Hey People!

So I spend the other day redoing the entire beginning of this book.  So far I really like how it came out.  I started the girl out being 12 then going to 16/17.  Which seemed to work out a lot better and got the story moving along.  I swear this girl if she ever hopped out of this story.  I would not survive from all the things I'm going to put her through. 

Here is a sample of what the book is about. 

A girl named Cinis (latin for Ashes)  is a slave but right before her 13th bday her master or Mistress in this case is going to adopt her. But before it can happen she dies and leaves Cinis to the cruelty of her Cousin and that evil ladies children.  So as you can see this is a retelling of Cinderella in a way.  But it has a giant twist that I think will appeal to those who want a strong MC. 


I might be posting the story to Wattpad I haven't decided yet.  So how do you like this idea so far?

Where am I and HOW did I get here?


I have to say that in scared out my ever living mind!! After years of writing parts of books. I think I finally found one that I can finish. It's just a little story where I'm going to mess up this girls entire world and put her through a lot of crap. Things like breaking her fingers and shaving her hair. 

I've never been one to do posts like this. But I thought if I'm going to REALLY make a go with this. I might as well do it out in the open. 

So WELCOME!! I hope you guys don't mind me sharing stuff about me writing a book.  

Every week I'll pick a day to sit down and write and then I'll update you guys on what's going on. As I post things please let me know what you think!
