Some guidelines.

Hi, guys. :) So, before I established this blog, I decided I want it to be a big part of my life. I want to work at it, to promote it, and to really make it something. I do want to be a writer, after all. To keep the content coming, the blog needs to have structure, or else I know I'll forget to post. So, here are some posting guidelines, so you know what to expect (and hold me accountable for): 1) There will be 1 new story up on the 1st and 15th of every month, without fail. 2) Each story will be at least 750 words, probably more. 3) I'll share my story with at least 3 other social networks. Those 3 guidelines are going to keep this blog on track and growing. The rest of BEDA is going to be done on my personal blog (and maybe YouTube), except for the 15th, because that'll be my first story! Talk to you guys tomorrow! :)

Merp.

I BEDA'd on my personal blog today, which is One Girl One Life, in case you didn't know. Tomorrow's post will be here, so prepare yourself. ;)

Hey!

Greetings, y'all! So, here's my new blog! The primary focus is going to be short stories that I write, since I already have a personal blog. Check that out if you're interested. :)

So! You may not have a clue as to who I am. Let's fix that. (Fair warning: this part will have a ton of I, me, my's.) My name is Evelyn. I'm 16 years old and live in the US of A. I'm not totally sure what I want to do when I'm older, but I don't exactly need to yet. I know I want to write and travel and be happy, so why not start practicing? I also know for certain that I don't want to work in a stuffy cubicle working at a job I absolutely despise. :) I love to read and I get pretty swell grades and I'm persistently optimistic and I'm in love with life. I will never stop striving to be better, and I really think this blog can help me do that.

I'm scared of people's expectations of me. I'm far too easily impressionable, but somehow I always get back to myself. I'm working on doing things for me, not anyone else, and it's really fun. :) I am in love with pretty much everything. At least temporarily. I don't know why everything excites me, but I wouldn't change it for the world.

I have a twin. We look absolutely nothing alike, but I love her. :)

Writing is fun. Pure and simple. It's what I do when I'm a tad overwhelmed, when I'm ecstatic, and when I'm bored. It's what I love to do. These short stories are going to be about common things. I'm planning on making them be background stories I make up in my head about little things I see throughout the day. You'll see what I mean when I start getting them up. :) (Ooooh, intrigue.)

I'm going to be doing BEDA between my 2 blogs, which is exciting! (For you folk who don't know what BEDA is, it's Blog Every Day in April.) So, if I post on OneGirlOneLife, I'll link the post here and vice versa. This blog is going to thrive on readers' comments, so tell me what you think

I'm so happy you're taking the time to check out my blog! Thank you. :) I'll talk to you tomorrow in some form or another. ♥
