i have lots of questions , but I'll only ask you one.
HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT OF "DARKEST MINDS" AS A FILM ???
As an author, could you give me some writerly advice? How do you start a book? I mean, I have so many ideas, but if the beginning isn't in sync with my story, the whole thing is off. Was it hard for you starting your books? Or does it just come naturally for you? Because I keep deleting my work, because it isn't working.
THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!AHHH! Thank sooo much for adding me.

Thank you for accepting my friend request! Love love Brightly Woven and am so excited for the Darkest Minds. I'm currently on a mission to get my older brother to read BW. I think he will like it.

Hello Alexandra, fellow author and newly acquired friend. :)Thanks for accepting my friend request.
Please take a moment to check out my profile page to see some of my current projects.
Thanks again and I put your book "Brightly Woven" on my TBR list. :)
Hi,I really enjoyed Brightly Woven- it was so different from a lot of what I've read recently! I read mostly young adult, and often fantasy, but I was really impressed with how original the story was.I had to say hello because I also went to WM (tribe pride!) and was so excited when I discovered you went there too.
Looking forward to more great books from you in the future...keep making the 'burg proud!
Thanks for accepting me! I'm just about to finish Brightly Woven! (And loving it, by the way)
Thanks for the add! I am literally dying to read Brightly Woven! Especially since I've read only raves about it so far! March cant come soon enough! :]
