge text box, I was desperately searching for answers of what to write about. I mean, first impressions are important, right? I knew I couldn't mess this up. Then I knew that if people are going to even read my blog, they will probably want to know about the author first. So that's when I decided to write about myself (honestly, this is one of my favorite subjects; I can talk about myself for hours!). For today's blog entry, you'll get to learn a little bit about me. But, before you start, you should probably know that I'm thirteen years old.

What are some things you like to do in your free time?

There are lots of things I like to do. One of the most obvious things is what I'm doing now - writing. I write make-believe stories all the time; most of the time just for fun. I also love to read. Some of my most favorite books are a part of book series: the Harry Potter series, Twilight, the Hunger Games, and Divergent. There are obviously a lot of other books I favorite out there as well, but those are the ones I can name off of the top of my head.

I also like to watch tv. My favorite tv show of all time is Once Upon a Time (although the seventh season is awful). The show I am currently watching is Vampire Diaries. If you're watching it, please comment who your favorite character is. Mine is Damon Salvatore all the way.

What are some of your "Favorite Things"?

Honestly, most of my favorite things change within every day. It mainly depends on what mood I am in. For example, my favorite singer used to be Olivia Rodrigo (do you see the keywords, used to be?). Here are some of my current favorite things, though.

Color: Baby Blue
Animal: Elephants (always has been and always will be)
TV Show: Stranger Things
Movie: ???
Food: Ribs or anything that has sugar as an ingredient
Flowers: Daffodils
Store: Barnes and Noble
Drink: Water
Sport: Basketball (although I cannot play it)
Ice cream Flavor: Mint chocolate-chip

Who are your best friends? Why are these people your best friends?

I don't have any best friends at the moment, besides my mom. This school year is a fresh start for me, and I hope to find a couple of new, better friends for myself!

This is all for today. I hope you like this! Feel free to comment or give a review. Be as honest as you like, I love when people give me feedback!!

Love you guys :)

Hey guys, I have bad news.

Today is my last day on WdC - at least until the next three months. I will try my best to log in if my parents allow me to, but I can guarantee this. I have only been on this site for, what? A month? It hasn't been that long, but I have seen my writing and creativity improve nonetheless. Everyone here so far has been incredibly supporting and kind, but these are just a few people that have really stood out to me:

First off, the person I have enjoyed the most on this site, Spring in my Sox . She is incredibly supportive and encouraging, and I think the first true friend I have made on this site. I always like to look on my blog to see the nice comments she has written for me, which always brighten my day. If you haven't seen anything by her yet, just pop onto her portfolio. You won't be disappointed.

These are the other people on here who I have found inspiring in one way or another with either their writing or their kindness:

Sumojo
Schnujo is Late to Lannister
Richard ~ Shenanigans INC.
Lilith of House Martell
Princess Megan Rose GOT Fox

Jaeyne of the Free Fab Five

Next, I would just like to point out a few contests I think should be recognized. First, one contest I have really enjoyed, called "The Writer's Cramp." If you are feeling like you have been lacking in creativity or having a bit of writer's block, this is the contest to use. With a new prompt everyday, the winner of that prompt will receive 10K GPs.

Thank you to all of you for being so encouraging and kind. I appreciate it. This past month has been a good one. I have a few items in my portfolio that haven't been reviewed. I would highly appreciate anyone who took a look at them - even a short review is fine by me.

Have an awesome day, guys!
