Hullo everyone! I know most of ya’ll from Kingdom Pen, but I see a few people I’ve not yet met, so to all of you, it’s a pleasure to meet you. 🙂

I go by the name Corissa and am currently a high school student taking dual credit college classes with the goal of earning a Bachelor’s in English and becoming a writer/book editor. Other than school, my days are also filled with reporting for the college paper, leading the girls choir at church, helping care for my 3-year-old brother, practicing piano/giving piano lessons, looking for good excuses to go outside, volunteering with the Good News Club my church is starting TODAY (prayers would be appreciated), and, when I find the time, writing.

Lately, the little bit of writing I’ve had time for has been either poetry or a weird paragraph that my brain wants to turn into a story but isn’t sure exactly in what way to do that. I have several books started and 2 finished (though they need MAJOR rewriting before I’m willing to share them with anyone 😛 ). I prefer to write mysteries, action/adventure stories, Lamplighter-type stories (can someone help me figure out a genre for that? I mean the ones that aren’t mysteries, like House of Love or The Giant Killer), and historical fiction, though I’ve also dabbled in fantasy.

I love the idea of the guilds because I think they will give me the extra push I need to start really getting somewhere, and I can’t wait to get started! 😀
