My name is Emma. Em, Emmar, Emzie, M&M, anything will do. :) I am a dreamer, a writer, a reader, and a hopeless romantic. Reading is the BEST thing that EVER happened in this world. I am a big reader, and my favorite genres are fantasy, and realistic fiction. My role models are J.K. Rowling, Suzzane Collins, Scott Westerfeld, and John Green. They've taught me so much about books and writing. Speaking of which, I'm a writer. I love writing; it's what I want to spend my life doing. I mostly write fantasy/sci-fi, and I've written tons of poems and am working on a few novels. At the present I am trying to get published. Anyone know any good publishers?

If you want to know about any of the books I'm writing, just send me a note! :)
"A thousand ways to say good-bye
A thousand ways to cry
A thousand ways to hang your hat before you
Go outside
I say good-bye good-bye good-bye
I shout it out so loud
'Cause the next time that I find my voice I might
Not remember how"--Sam Roth, Shiver, Maggie Stiefvater
InvitationBy: Shel Silverstein
If you are a dreamer, come in
If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,
I hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer...
If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire
For we have some flax-golden tales to spin.
Come in!
Come in!
EnchantedBy: Emma ♥
As my eyes absent-mindedly drift
Around the room
Not seeking any particular object
I come across
A big, brown, battered book
Laying, dusty
On the dark mahogany shelf
It seems to be
Welcoming me to another world
Calling me
My curiosity piqued, eyes wide
I pick it up
It's old pages thick and heavy with words
Another world
Waits within the binding
I open it
And the smell of ink, paper, and stories
Swirls out of the pages
As I read, my eyes drinking in the words
I know
I am home
That's an original poem that I really love!

Things I've learned:
~The best classrooms are the ones with paint splatters and license plates on the walls
~There is no moment more perfect than sitting in an art room painting chunks of wood, with the Peanuts theme song playing in the background.
~It's not okay to make mistakes. It's
important to make them.
~When things are bad, sing, no matter how bad you are. It works for me. :)
~Love is forever, so love passionately.
~It's really nice when someone asks if they can braid your hair.
~If you can forget about it easily, it's probably not worth worrying about.
~Don't stop smiling. People will miss seeing you smile.
~Don't underestimate the power of a little kindness, even if it's just your mom taking the time to make you some hot cocoa.
~Spend time with the people you love.
~Oh, and don't forget to be happy. Never forget that.
~Just making sure you got that last one. Got it? NEVER. Like, ever.
Anyway, got a book? Read it.
