I am SP. I live in the southern USA and am a teacher and a graduate student, so if I am slow to update--apologies. But, I will get back to it. Promise. I love to write, and have just gotten serious about it in the past year or so. I love Wattpad for the feedback, story contests, and community of people from all over the world. I am a positive person. Not real sure where most of my stories are headed. General ideas are great... but I tend to live my life by taking whatever comes next in stride, and my stories seem to follow. I would love to critique one of your stories and would love for you to do the same-- just let me know. I am currently working on getting A Little Bit of Fe rolling--it is my first and only attempt at anything over 7k words. Feedback is always welcome. Meeting new people is one of my favorites. Sharing ideas is a close second. So come talk to me. http://www.iamsecond.com sp.parish2@gmail.com

@sigrist Agreed! When he actually let on to what was happening, I had to go back and re-read it. He had me. Completely.

I read it (Odd Thomas) years ago and I have to say, I wish I had written that ending.

Attention friends! There's another SciFi smackdown starting in the Pub! Truthfully, one of the best things I have ever done for my writing and my social life here on Wattpad. What? You don't write SciFi? Give it a try, anyways. You'll be surprised at what the brain of yours comes up with. http://www.wattpad.com/forums/discussion/515694/0/25/sci-fi-smackdown-recruitment-drive-oorah

So, I have edited chapter nineteen of A Little Bit of Fe. You can find it here: http://www.wattpad.com/14436970-a-little-bit-of-fe-chapter-nineteen#.UYKV3Y40tpY Also, I have started working on twenty ...and! my goal is to get two chapters churned out this month. Might not sound like much, but that's a big deal for me. Looking forward to see where Jo ends up! Thanks for reading =)

@DemelzaCarlton@CharlotteAshley You ladies are more than welcome to take over my wall at anytime =) As for novel ideas, I am completely and utterly consumed with A Little Bit of Fe right now. It seems to be one of the few things my ad/hd brain can focus on, and I will take it!

A week? Um, more like a minimum of three months for that,@CharlotteAshley ! Hahaha...three-ish novels? I struggle having two at a time in mine, unless they're in the same series. Sorry,@parishsp, we kinda hijacked your message board. How many books do you have in your head?
