Hello, readers!

My name is Annie Barde. I am currently going through a period of name changing. Got to keep the mystery going, right? I am 17 years old with a complicated history. I have had plenty of problems: moving, teasing, failing, being friendless, holding my first job and then not, and my first boyfriend being a complete jerk. I should like to think that I've had 8 "relationships" from the age of 11 until now. Boys that I have told I liked, asked me to dance with them, I have been set up with, I had a date with, have asked me out, and asked me to be their girlfriend is a relationship in my book.

Personally, I enjoy many things. Books, magazines, writing, singing, dancing, creating lyrics, TV, feeling the warm clothes that come out of the dryer, friends, family, food, sunny days, blankets, money, make up, gel pens, being in comfy clothes...the list goes on and on.

I also enjoy favorite media. My top three favorite movies are: The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, and Grease. Shows include: Life with Derek, Degrassi: The Next Generation, and all the CSIs. Guess that was really 5 shows, huh? Books include: The S.A.S.S. series, Harry Potter series, and The Catcher in the Rye. Let me know if you want my opinion on anything else.

Favorite ships? Well, if I told you, it would make you either change your mind or not read my stories.

Projects to come include:

• Ce feu jamais vert (The light is never green) -- A young French woman goes through life with drama, tragedy, and insecurity.

• Hollies Court -- The hard times of four families result in positive and negative experiences.

• Fifteenth Summer -- Life of a teenage girl is written in her diary as her family makes a road trip across the country.

• The Amoré Letters -- Meet Oliver and Angelica, who learn to fall in love online.

• The Secret Admirers Club -- Four women try to find out who is sending them love letters using clues.

• Ice Breaker -- Opposites attract in a club between a plain Jane and a bad boy.

• Champagne's Brandy -- Thomas Champagne and Brandy Rice. He's everything she can't have and she's everything he doesn't want.

• Hired Love -- Ethan Rhodes needs a companion. Sophie Lachlan is his answer.

PLEASE NOTE: ALL OF THESE WORKS ARE MINE AND I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF NO ONE TOOK MY IDEAS. I AM SERIOUSLY THINKING ABOUT PUBLISHING THEM SOMEDAY AND AM ONLY WRITING ON FANFICTION TO GET MY WRITING NOTICED. PLEASE DO NOT TAKE!

I cannot wait to read your reviews and share these stories with you! Take care!

Love,

~ Annie
