"Writing is taking your words--no matter how ordinary they may seem--and creating something extraordinary out of them that no one else can." <-- a random quote I made up in a dream.

If you want compliments, this is not the place to look. I don't give compliments. I give critiques. I tear your work apart because I care about helping you make your work better and making mine better too.

Things to know about Jelsa:

-She loves to talk in third person.
-She can talk about herself for a really, really long time.
-She is a Grammar Nazi.
-She pretty much sticks to the general fiction genre, but she absolutely loves Harry Potter.
-She is a little crazy, but at least she admits it.
-She talks about her boyfriend and her dog way too much.

STUFF I'D LIKE TO READ (nowhere close to a complete list):
-The Wastelanders by thatcinderellastory
-Shake Me Down by AlecAcec
-Faraway Hana's new story
-Stray by Yuff

A guide on how to show, not tell. A simple acronym I created that has been very helpful to many people I've critiqued and in my own writing.

@JelsaSimoneMepsey Aw, that is so sweet of you say! It's my pleasure, really, I love "talking" to authors of whom I like the stories, it's a little like repaying them for giving me their work.

Want to find out more about me or my projects? (Yes, I'm being egotistical today.) Or are you just bored? Then take a look at my blog, which has helpful writing tips and other fun stuff like that.

I feel like a terrible person for not updating Facades very often. I'm editing it very thoroughly because I'm realizing the story's execution could be much better and I am very serious about doing a good job with this story. So hang in there if you've been reading Facades, and thanks for your support. :). I really appreciate it so much. I haven't really felt like writing much this entire year, but the little encouragements here and there from you guys really do make my day and make me feel much better about myself and my writing. You guys rock. :D
