A-Z Challenge Letters A-D Catch-up

I’m a little late jumping on the A-Z blogging challenge, but here I am.
My theme for this challenge is introducing myself, so hold on to your hats kids—you’re about to learn some random stuff. I hope to get to know my followers better as well.
Since I missed A-D this is going to be my massive catch up post. :D
A is for Author. I write books. I’ve been creating stories for as long as I can remember (Free time in first grade? Yup, I was writing). I haven’t published anything yet, but I have some big plans in the works.
B is for Biology. Here’s where it gets all random. I have a degree in biology. Science plus fantasy novels? Yes, yes it is a strange mix.
C is for Cat. I’m a little obsessed with cats. Not like in a crazy cat lady way, but you can guarantee if I visit someone and they have a cat, that cat is getting like 98% of my attention. I have two gorgeous cats (Stop by my blog long enough and you’re sure to hear stories of their antics).





D is for Dog. Okay, so as much as I love cats, I really love all animals. There is nothing better than being welcomed home by two excited dogs. I have two adorable puppies.






Well, now here is your part of the challenge! Do you write? What is your big dream? Do you have any quirky traits like a biologist/fantasy author mash-up? What is the one thing that can attract 98% of your attention?

Hello and Welcome

My name is Jessica Celaya. That’s pronounced See-lie-uh. I’m a reader. I’m a writer. I’m a happily ever after liver.
The funny thing about happily ever afters is that they are never like you expect. But the good parts are even better than you could imagine.
Writing can be the same. Sending books to agents, writing a synopsis, and creating characters are sometimes nothing like you imagined when the dream to become a writer seized your heart.
This blog is about all the ups and downs of writing, of books, and of life. It’s about the heartache of rejection to the joy of getting the perfect scene right. I’ll share the tidbits I learn along the way. I hope I can learn from you all as well.
If you want to learn more about my pre-happily ever after writing adventures, my old blog under my maiden name is http://jessicalfoster.blogspot.com/
Happy Writing!
