Map of Your Head



Well this is it, my first post.  I am writing a YA novel and decided to create this blog about reading and writing in general, particularly in the world of YA fiction (Although I can assure you that some posts will be about random useless topics).  I’m very new to this blogging world, so bear with me.
  
A little about me, I wrote often while in school, but once I ventured into the working world it seemed to get away from me. I have always been an avid reader of books of all types. Currently my day job is in the land of IT, but I hope to become a published author someday.

 Fiction has always struck a chord with me, because I believe that there is so much potential with what can be done with a whole world created in an author’s head. Every word teaches you a little about the person who wrote them, the “people” they are about, and yourself.

If you would like to contact me my email is thegantsrants@gmail.com
(Apparently just “gantsrants” was already taken.)
