Hi. My name is Kristaleen. You can call me Kristal, Kris, or any non-offensive nicknames you can think of. I am a creative writer, who has found inspiration in my life and the lives of those around me. I write little anecdote type stories based around a character I call “Kristal”. I gave her my name because I can seriously empathize with the experiances I put her through, even if they are not inspired by my own. She is the reason I call this blog “Kristal’s Gem”. I think of life as a precious stone. Dirty and unpleasent to start, but every choice cleans and forms the life we live, until we have a beautiful gem to share with the world.
Creative writing may be a wonderful hobby for me, but it is not the only one, and it is not my only passion. I also sketch (badly) and sing (poorly). I have terrible stage fright issues, so my singing audiance includes my showerhead, my pillow, my mirror, a teddy bear, and my hairbrush. 
If you feel the desire to see my art, you can go to: http://lunergurl.deviantart.com/
I have no samples of my singing (thank god) online. I am not intending to put any vocal samples online. Please, please, don’t ask me to put any up. I am terribly shy, and am not very good.
Enjoy reading my short stories, and please come again!
~Kristaleen
