J.Lynn Collins
 Author has written 1 story for Underland Chronicles. I guess I'll just blab a little about myself. I have been in print 5 times, twice in my local library writing contest, twice in my school's anthology, and once in the new addition of the Abandoned Towers Magazine. I have ideas for a billion stories but can never find the time to put them on paper. I'm hoping, this summer, to finish at least one book. My favorite books are.. well.. anything I can get my hands on that has magic, dragons, werwolfes, ect. That includes, but is not limited too, Hunger Games, Twilight, Eragon, Underland Chronicles... Music: just about anything but screamo My style of writing: come up with a character and creat a story around her (yes my main character is usually a girl and usually has a brother and sister) Favorite quotes: "Shoot for the moon, even if you miss you'll land among the stars"-Les Brown (I think), "Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most", found this on Lazyninja 09 ' s account, hope you enjoy TRUE STORY A teenage girl about 17 named Diane had gone to visit some friends one evening and time passed quickly as each shared their various experiences of the past year. She ended up staying longer than planned, and had to walk home alone. She wasn't afraid because it was a small town and she lived only a few blocks away. As she walked along under the tall elm trees, Diane asked God to keep her safe from harm and danger. When she reached the alley, which was a short cut to her house, she decided to take it. However, halfway down the alley she noticed a man standing at the end as though he were waiting for her. She became uneasy and began to pray, asking for God's protection. Instantly a comforting feeling of quietness and security wrapped round her, she felt as though someone was walking with her. When she reached the end of the alley, she walked right past the man and arrived home safely. The following day, she read in the newspaper that a young girl had been raped in the same alley just twenty minutes after she had been there. Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy and the fact that it could have been her, she began to weep. Thanking the Lord for her safety and to help this young woman, she decided to go to the police station. She felt she could recognize the man, so she told them her story. The police asked her if she would be willing to look at a lineup to see if she could identify him. She agreed and immediately pointed out the man she had seen in the alley the night before. When the man was told he had been identified, he immediately broke down and confessed. The officer thanked Diane for her bravery and asked if there was anything they could do for her. She asked if they would ask the man one question. Diane was curious as to why he had not attacked her. When the policeman asked him, he answered, "Because she wasn't alone. She had two tall men walking on either side of her." Amazingly, whether you believe or not, you're never alone. 1. My mother taught me TO APPRECIATE A JOB WELL DONE. "If you're going 2.
