"Natalia-Michelle what are you doing?" my Mom called to me. "I'm reading a book..." I call out. Hi, my name is Natalia-Michelle Fournier, I am 15 years old. And I love to read and write stories. I have always loved reading books and when I was 7, I felt like I wanted to do something more. I wanted to create and write my own stories. You see, when I was in 3rd grade we read books about the character Skippyjon Jones by Judith Byron Schachner. I enjoyed reading her stories. So, I decided to write. After I finished my first story and presented it to my parents, I knew that I wanted to become an author and write stories for everyone to enjoy. That became my life goal. As the years passed, I wrote about 10 stories That I shared with my family. When I entered middle school, I wanted to be more serious and get the stories and novels that I intend to write in the years to come to be published. I entered creative writing clubs and started to write novels that I didn't know I could write. I started dreaming about new stories that I should create. Now that I'm in high school, my dream advances. Having explored new writing skills, I can write more at ease now. Has life continues through this year, I don't know what lies ahead. However, I know that God knows about it. He gave me Jesus, and that is the person who walks with me always. He walks with me and talks with me. He tells me what I should write because he knows best. May God bless you all. "The Lord bless thee and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee and give thee peace." Numbers 6:24-26
