About Me

Hello, I am a book. A lot of my friends were on MySpace and they peer pressured me into joining. So far my experiences here have been pleasant. Upon joining, many people requested to be my friend. That made me feel warm and invited. Some of the friend requests were rather unsavory and that made me feel altogether different. All together though, the people in this place seem to be nice. Hopefully you will like me and my characters. I am looking forward to having my spine broken and tea spilled on my cover by all of you. I'm the perfect size for road trips and I already have a passport so, I'm ready to go!

why I have a pen name and why I think it's spelled wrong

I have a last name that a famous author also has. I have a first name that no one can pronounce, in fact people usually think someone has sneezed when they've uttered my name. So I thought it would be...
