NOTE: This account is once again mostly inactive. Feel free to have a look around, though! Hello, world! My name is Caroline. I'm a collection of energy and ancient stardust, just like you (I adore the idea that we're all made up of exploded stars).
Up until last June, I was a homeschooler who was taking about a million hours of dance classes every week in tap, precision tap (think Rockette kicklines), ballet, pointe (for one year), jazz, lyrical, and hip hop. Since then, I've graduated from both my homeschool and my dance studio, and I'll be heading off to college in the fall. (My senior year of high school was so hectic that I decided to take the next year off to do the whole finding-a-college routine)
Anyone who flips through my gallery knows that I don't just dance; I write. A lot. Every day, if I can manage it. I'm able to think more clearly when I write. I started journaling daily on January 1, 2013, and I haven't stopped since. (Before that, I kept journals, but weeks or even months would go by between one entry and the next.) My journals are for the true stuff, but my notebooks contain mostly unexplored, magnificent fictional worlds in which I plop down characters and wait for them to do something. Sometimes I write stories or poems based off my life in my notebooks, but it's mostly just fiction.
None of my work has been officially published yet, but I have had some of my work printed in anthologies for programs I've attended, and I've written a commissioned screenplay for a local film acting group for kids and teens. To see some of my written work, click here:

Peter Pan, said
Be kinder than necessary. It's some of the best advice I've ever heard.
