Stories and Thoughts

On this site, you will (eventually) find stuff about

My name is Vickie Boutwell. I am a teenager in West Virginia and will begin school at Marshall University in August 1999. My major is Zoology, and I want to be an animal behavioralist.

I have written stories since sixth grade. Most are 20 to 40 pages long, and my longest is around 500 pages and growing. I had two short stories go to state level competition for Young Writers' Day, and one won second place at state level my 10th grade year. I love to write. I write science fiction, comedy, satire, murder mysteries--anything I'm in the mood for. (My favorite writer is Agatha Christie.) I've always wanted to be published, but never could.

Then, I discovered the internet. I made my first web page in 1998. I made it with a publisher that came with my game Catz 3. Then I made another site, Tori's Site (using another nickname), and taught myself HTML. I remade my Catz site. Finally, I became daring and--hoping no one will steal my work--decided to put an essay or two up for the world. Everyone needs a voice. You don't have to agree with me, just be open-minded. I'll pay you the same courtesy. Oh, and be sure to leave your comments in my guestbook .

PLEASE don't take my words or pictures. They are copyrighted, but more importantly, they are my feelings and my voice.

Now for the essay(s)!
