Writing

Ever since I was about five years old, I have loved to write. Mostly fantasy, but I have tried other genres, like Historical fiction, mystery, adventure and a few others. In third grade, I think it was, there was a class assignment to write a story, and my story was about a cat who accidentally got captured and taken into the kingdom of the dogs. I have changed that story to human version, but am still working on it. It is currently titled Aly, but I don't know how long that will stick :) In 2009, during NaNoWriMo*, I started a story about foxes, called The Perilous Journey. By the time it was finished it was about 8000 words. Now that I look back on it, I can tell how childish it was....Anyway, if you want to know about it, just go here, to this website I made (when I was about ten, mind you): http://booksbyleannabelcher.wikispaces.com/The+Perilous+Journey
Aly is also on that website, if you want to find it. I think during the 2010 NaNo, I started writing a book (I didn't actually have a name for it then) that was basically based off of the game Poptropica (Yes I played Poptropica). If you want to know more about it, it is also on that website, http://booksbyleannabelcher.wikispaces.com/
In 2011, I think, I wrote a second part to The Perilous Journey, but nothing much came of that. Please remember, My writing has changed a lot since those days, so how I write now is VERY different from the above stories :) But anyway, I have always wanted to write a good fantasy, like a fairy tale, you know? Well, last november, On NaNoWriMo*, I started writing a fantasy and 15,000 words was my goal. I wrote 15,000 words in that month, and I hope that this book can be actually published once I get the normal amount of words (I think at least 50,000-100,000, but I'm not sure), if i ever do. NaNoWriMo also has an online camp during April and July, and I am doing that now, except I started in July and will be doing it for the rest of the summer. My word goal is 10,000 but I am jsut trying to write as much as I can. My story is set in Ancient China. =D See ya later! :)

*(if you don't know what NaNo is and you are 13 or younger, then you can go to this link (it is for young writers, though anyone under college age can do it): ywp.nanowrimo.org, but if you are 13 or older, you can go to this link (this is only for 13 and older, but designed more for high school/college): nanowrimo.org)
