Hi. I'm Carmen. I like to write. What's your deal?

I finally put on my big girl pants and joined the Twitter world. Follow me HERE (:

-This is my profile. Welcome. Um, I don't really have much to say about myself right now. I decided to compact all the shit I had written out before that apparently made it look like a diary into these neat little paragraphs. Girls Just Wanna Have Fun and Isle Esme II have turned into jokes, but I keep them around because maybe I'm just a little proud they were my first ones. The King's Mistress; well, maybe I'll actually edit that for ya'll someday, thank you for your support on it. I don't know why you love it, but I makes me day(: And yeah, Thunder got it's own damn paragraph 'cause there is just too much crap to cover.

-Thunder. I apologize if you are reading this in hopes of news that I had the whole story completed and in the final stages of editing, waiting to be posted. Unfortunately, that is not the case. I am way to wrapped up in SSM to work on Thunder. And if you still love it? Thank you. I really appreciate it. Maybe after this crazy new story is over, or under wraps, I'll get back into it. But, that's a huge maybe. And I regret that. But it is what is it.

So I kinda, sorta, love Edward.

A group of ladies (a fairly large group I'd say) has started a group called Jasper's Army. They are the Bella's for these soldiers, writing letters and sending packages. What they're doing is pretty amazing! Check them out! Jasper's Army (:

-Wanna see a pretty fricken awesome banner for SSM? Well here you go. Click Here Thank you so much for the amazing banner and awesome review tg10781 and ange de l'aube! (:

-So I have a sister on this site. No, seriously, she's like my actual sister. We have the same parents. Her pen name is SimplyDazzling, if you want to check her out. She is doing me (and trust me, you) a gigantic favor but betaing Sincerely, Sergeant Masen because otherwise we could have a king's mistress fiasco...She has some pretty decent stories. I think. I haven't actually read them...

-I support our troops 104%. Part of the reason I wrote SSM was because I am so completely fasinated by the lives of soliders and their loved ones. I look at them and think about how strong a person has to be to enlist in the army in the first place, and how even stronger a person has to be to love them. I don't care if you're a democrat or a republican. But when we send our men and women over to a war zone, every single fucking American should support them or don't call yourself a part of this country. If you don't stand behind our soldiers, feel free to stand in front of them.

About me: I am the most sarcastic person you will ever meet. I do things my way. I don't write for you guys (as much as I love ya'll) I write for me. I argue like the best of lawyers. I think of myself as badass but in reality, I'm 5'2, love the color pink and squeal over puppies. I wouldn't be who I am today without the support of my family, friends, teachers and dedicated readers. Oh. And I love puns almost as much as irony.

-I also recently discovered that I am a Harry Potter nerd. Figures. Anyway, I've come to grips with the fact that Harry Potter is much more epic and just awesome than Twilight. I then realized that there can't be any good HP fanfics out because the series was so damn good already. I love the characters in Twilight, but the original books are the things that made me start writing stories in the first place. I will never write a HP fic.

"You don't get very far in life without having to be brave an awful lot. Because we all have our frightening moments and difficult trials and we have much of a choice but to get through them and it takes a lot of bravery to do that. The most important thing about bravery is this -it's not about being scared- it's about being scared and doing it anyway - thats bravery. "Ysabella Brave
