Hi. Just completely deleted the run-on blabber that was once here. My name on here is Colors_of_the_Wind. You can find me on Facebook under Marie ColorsoftheWind Carter. My legal first name is Aria. I have been writing for almost a decade and I still come up with some crappy ideas and some wonderful ideas so I don't think that really goes away ever. My characters run around in my head all day, most of the time just making a ruckus nowadays, but sometimes actually yelling at me to write something. Philena is famous for that I'm that writer that loves writing cliff hangers, but hates to read them. Currently at DQ and opened my Etsy shop a little over a year ago now. I'm just starting the transition from Etsy to elsewhere and changing the name as we go because Aria's On Etsy just isn't going to work anymore. Will soon be The Wandering Squirrel and I'll update this when I have a link. I currently sell lotion, shave soap, glycerin soap, wax melts, beard oil, roll-on fragrances, lip balm, lip gloss and a few other things. #inspirationiseverywhere for these items, so the things I have listed are nowhere near the amount of things I have plans for! Check out my Facebook page linked at the bottom of this bio!Andrew (Circle_Something) and I have been going strong for a little less than 6 years now, still 4,500 miles away from each other with only Skype, letters/packages, and social media to keep us goin', so, ya know, if we can do it, so can you! Because of this, there are some mushy love poems and musings about, but... #sorrynotsorry.I write realistic fiction that usually starts as an awareness piece and evolves into something larger, as well as poetry and the once-in-a-blue-moon song. I love reading fantasy, but have tried and cannot write it, though I do enjoy supernatural, post-apocalyptic and the occasional romance. I've begun writing the sequel to my realistic fiction series called Tomorrow which you can find the first chapter of here: http://www.storiesspace.com/stories/general/today-chapter-one.aspx but I've not continued it yet because I'm working on a reboot of the original series (which is why you can't access them anymore, sorry!). I'm also working on my vampire story and one having to do with an alternate dimension or something. I'm still ironing out all those details, haha.Don't try to preach at me or pull the age card, those are big pet peeves. Other than that, I love everyone. Consult below for any other questions you may have, or message me.~A "If the reader doesn't feel what the narrator feels, the writer has failed."

Hey y'all. It's been a while since I was on here. I've recently started writing the sequel to my Tomorrow story. Philena is doing as well as can be expected in this sequel. I've written the first chapter which is quite a bit longer than I thought it would be and now am on to the second where I feel I must describe the legal process she is going through with Stepmonster, but I've never written anything of the sort. I was wondering if any of you may know, whether from experience of being in a court room in one role or another or just from writing a lot of crime stories, the order in which one may go. Who will speak first? Will they try him for her mother's murder and all the abuse she's suffered in the one go or no? What kind of questions will they ask, both the prosecution (her side) and the defense (his side)? As always, if there are any tips or extra details/info you can offer me, I certainly welcome it.Thank you :)~Aria
I used to write to let all my emotions and thoughts out onto a page, figuring if they were here or on deviantART, they couldn't hurt me too bad. Then I wrote strictly for awareness reasons on subjects such as eating disorders, depression, ptsd and various other disorders, not to mention diseases like the various cancers that are out there. Now... I don't write often, but most of my writing pops out as a musing or a rant about something or other, though I am working on the sequel to Tomorrow right now. I have yet to decide whether to share it here. If ever I find it worthy of publishing, it should probably have never been publicly available, correct?I still write for awareness occasionally and every once in a while I'll need to get out a few anxious thoughts, but most of my writing now is centered on a story I started previously.

Claustrophobia - fear of confined spacesHydrophobia - fear of waterTelephobia - fear of answering the phone or calling someone on the phone (usually seen in cases of social anxiety)I'm also rather scared of spiders, snakes, and other various insects/etc, but I do not have an actual PHOBIA of them. My fear of water is extreme- I can get in the shallow end of the pool, but that's about it, and forget about lakes and ocean water. The phone one makes my job rather stressful and getting a different job quite difficult as, while I CAN answer the phone, it's freaking terrifying. Claustrophobia is rather normal in my family and mine's not too bad. My grandma doesn't like elevators while I can tolerate them. I couldn't do closets or- as much as I want one for my bed- a coffin bed that closed, but other than that... meh.

Drip drop plop Raindrops on the rooftop Drip Drip Drop I just wanna flop Right into bed Cover up my head Close my ears to the things you said Somebody take my fears- Put them in a box… X...x...x... Metal on metal Wait for the knives to settle And the water to boil in the kettle Don't get caught by the nettle Whoosh … Wind rushing through the bush My...

“Somebody!” “Please!” “Please, somebody !” The screams fill my ears as I watch the news video play out. The gunshots punctuate every cry with a hollow shout. My heart beats like a hummingbird’s wings with the knowledge that if we do not fix this - if this just keeps going and we don't change something in our system - my nieces could have to worry about this when they go to school. When...

Long Distance isn't romantic. It isn't hidden love letters and long visits with the knowledge you'll see them again in six months. Long distance is loving someone so much it hurts to be away from them. It's knowing that they're blushing or smiling or crying just by the tone of their silence - they don't even have to giggle or speak anymore, you just know. It's dreaming that they are there...

“Once upon a time, I ripped the wings from my spine…” - Special Pets by Otep. “Can’t get your way, so you’re angry.” - Halestorm. “I can’t keep quiet…” - Quiet by Milck. “ “No!” The nightmare ends as I re-enter reality, feeling around for the lamp in the darkness of the early morning. The alarm clock alerts me to the fact that it’s only two-thirty in the A.M. and I still have...

I started this and realized I don't really know what I'm going to write... it's been a long, long time since I last wrote anything on here, so I guess this is just going to be a musing... maybe. It's been a little over three months since I stayed the night at a friend's house and we drove to pick up Andrew at the airport the next day. That day was amazing - like a dream come true. We...

"Come here, 'Lena. Come over to your stepfather." He beckons to me and I walk over, thinking maybe, just maybe, that day at the Zoo was a one-time thing. Maybe... maybe he wouldn't hurt me any more. Maybe he'd be a new Dad- not so much a replacement for Daddy, but a new one. Someone to keep his spot warm. "That's a good little girl. Come on." He removes my pants and holds me...

It began as a trickle, a wee stream, but it's growing now the river looks more like a lake and the lake like an ocean. and you stand on the shore awaiting help that never comes. [drowning in depression] And it began as a word, a wee breath, but they want more now the breath ...

"2am and I'm still awake, writing a song. If I get it all down on paper it's no longer inside of me, threatening the life it belongs to." -Anna Nalick, Just Breathe.

I'm so stuck inside my head, over-thinking and over-anxious and over-exaggerating every emotion until I've over done myself and I fry my emotions and then I'm...

I fall asleep after our Skype session, not even glancing at the clock because I know it's early morning. We say "Goodnight, sleep well and sweet dreams" and our I love yous. It is getting increasingly more difficult to end the call afterwards, because all I want to do all day, every day is Skype with you. All I want to do now, all day, is be with you. I am aching to hold you in May even...
