Hello ,

a bit about me:

Welcome traveler! Whether you have somehow happened upon this website or searched for it I’m glad you’ve stumbled your way here! Before I get into what this portfolio is about, I think I should probably tell you a little bit about me first. My name is Violet L. Smith and I am a writer from Oklahoma who loves giraffes.

    I know, what an odd thing to mention- but it’s true. To this day, I own 31 giraffes and I’m only 16! Another odd thing about me is that I have a slight obsession with dying my hair odd colors, currently, I’m focusing on blue. Anyways, as I’ve mentioned I am 16 a sophomore in high school and I spend most of my time practicing my Show Choir moves and writing. I have been writing since the fifth grade, although I call that time the ‘dark ages’ where we don’t speak about my writing.

    I’ve always been in love with writing and books, and you can usually find me with either a notebook or an actual book in hand. I also spend a fair amount of time singing and dancing with my choir or just having general fun with them. I have a few goals in life, and nearly all of them involve writing- which is exactly what this portfolio is about!

    My dream is to become a world-renowned author, I want to be able to slap ‘New York Times Best Seller’ on the cover of my book. And while this goal is a little unlikely, my motto has been to always reach for the stars. On this website, you can find my various ongoing projects, as well as my pride and joy- the book that will be published and available for purchase in February. Each book will have a little timeline image attached to it so that you can see where I am in my writing process. 

    Now, I know what you’re asking yourself. What is the ‘clickingthepen’ page also linked to this website? Well, my beautiful traveler, this little button will take you to the ‘blog’ portion of this site, which is where I post tips for writing, quotes, and updates from my very own life. 

This is the part of the bio where I implore you to look around a little, find something that tickles your fancy and possibly support me on my social media. Now, I won’t boot you out of my humble abode if you don’t, but any kudos are welcome. Now, be careful kind wanderer- for you may get sucked into the black hole that is this magically alluring site. 

    Psh- Whatever. Who even heeds warnings like that?
