Hello. I'm Scott, and I love to write books. I wrote my first novel when I was fifteen, and it wasn't very good. I kept writing a book a year all through high school and while I was in college studying Literature, one of my novels, "Jimwamba," was published by Flame Books. I was finally an indie novelist, and it's been a long climb from there. Now I'm twenty-eight and live in Texas with my wonderful wife Erin, and I've never stopped working on my craft.

I care about books that are entertaining, but also books that make you think. I love quality literature and am always trying to craft something more than "just a story." I put a lot of depth into my writing because I want to attract readers who appreciate that quality in literature. 

Wattpad has been very good to me, and if you reward me with your fanship and votes, I promise to return the favor by bringing you more gritty, cerebral literature.

Don't forget to check out my webpage and add me on Facebook if you enjoy my work.

@ScottKelly LOL I actually forgot about that. My mind is more engrossed in the new stuff I'm working on. You'll read it whenever you read it; I know you're a busy man.

Good luck with your writing deal. Hope you get it. You deserve it.

@PsiElementObliterate Hey, man! Still good... busy. Very busy. I have Gyrus in mind, by the way. Sorry it's taking me a bit. 

Right now I'm doing a heavy edit of [sic], rewriting a few parts and mostly just trimming back the exposition and over-writing. No idea if I'll sign this deal or not, but I should know in a month or so... 
SCOTT! How are you?

@ScottKelly I would love to look over the beginning of your new story. I don't know if I can do it quickly because of school and stuff but if you are still looking for people to critique what u have written I would love to.

I'll read it! I loved your novels (especially [sic]) and I'd feel honoured to help out! I may not be the best at giving feedback, but I'll give it a go!
I'm guessing I private message you with an email address? That seems to be what everyone else is doing.

@Toxicology_101 My writing does have that effect on people, which is both good and bad. But that's not really why it's named [sic]... still, glad...

The opening speech about teaching her daughter 'no' is awesome. You know I love that sort of thing - abstract, poetic language worked into prose....
