I've been writing since I was thirteen years old, but dreaming about it since I could hold up a pencil and locate the nearest blank wall. I remember I used to scribble on napkins at parties, on menus in restaurants, and in every notebook I carried with me to school. An avid reader as well, my mom signed me up for the Reader's Weekly Book Club when I was just five. I would devour the books the same day they arrived, and spent the rest of the week analyzing them. Throughout my schooling years, I was nicknamed by my friends, "book girl".
In my teens, I discovered the music in words and threw myself into poetry--something I also became known for throughout my time in school. I've written personalized poems for just about everyone I know, and in most cases, being a computer fanatic, framed the poems with a photo background related to the people I wrote the poems for.
In my later teens, I began writing scenes--a venture that carried me into adulthood until I finally fed my desire to finally try my hand at writing a novel. My first attempt didn't exactly go off without a hitch, but I learned from that experience. Four and a half years ago, I began working on her current project, "Hornsby"; a tween fantasy series about David and his search for someone very important, his unmasking of a dangerous man bent of destruction, and the birth of one of Elder City's greatest heroes.
My blog over at myspace.com/clfreire has become quite the thing to read, as my subscribers include even some who aren't on my friends space.
I currently reside with my husband of almost 17 years, and our little girls (our kitty and our pooch). My greatest hope in life is to touch people with my writing, to inspire, and evoke thought and creativity in others...oh, and to be a best selling author who lives in NYC...that's a BIG one.
Writing is my greatest passion, next to my husband and two little girls. I love laughing, talking to people with varied interests, traveling, reading, gaming, movies, cooking, and TV. The list can go on forever really. I don't like creepers, which includes anything non-mammalian or birds. I can't tolerate phony people, or those with "agendas". I am vehemently against hunting in any form, as I don't see "killing a defenseless animal" a sport or even remotely "manly". I don't associate myself with anyone who tries to make others believe as they do under the notion that any one person's views are the only right ones. I don't judge people, as I am no one to judge. I love cities, dark stormy nights, and gritty movies, preferably with a noirish atmosphere. Atmosphere is a big thing for me. I love music that drips with it, and movies that exude atmosphere with every word spoken, and every scene shot. I've got a really cool myspace page over at: myspace.com/clfreire. And then there's my other blog, reserved for everything revolving around my tween fantasy series. For that you can check out clfreire.blogspot.com. I look forward to meeting tons of writers here. I love talking to writers. They're all so passionate about their art that one would be mad not to be taken aback in the presence of such dedication and creativity.
