Blog #1--About me--

First blog: Hello!
My name is Chloé. I live in Quebec, Canada and I speak mostly English. :P I am an aspiring writer with plenty of ideas I think the adolescent populace of this day and age (early 21st century) will enjoy. Though I am now growing older and the books that I've started writing a few years ago are already less appealing to me, and I am falling into the young adult and adult category. Philosophical questions and odd dynamics between characters are emerging more and more as I continue my daily writing. Now that I've created a whole universe, I just had to kick my butt and start editing. This, or find a friend at my Uni. that could edit my stuff for later credit. I want to publish and I heard creating a blog and getting followers was a good idea. Publishing companies want you to have a following to assure sales and maybe a niche. Ahh... a niche. Mine would be... quite nichie yes...
Small update: I've started 'Because Nom' which is my recipe blog posts with recipes in them. Enjoy!!
Larger update: Looking back on when I wrote this, I was a different individual. Nowadays, I'm more proocupied with the greater questions of the human being, why are we here? Who are we? I like to think that life is as easy as just finding happiness, being comfortable with your body, with your soul. However, like one of my friends told me yesterday, the only certainty is uncertainty. It's probably a quote from someone, but hey, I'm saying it now, doesn't that now make it mine? Don't worry, though, I haven't stopped writing. I still jump from reality to reality once in a while, suspending even my own disbelief. I am in Religion now, and I plan on going for a Masters degree, at least! in order to teach in a CEGEP. I would really like that. I don't know, maybe I'll upgrade to teaching in a University. I want to be the best I can be in what I really love. :3


Character of the day:
Trevor McAllinway

Appearances: Faceless, Shambles, Santa Forgives, Pillow Talk, Needle and Chain, Ashenlust.
Bio: Trevor has his own POV book, Faceless, where he discovers his homosexuality and has to deal with the pressure around this. One of my only slice-of-life books, but unlike Puzzle Days, Faceless has Werewolves as a supernatural undertone that does not really take over the plot but adds the sense of a greater picture that extends past Brattleboro, Vermont, where the book is set.

Hilariously, Sucker Punch came out with Lennox House in Brattleboro and one of my character actually goes to the asylum that B. was famous for having. I don't know if it's still up today. I was called Brattleboro Retreat. I love Insane Asylums! I can't stop thinking of Alistair Grout's audio diary now!!

Thanks for following! :)

Chloé xoxo
