Welcome!

I really needed an outlet for my creative writing (which I really don't do enough of). Ella Jean is my "pen name" for a couple reasons: When I started this I didn't want my name on it and Ella was my great grandmother's name who I was supposed to be named after (Since that didn't happen, that will be my daughter's name). Anyway I have a mix of everything on here so take a look around and enjoy! :) Please, feel free to leave a comment or click in a check box to tell me if you liked the post or not!

Quick Write - Dialogue Without Words

A girl sits alone, reading in her own corner of the school auditorium. Across the room, a door swings open, a boy walks in and the door slams shut, making the girl look up momentarily to investigate. She returns to her novel and he walks towards her. A few seats away, he sits down and takes out a note book and a pen but doesn't write. His tapping the pen on the page rewards him with a glare from the girl. He takes out a text book and flips to a random page. She notices and rolls her eyes. After standing up and making a point of stretching, he sits a seat closer and continues to pretend he is doing work. Finally, she stands up. He does too.
