Pen To Paper

by xlovestory

I'm going to give you an insight into my life. This journal has every secret and every feeling I've ever known I have. It's helped me realise things many times, and for that I am grateful. It's up to you whether you take this journey with me...

1. Prologue

Pen To Paper.

The Prologue.

This all began when my old teacher, Mrs Bradshaw, gave me this journal. I'd left school, moving on to a new one as my mother transferred, and she felt I'd need this somehow. Her exact words were,

'To let your emotions out, without using words. I'll help, trust me.'

and I knew exactly what she was talking about. My ability to not explain my feelings. Yes, I was one of those annoying people who never feel anything more than 'fine', and never let anyone see what I really felt. I keep myself to myself, and my feelings even closer. It's just who I am.

But in honour of one of my favourite teachers, I decided to use it. To try to let it out after years of keeping it in. I promised her I'd do it.

And so I did.

This is my journey, through the ups and downs of moving to Albuquerque, joining my new school, meeting new people, and meeting the one person that would change my world completely. I'm giving you an insight into my life, and you have complete control over this little window.

This is my story.

I'm Gabriella Montez.

Readers; I'm about to put pen to paper.

A new idea I am working with. It's just a little story, just something to keep my occupied, and until I can come up with a dramatic, unused and fantastic HSM fanfic plot, this will have to do.

I actually like this idea, and I got it from the book I'm reading right now, 'The Cloud Of Dust' by Charlie Boxer. If you haven't heard of it, I recommend. It's completely beautiful. I will never be able to write this anywhere near the standard he has, but I just want to see where this goes.

It'll be written in Gabriella's POV, since it's supposed to be her telling you everything and anything. It will be varied length chapters. I want it to look and feel like a real diary, something that any of us would write; I want everyone who reads this to be able to relate to it in some way. I have no doubt that some of my own thoughts and stories will enter into this.

Also, I hope to update it almost every day, just like a real diary. I really want this to get off the ground, and not sit around in my brain waiting for me to unleash it. So please give it a try.

If it wouldn't be too much to ask, a few reviews would be helpful. This story is for you: feel free to tell me what you want in it, anything you wanted me to add, and any plot lines. I have a vague idea but ideas are always welcome.

Thanks guys,
