I'm going to do something productive this summer. I am writing a pokemon contest fanfic! Heres the first two paragraphs:

My name is Selina, and ever since I was twelve years old, I have been what is called a pokemon coordinator. Others like me gather around to take part in pokemon contests held in several different cities over all of the regions on this great planet. Pokemon contests are fierce tournaments in which pokemon coordinators come around from all over to show off our skills. Unlike normal pokemon trainers, we focus on showing off the beauty of our pokemon in battle. I had a rocky start at first, but this is my story.

I was in the brightly colored waiting room of the Jubilife City Contest Hall with twenty-three other contestants. My heart was racing as I sat on one of six orange benches propped against the wall opposite the monitor. I held my only pokeball in my right hand, looking at it. Ethalon, my Buneary lay inside. I leaned back up and put my head against the blue wall. Stomach churning, I stood up. Brushing the dust off of my pink dress and checking the pins in my hair, I approached the large monitor, watching the current coordinator fail. This made me worry even more about my own performance because this was my contest debut.

More soon to come!
