Belinda (Worderella) created this blog for updates about her website, her writing woes and triumphs, her favorite or most interesting writing tips and techniques, and any sort of industry information she happens to stumble upon. She is, among other things, a writer, a cartoonist, a reader, a researcher, a student engineer, a one-time violinist, a T-shirt surgeon, and a lover of graphic novels, food, and sleep. Order switches depending on school assignments. Worderella's debut novel was vanity published by Aventine Press in December 2003 during her senior year in high school; since then, she has been working on her undergraduate career, writing her second and third novels, and weighing her publishing options.
