: About Me

Hi, everyone. Amber Gill is my name and writing's my game. It's true that writing has been one of my favorite things to do since I was nine, which was when I began to make up my own plots for new stories. Unfortunately, I got a little carried away and I have a line of over 30 books to be finished. I'm a big fan of Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and Treasure Island, though I've only attempted to write about one of these three. I'm eighteen years old and live with my parents, older brother, and two sisters (one older and one younger) in Indiana. Thanks to Helium, I've been able to publish some of my writings (mostly novel excerpts and poetry) and I have become more confident with allowing others to read my work. So thank you to all who made helium possible. :)!
