The Biography of Tasha

Biography

I'm Tasha (or Natashaannalibby), and I've been a KidPub member since March 10th, 2007! I've had pretty much had the same biography ever since Perry added the Biography section (yup, I was a KP member before KPers even had bios...), with only some minor tweaking here and there. So I decided it was time to re-do it. Not that I think anyone really cares, but...
 
-- Me... and Stuff --
My hobbies include listening to music (some of my favourite artistes are Hedley and Adam Lambert, but I pretty much enjoy anything), knitting and crochet (it's funner than you'd think!), and READING AND WRITING (duh!). I really don't like sports. My favourite TV shows are "That's So Weird" (YTV), "Phineas and Ferb" (Family Channel), "Avatar: The Last Airbender" (Nickleodeon) and "Danny Phantom" (also Nickleodeon). Four great shows, check 'em out! Hm, what else? Well, I love to talk (mostly about books) even if no one's listening to me. I prefer werewolves to vampires, and I am all for Hufflepuff!!!!! I'm in grade 9 in a french school and I live in B.C, which is in Canada. And I love Kidpub! Oh, and some advice to new Kidpubbers would be: leave lots of comments!!! Everybody on here loves comments, and although we "hate to beg", there's no better way to make a KidPubber smile than to comment on their story. Comments are the best part of KP!
 
-- My Writing --
Thanks to KidPub I am a published author! Here's the link to my book page: http://bookstore.kidpub.com/product_book_info/folk-tales/the-one-he-left.... I'm currently working on two stories: a series called "The 14 Beasts" which I won't be posting on KP, and a fantasy/adventure story called "The Alliance" (http://www.kidpub.com/book-page-or-chapter/alliance-chapter-1-sequel-tea...). The KP story I'm currently most proud of is Team Forever (http://www.kidpub.com/book-page-or-chapter/untitled-will-eventually-have...). To view a list of my many other stories, most of which are unfinished, click here: http://www.kidpub.com/viewTracker/1610?sort=desc&order=Posted+On Oh, and I am a big fan of Maddie's invention, the shorticle.
