Hello From Me

Hey everyone! My name is Alysa and I'm an aspiring author. I'm in my teens and have written one book so far, two if you count a children's book. I am currently in the process of editing my novel, which I hope to publish this year. I have started this blog to to be a platform for when I send my novel to literary agents but also because I think it's just a good thing in general to have a blog. Now about me.

As I have said my name is Alysa. I love writing and horse back riding. Last year was the first year that I did something called NanoWrimo, which is the only reason I finished my novel. I would definitely recommend it to aspiring writers. I will also be heading to France this summer as a foreign exchange student. I will only be allowed to speak French and will only be able to contact my family and friends through email once a week. I'm also a huge environment nerd. I am the president of the green club at my school. I'm also the type of person who will picks the recyclables out of the garbage and yells at people who don't recycle. I'll be taking an environmental science class next year and I'm super excited.

Writing Tip: The hardest part of writing a novel is starting, so even when you don't want to write just push through and it will soon get easier.
