Okay, I'm not completely sure how to do this . . . I wonder, who reads these things, anyway? Updated 6/19/10

I'm a 20-something single Christian female.

Writing is my passion, though I'm not very good at it. My dream job is either as a nurse or an editor (weird combo, huh?), but I'd take anything I can get my hands on.

Oh, and two more things: I have no qualms about constructive criticism; please, please give me suggestions to make my work better. If you'd like a constructive review on a story of yours, just tell me and I'd be happy to read and review. I'm not one to slather on praise on a story unless I think it's deserved, but I think that every story has its strong points and I try to mention them in my reviews.

Thanks for reading! Walkonair

Please do not plagiarize. Many of my favorite authors on this website have had their work stolen, and I can barely even imagine how awful it must be. IT IS WRONG to steal others work, however much you want reviews, enjoyed a story, have nasty feelings toward the author, etc. In fact, I actually can't even comprehend how someone could steal someone else's personal stuff, let alone a story, which can have thousands and thousands of hours of work put into it. DON'T DO IT. If you do find a story that you think may be plagiarized, report it to the FictionPressWatchers livejournal community or contact the 'true' author.

Currently, Maranwe Telrunya, a fantastic author on this site, is organizing a weekly writing challenge. Here's a link to the details to enter:

And, a link to the picture that inspired 'Hope'.

Unfortunately, FictionPress isn't cooperating with me as I try to link to these websites. So, I guess you'll have to copy-paste instead. Sorry!
