So, last night instead of sleeping, I started writing. Now, it's not much but.. Anyway, so the thing is, I want to write about her being some kind of mystical creature, so any ideas would be gladly appreciated.

Any CONSTRUCTIVE criticism is welcomed with open arms. I kind of like the beginning, but I'll google up on some mythical creature and try to continue. (:

As I woke up, I groaned. Another day of having to pretend to be normal again. I couldn't help but wonder how long it's going to take before others finds out. How long before I burst with the truth. So far, I managed to keep quiet about it, not even telling my best friend, Leslie. But every day I wake up dreading the day the truth is revealed, dreading the day people will look at me like I'm some kind of freak. Maybe I am. Not one day goes by without me thinking I am. I'm 16 now, as of a month ago, and that's when everything started to happen.

Thanks for reading and all the criticism. (:

There are a few errors with sentence structure/syntax, but it's not bad. I've fixed a few parts where the syntax or grammar was off. Most of what I changed is personal preference to give it more depth and make it flow better.

As I woke up, I groaned. Another day of having to pretend to be normal still. I couldn't help but wonder how long *it was going to take before other people found out. How long before I burst with the truth? I've managed to keep quiet about it, so far — not even telling my best friend, Leslie. Yet every day I wake up dreading the day that the truth is revealed, the day people will look at me as if I'm some kind of freak. *Who knows? Maybe I am. Not a day goes by where I don't think I am, anyway. I'm 16 now, as of a month ago. That's when everything started to happen.

You might also want to try:
- "how long it will be before other people find out" -- adding a bit more to that part like "that I've been keeping a secret" etcetc, something to give it depth. Though if you do that, you'll need to change the tense of the other words in the sentence
- Splitting the "I've managed to keep quiet about it" sentence into two parts, making the second sentence "I haven't even told Leslie, my best friend. . ." follow it up with a small detail like how long they've been friends or that the narrator tells her everything etc, etc.

'-' That's all I got.

Naw. ALMOST everything. You forgot social dance. Social dance = shit. You cannot enjoy it and it is worse than Twilight.

Just a suggestion but "Another day of having to pretend to be normal still" Doesn't really sound correct. Again sounds a bit better than still. So maybe "Another day of pretending to be normal again," may be better?

Twilight is worse.
I don't care. Social dance sucks. Twilight is worse. Twilight is the most horrid thing ever that should never have been written. Or made a movie of.


My suggestion, once I reread that, is err, "Yet another day of having to pretend to be normal."...
I don't know, all suggestions for the line are valid I suppose.

I heard twilight books were good and the movies really destroyed it. But I don't know.
