Aspiring novelist-to-be

[eugeniab_427]

Hi everybody,
My name is Eugenia, and I am really excited to be part of this book club. Right now I'm 22 and I'm pursuing an AA degree in English and a certificate in Creative Writing. I am also writing my first novel in my book series. It's hard and a lot of work, but I'm getting there. The hardest thing about writing a novel for me is being patient, because I can't force good ideas to come right away, and being organized with notebooks and notes. Other than that, it's something I love doing.
Reading is also what I love doing, and I do it because it's how I learn about how other authors write their stories, and as readers we get to learn plenty of new things and discuss them. I volunteer once a week at my local library, where I'm in their back room, sorting through donated books with my co-worker for the library's bookstore. We go through books of every genre, movies on DVD and VHS, and CDs. I love what I do there, and every now and then she would recommend me something if we came across it, or if I found something instead. Currently I'm reading the Harry Potter books and Nicholas Sparks's A Walk To Remember, and hopefully I will move on The Guardian (also by Nicholas Sparks), Marley & Me, and To Kill A Mocking Bird.

Also 22, and also working on a novel, hey hey!

Welcome aboard! Your job at the library sounds fun and really soothing, I bet you have the right kind of critical eye for writing book reviews.
