What can I say? I love to read which lead to a love of writing. Simple as that.
You want more detail? Ok fine.
To be honest with you I feel lost in this sea of stories (I know corny metaphor) but I just hope my voice can be heard, as all should. So once I finish writing my story I'll upload the first chapter and see how things go. Will it be a waste of time? Or will I become a front runner in for an award? But that's not what matters. What matters then? As a writer, you have to feel like what you're writing is worth writing and that someone will read it. What matters is that someone out there will enjoy what I'm writing, besides my family and my best friend.  
So once I've uploaded please give me any CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. I hope my writing can make a difference and have someone connect with my stories. I hope I can be a real writer. 
Love, 
Tess

So you know how I promised you guys another chapter while I'm on break? Well, I did. Not only that, but it's probably the longest chapter in the entire book (and the second to last one). You're welcome :) 
I really want to know what you guys think on this one. I'm serious now. Lots of comments please!
