Writing

Since you don't know me too much, I thought I'd tell you that I've been writing stories, short stories, novels, fanfictions since I was in the 7th grade.

My first story was a mystery that turned into a life story thing that got scrapped after the final chapter of the final story. It was like a four book series that turned terrible quickly on. I completely bypassed the mystery and went straight to the relationship aspect of it. It was the best thing I wrote. It was all terrible - it was in the middle of the page, like only 50 pages, and I never had the characters in it for too long. It was simply terrible, I look back now and go, "Molly, what the FUCK were you thinking writing that?" Thankfully that's in the past and I don't even have the computer it was on anymore.

That took place between 7th to about 10th grade. I learned a lot more between those four years of schooling. I wasn't the best, I knew that and my friends were being nice and say it was great. I knew the truth. That led me into wanting to be an English major early on in high school, forgetting what I wanted to be in elementary school - to this day I still know what I wanted to be, a vet, but now looking back - I can't handle seeing sick animals, especially throwing up ones.

Anyway, back on topic, I knew I had to get better so I started a series called...actually, I don't even remember what it was but it was about the time I found my cousins on FaceBook and started to interact with them again. It was about my first ever crush (his name was Caleb) and a boy I used to play with when I was little. I had the biggest crush on both of them and I wrote about it. I got pretty far until I found out my friend actually dated Caleb and never told me about it. I scrapped it at that moment.

That lead me to Rebel Act, Karma Act, and Selfish Act. And yet, another failed attempt at a serious trilogy that got rewritten more than once under so many different names (Perfect Disaster and Don't Forget Me). It was scrapped a fews ago because I really couldn't get into it.

Recently, the last two years, I've been trying to write this winter novel for NaNoWriMo but so far, I've scrapped them before I got to the end. This year I got closer but then I got a new idea right towards the end, so I'm going to try this year.

So, on FanFiction (History is Made a Night and True to Your Heart), I have a lot of different fandoms I write about. Like Supernatural, Vampire Diaries, National Treasure, Eureka, Sherlock, Castle, and Harry Potter so far. A Consulting Detective's Babysitter is the popular one of mine, well, popular to me. Probably not to everyone else but when I have 24, 021 and counting, that's a lot. Plus reviews, favorites and alerts, it's a lot in my book.

My second popular story is Daeva and the Fallen: The Angel, the second in the six part Daeva and the Fallen/Angel series I've created.

Third is my Castle fic, entitled: Crime More Than Passion.

I'm known for my OCs. OC means Original Character but I'm branching out lately - trying to get stories out there that don't require an OC but it's a bit difficult. Anyway, that's my writing story. It wasn't like "oh, I need an outlet" it was more of *BOOM!* write.

I totally forgot to mention in yesterday's post that my FictionPress account is: Salem Mystery Project. It's not mystery project right now but I'm trying to write my own stuff again. It will take time for me to update but I'm happy with what I've got so far.

Until tomorrow!
