I first started writing and uploading on an amateur website called wattpad.com. My user name there is DazedAndConfused, which actually sums me up a lot of the time!
It was on wattpad that I first shared my writing with other people. When Summer Ends was started on there in October 2010, and was completed in November 2011. It gained over 11 million reads, and came second in the 2011 Romance category in the reader voted "watty awards."
In September 2012 I self published the novel and have been suprised and very overwhelmed at the support and success that it has had. It has boggled my mind, all of it. So thank you to everyone that read it and enjoyed.
I still write on wattpad.com and have a story ongoing there at the moment, Tangled Fates. Once it is finished, I'm hoping to polish it up and publish that too.
My dream was to become a published author, I've now achieved that - which is a little hard to take in some times!!
