Hello there! *waves* I’m Bella, a fifteen-year-old homeschooled farmgirl. Below are some facts about me, so if you see anything we have in common, feel free to leave a comment! I love chatting and getting to know people.
- I’m the oldest of seven, the youngest being just over a year old. My life is crazy hectic, but I love every loud, insane second of it!
- I’m a diehard fangirl, so be prepared for lots of flailing. I’m a Star Wars addict, part of the skeleton clique (I’m most likely listening to twenty øne piløts as we speak), a Potterhead, and I’ve recently started getting into Marvel. There’s many more, but the list is way too long. Comment if you’re in any of these fandoms so we can chat! (Also, Tom Holland. Enough said.)
- I love music, and will listen all day if I can. I love twenty øne piløts, Shawn Mendes, Skillet, twenty øne piløts, Owl City, Imagine Dragons, and twenty øne piløts. Britt Nicole, Hollyn, Jamie Grace, Sia, Ed Sheeran, and also twenty øne piløts definitely make the honorable mentions list.
- I’m your typical bookdragon, with super thick books, not enough time to read them all, and a TBR ready to eat me alive. I mainly read YA fantasy, but I throw some contemporaries, dystopians, and other genres in there. My favorite authors include Marissa Meyer, Marie Lu, Maggie Stiefvater, Amanda Foody, Veronica Roth, Shannon Messenger, J.K. Rowling, and Cassandra Clare.
- I’m a proud ballet dancer. Besides ballet and pointe, I dance tap and jazz, with an occasional modern or contemporary class thrown in. I’m starting my ninth year of classes, and I’m dancing five days a week, not counting rehearsals. I’m also doing ballroom this semester!
- I love to sing. I don’t do it a lot, but I’ve taken voice lessons before, and I really love expressing myself through song.
- I’m a amateur author. I’ve been scribbling down stories since before I can remember, and I’ve never stopped! (Fun fact: One year I had to sit with a notebook as part of the ensemble for a ballet, and I wrote an entire book during the duration of the performance.) I mostly write fantasy, with an occasional contemporary or dystopian idea emerging from the fairy and dragon filled recesses of my mind. I always have way too many ideas, and not enough time to write them.
If there’s something you want to know about me, leave a comment! I try to answer all comments I receive.

Hey Bella! This is Rayleigh from Literature Approved, of whom you won the Color Spectrum LED Desk lamp from. I received your email with your mailing address, but I need your full name before I can send it to you ( I emailed you back, but haven’t heard from you). Is there anyway you could reply to that email soon, otherwise I’ll have to draw a new winner and I really don’t want to do that 😦 Look forward to hearing back from you! (And you don’t need to publish this comment if you don’t want to, I just didn’t know how else to contact you).
Sincerely
Rayleigh
