Meet Anny

I'm writing a story.  I've been working on it for a few months and it is coming along very nicely. The story is a fictional story about fairies.  The main character is a girl named Anny, who as it turns out, is based on me.  Yes, I'm pretty much writing a story about myself, except is completely made up.  I wrote a few paragraphs about my character to make her seem more real.

Anny Farrow is 15 years old.  She is small and pretty, with long wavy brown hair and hazel eyes.  Her interests include music, books, food, and writing stories. Her favorite bands are Imagine Dragons, One Republic, and Maroon 5.  She also likes music by Phillip Phillips, Owl City, and Lindsey Stirling.  She listens to their music on Pandora Radio.  She doesn’t have a favorite movie, as she thinks there are too many good ones to choose, but her favorite books are Fablehaven, Warriors, and Bloodlines.  In her free time, she can be found watching Doctor Who, reading in her bedroom, or listening to loud music and writing stories on her computer.  She is in love with food, but she is a very picky eater, except when it comes to dessert.  Her all-time favorite dessert is any kind of pie.  Anny does karate, and she has since she was six years old.  Before that, she did gymnastics.  She also likes playing soccer, and wishes she had time to be on a team.  Her pet peeve is when there are typo’s in published documents like books.  They annoy the hell out of her.

Anny lives in Park City, Utah, which she thinks is the best place in the world to live, with her mother, Maggie, her father, Peter, her older brother, Kyle, and their two crazy Golden Retrievers.  There house is biggish.  It has three stories and a loft.  The ground floor is the basement, where the TV is.  The kitchen and living room are on the middle floor, along with a bathroom and dining room.  The bedrooms are on the top floor.  Anny’s room is the smallest.  It is always a mess.  There is stuff all over the floor.  There is a bed, dresser, bookshelf, and closet.  She hates cleaning it, and never wants to spend time cleaning it.  

On a normal day, Anny can be seen wearing jeans, a tee-shirt, and an oversized hoodie.   She has a habit of fidgeting with anything she can get her hands on, usually paper or the strings of her hoodie.  Anny doesn’t talk very much, and when she does, she is very quiet.  Even though she is quiet and shy, she makes friends really easily.  She has a very fiery temper and gets mad really easily, but she also calms down pretty easily.  Her ways of calming her temper are reading, listening to loud music, and solving puzzles.  Other things that make her happy are her friends and food.  Anny’s worst fear is being completely alone in the world and not having anyone who cares about her.  She is also scared of growing up, spiders, and cliffs.
