Emz & Ari Opinion Page

My pen name is Ariel DaWintre. I gave myself that name because I like things on a epic grand scale and it sounded that way to me. I have loved books and poetry since I was a toddler. My first two books given to me at 1 year old was two collection of poems. I read them alot. I also loved green eggs and ham, and I still feel Dr. Seuss rules. My first serious love of books was Bram stoker's Dracula and from then on I knew I wanted to be a writer. In poetry I am a huge fan of Percy Bysshe Shelley. I had to read every vampire book I could find after that. I am also a huge fan of Percy Bysshe Shelley, Sherlock Holmes books and anything written by J.R.R.Tolkien. I like a wide range of work and I am specially drawn to anything epic.

I started to write my own novel when I was fifteen years old. I am currently still working on it, but I think that is okay because Gone with the Wind was not written in a day. I am always facinated by research and study so for me often the person behind the work is just as facinating to me. I am one of those type of readers that likes to know my favorite author's background. I am currious about what inspires them and how they got to the point they did in a novel.

I like editing, reviewing. I am not necessarily the best but I give it my all and try to put as much time into my opinions as the person who did the work.
