[An Introduction]

I never know how to start blogs. I never know what to say. It’s like starting a journal, except everyone can read what I’m writing, so I always think I have to be smart or witty. It’s like writing a letter to someone you don’t know.

Actually, it’s exactly like writing a letter to someone you don’t know — I’ve done that before, and it’s just as strange.

That person never wrote me back.

I’m hoping that won’t happen here, because that would be even more awkward over the internet than it is just in a random letter.

ANYWAY, I’m Hannah. I’m going to be a senior in high school next year. I’m seventeen — eighteen in a few months. I’m writing a novel. Partially for school. Mostly because I love it.

This is my blog about that novel, about books, and about writing in general. It’s about why I love words, and why I’m a little bit crazy.

It’s going to be fun.
