Hi everyone ! :)

First of all I'm sorry for my "language mistakes"... My name is Amelie, I'm Belgian and I'm 21. I write stories since I'm 7.

I'm lost in my futur because I tried some studies but without success... Nothing pleases me very well. So I hope that one day I'm gonna publish something.

I'm a fan of Stephen King since 2008 or 2009. I don't know how I could knew his name but he wasn't unkown to me. I like languages and one day I saw a big book in English and it was written "Stephen King" on the cover. I ask to have an English book of thath writer. I was starting to watch horror movies so I wanted to read horror stories ! My first Stephen King was "The body" (in English), I had some vocabulary to help me in my reading at the end of the book. I was disappointed because that story doesn't scared so I wasn't interessed in Stephen King anymore. But then, I saw two movies: "Pet Sematary" and "The mist"... and I fell in love ! So I bought "Salem" and "Charlie". "Salem" froze my blood (French expression, I don't know how you say that in English...) ! And then I read him and it's a beautiful and big love story ! :D

Is the book "Charlie" called "Firestarter" in English perhaps? (because the main character was named Charlie - the little girl who could start fires if she was upset).

I just realised a big mistake in my presentation >< I would never forgive me ! :O

Don't be so hard on yourself, Amélie. I make mistakes all the time and I can't for the life of me find what mistake you made in your presentation. If you hadn't written that I'd never have known. Welcome aboard. I've a friend from Belgian...Mike is his name. He's in Alaska now, but he came here to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan...ten years or more. We always called him Mike the Belgium. Small world, hey? I wonder if you know him? He's about 5'8" and has a pony-tail...married now to an American girl, living up there in Alaska like I said. He didn't like to make mistakes, either. If you're ever in the neighborhood I could bring you by some of the mistakes I've made...see if you notice them or not.

Haha sorry I don't know anyone who moved to Canada or somewhere else. That's a nice name "Mike the Belgium" :). I don't know if I'll come one day to the USA... I dream to go to Canada but I don't know... One day, maybe :)
