The story of Nicole

I do believe it's time to update my bio, considering the last time I did was seven years ago...
I’m in university completing an English major with a minor in history. I would rather be writing fulltime, considering that’s all I do in class. I work at a bookstore (BESTJOB EVER) and manage the Teen Section. My dream is to get my book published in the next five years. I’ve been working on the same novel for NINE years, it went from fairies to mermaids to real people but I’ve never felt this satisfied with it until now. My favorite books are: Before I Fall – Lauren Oliver, Choker – Elizabeth Woods, Dangerous Girls – Abbigail Haas, Beautiful Lies –Jessica Warman, Harry Potter – J.K. Rowling, The Chemical Garden Trilogy – Lauren DeStefano, Interment Chronicles – Lauren DeStefano, The Secret Diamond Sisters – Michelle Madow and The Museum of Intangible Things - Wendy Wunder. My guilty pleasures include endless amounts of Glee fan-fiction and Ben & Jerry's ice cream. I own over 400 books and they’re all organized in alphabetical order by genre… I’m a tad obsessive. My biggest accomplishment’s thus far is that I have two poems and a short story published and that I got hired by Indigo, because let me tell you, they’re super prestige.

For in everything it is no easy task to find the middle ... anyone can get angry—that is easy—or give or spend money; but to do this to the right person, to the right extent, at the right time, with the right motive, and in the right way, that is not for everyone, nor is it easy; wherefore goodness is both rare and laudable and noble.
— Aristotle
