This is the Beginning...

Hey readers, I'm new to this blogging thing, but I figured I might as well pick up a hobby. Unfortunately, I have this nasty habit of never finishing something I've started. So the idea behind this blog is to help me try and start a new habit of finally finishing something! Another problem, like most new writers, artists, and anyone who does any type of work in general, is the fact that it's difficult to share your work with other people. You become afraid of what they might think. But I am creating this blog to say, "Hey, critique me!" I want as much feedback as possible, no matter what you have to say, I want to hear it (although I may cry myself to sleep some nights).

I guess I should probably tell you guys a bit about myself shouldn't I? My name is Danielle Kennedy and I live in this tiny town in Ontario, Canada that probably no one has ever heard of before. I am currently in my second year of university and totally don't know what I want to do with my life. So basically I am hoping I don't change my mind about my program at the last minute and end up wasting a ton of money! Oops.

Random facts about me? I have double jointed thumbs, I hate feet (especially my own), and I am an extremely visual person, so whenever I come up with a new story concept (which believe me, is way too often... probably one of the reasons why I never finish anything. I'm always coming up with something new)it seems to come to life right before my eyes. So if you ever meet me in person and I stop paying attention to what your saying. Sorry, it happens. Patience is your best virtue? Yeah, if we are ever friends or are friends now, you are just going to have to suck it up.

 So the reason for this seemingly pointless blog so far: I want to create a story (or multiple stories) that you, the readers can help me stay motivated with. The idea is that I can get excited to share my work with people, and to hear what you have to add to the storyline, and what you think I should fix or keep the same.

If you want to help direct the storyline, please, let me know! I would love to hear your ideas about the concepts and different theories you may have as the story enfolds. Who knows? Maybe I will use a part of your ideas in the story (I can even cite it if you want!)
