Hi All!  This weeks teen’s name really is AMBER! Doing my research two teens at at time got me in trouble last post, so I double checked. By the way, this leads to an important “life as a story’ hint… don’t be afraid to make mistakes.  Just own up and move on! If you don’t make mistakes, you can’t write stories. 

Okay, so Amber is a very savvy writer, and I really like her latest post on education (see her blog link below).  For now, I’ll let her “about me” link tell you more…

“Aloha! My name is Amber, I’m 17 years old and I live in Great Britain (it’s all in the name, apparently). I hate writing about myself almost as much as the miners hated Margaret Thatcher in the ’80s, thus here we are…

However, it’s subsequently been decided that I am incapable of such a feat due to my love of popular culture references — you know, Rory from the Gilmore girls style.”
