Look. (Grownups skip this paragraph.) I'm not about to tell you this book has a tragic ending. I already said in the very first line how it was my favorite in all the world. But there's a lot of bad stuff coming.

Hey everyone, I'm Kayla. I'm sixteennn. (seventeen in December)

I try to write a little something everyday, even if I can't post it. Writing has always been a form of stress relief for me and has recently become a passion.

The story that I'm writing right now is titled Of Raindrops, Flowers, and Wishing Wells. It's Marauder Era about how James and Lily fell in love.

“Don’t settle for someone who kisses up to you all the time. Wait for the guy who knows how to make you angry and does so on a regular basis. The guy who will be honest with you and tell you if you look ridiculous or that you’re acting stupid. Because love was never meant to be easy. It was meant to be worth it.”
- Stella Redwood, Of Raindrops, Flowers, and Wishing Wells

I'm a Beta Reader!

I will beta read for two writers at a time and am currently reading for Hannah In Wonderland (Read Disasters of Vacationing) and Kuri333 (check out Tonks' Tale! I started out just beta reading, but now I'm hooked to the story as well, it's very good).

I will do a single chapter here in there for other authors in need of a temporary beta while working on the others.

My favorite pairings are as follows:

Harry Potter - James/Lily; Alicia/George; Katie/Lee; Katie/Fred; Fred/Angelina; Ron/Hermione; Draco/Luna or Draco/Ginny (occasionally); Harry/Ginny; Dumbledore/Madam Pomfrey! (Haha, JUST KIDDING)

I love to write about the Marauder Era the most. There is just so much freedom to do whatever you want with it. I also love writing about the lives of Fred, George & Co. Again, there's a lot of wiggle room. I am planning on writing a full length Fred & George fic. It will start in their first year and continue until soon after the Battle of Hogwarts. Genres will be Romance/Humor. Main pairings will be George/Alicia, Fred/Angelina, Lee/Katie with references to Harry/Ginny and Ron/Hermione. It will be canon! Look for it towards the end of Of Raindrops, Flowers, and Wishing Wells (though I still have no idea when that will be :P)

"And that’s the thing about Harry, why being around him makes you grow up that much quicker and better. He makes you notice the important things, because he doesn’t see anything else."
- Ron in Opalish's A Right Hufflepuff

Girls
are like
apples on trees.
The best ones are
at the top of the tree.The
boys don't want to reach
for the good ones because they
are afraid of falling and getting hurt.
Instead, they just get the rotten apples
from the ground that aren't as good,
but easy. So the apples at the top think
something is wrong with them, when in
reality, they're amazing. They just
have to wait for the right boy to
come along, the one who's
brave enough to
climb all
the way
to the top
of the tree.
