I see houses and people blurred by. People walking around and passing each other with smiles. Old and new buildings, with dirty walls and bright signs.
I see cars ahead of me, with smoke and oil leaking out.
I see my mother to my left, her gaze set ahead of her.
Everything is different everyday, no matter how many times I take the same path.

Writers as readers
1. What do you need to read?
I like to sit at a angle when I read so i try and place blankets between me and the armrest so it doesnt dig into my side. If I'm too lazy to go sit on the couch then I'll just lay on my stomach in bed and read but I have to switch between laying on my stamch and my back because my head starts to hurt.
2. What genres do you like?
I enjoy a lot of comedy or adventure/fantasy books because most of the time the plot is interesting and the characters have decent backgrounds. Lately I've really been into horror books after I read The Dead girls of Hysteria Hall.
3. WHat are your best memories with reading?
Well when I was younger my mom would go to her room to read and leave me alone in the other room, so I started reading myself to have something to do. I wouldn't say it's the best memory but It's one of my earliest.
4. What was you first book you remeber reading.
I've read a lot of books at one time but there was one book, "a bad case of the stripes" that I read in elementry that I loved. It was colourful and funny and I wish I had a copy.
5.What's your favourite series?
I adore the Percy Jackson series. It was the first long book series I read and it got me intresrted in Mythology and Myths and fantasy. I actually never planned to read it until in fourth grade when our english class played the audio book for us and I got into the plot I had to read it for myself. I own the First, third, and fourth book and it's one of my personal favourites.

memorable passages
This is a passage (really more of a quote) from one of the first "scary" books I read when I was younger
Deep, Dark, And Dangerous
"The ghost is very sad and lonely. She wants to go home, but she's down deep, deep, deep in the water. She's been there so long, she's just bones. No one knows where she is."
I really enjoyed reading this book because it was one of the first books I found really instresting and thrilling. I still have the book and I've read it about 8 times by now, I 've really gotten into reading thriller books lately and that was my first one.
The storty was about this girl and her younger sister who are taken to this cabin near a lake by their mom from when she and her sister were younger. The girl doesnt want to be there and is forced to watch her sister as her mom spends her day painting. One day her younger sister meets this girl Missy who is her age, Missy is sorta dark and keeps trying to get the younger sister to do these things. The main girl starts finding things that belonged to a different girl than her mother or aunt but when she tries asking her mom changes the subject. Her sister ends up getting tricked into canoeing with Missy so she follows to keep them safe, but as they're out there Missy tries to drown her younger sister. She gets her sister home and forces her mother to come clean. Her mother tells her that there was another sister who they picked on, and one day they went canoeing but the youngest didnt know how to swim, so the aunt pushed her to force her to swim but she never came back up. So they panicked and went back and staged the thing like a accident. Missy finally acheives closer after the mom tells the police and they find her bones.
