A Five Year Journey

When I was leaving middle school I was having problems with school. I had always had problems in school because I was ahead of my class due to different educational systems when I transferred in. I was learning at a 12th grade level and then suddenly I wasn't anymore. So I struggled with caring and applying myself to get the grades that all of me teachers told me i could get but it was just really hard for me to get that. So my mother gave me a choice, if i got good grades and good reports from my teachers and did all of my work, etc, she would give me a new book every week. The first book I got was Vampire Academy.
I fell so in love with this book and I had such a passion for both reading and writing that i decided to start writing a fanfiction. I knew how to write but to write with the level of prose and grace that the authors I loved wrote with was a challenge. I pushed through and kept writing and I grew phenomenally and after this growth and development, hard sweat, tons of writer's block, and much more, this story has followed me all the way to college.
After 5 years of hard work and support from my friends and my followers and all of you who have read and supported me I have finally finished my first public story, fanfiction and am on my way to a sequel. I've finished works before but never a full on public story that has been submitted to judgment and critic.
I just wanted to say thank you even if no one reads this, thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting me and helping me continue! Thanks you to ScorpioGirl20 and lucky203. Thank you to bored2002 and bookluver83749. Thank you to hibetz and Chamaka and everyone else along the way for making me smile with their reviews and messages of kindness. Thank you to my best friend Ky for never letting me give up on myself and suffering through countless attempts of my writing <3  Thank you everyone who has traveled this far with me and I really appreciate it.
 You Rock! Stay tuned :) the ride isn't quite done yet >;D
