C.L. Freire is a Tween Fantasy Author who lives in Miami with her husband and children. C.L. is the master-mind behind the popular MySpace Group http://www.myspace.com/writerstogether. Check out her other spaces and enjoy her work. http://www.clfreire.blogspot.com/ http://www.myspace.com/clfreire
Author C. L. Freire is a passionate author with the first two novels in her Tween fantasy series complete. She has been writing since she was thirteen years old, but dreaming about it since she could hold up a pencil and locate the nearest blank wall. Thinking back, she vividly recalls scribbling on napkins at parties, on menus in restaurants and in every notebook she ever carried with her to school. An avid reader as well, her mother signed her up for the Reader's Weekly Book Club when C. L. was seven. She would devour the books the same day they arrived, and she would spend the rest of the week analyzing them. Throughout her school years, she was nicknamed "Book Girl" by her friends.
In her teens, C. L. discovered the music in words and threw herself into poetry; something she also became known for throughout her time in school. In her later teens, she began writing scenes--a venture that carried her into adulthood, until she finally fed her desire to finally try her hand at writing a novel. Admitting that her first attempt didn't exactly go off without a hitch, she learned a lot from that experience. Nearly five years ago, she began working on her current project, a Tween fantasy series about a boy and his search for someone very important, his unmasking of a dangerous man bent on destruction, and the birth of one of Elder City's greatest heroes. She has always loved YA books as well, so her goal is to one day leap into that market full throttle.
C. L. holds a deep passion, not only for the craft itself, but for helping other authors achieve their dreams—a passion that led her to start a Myspace page called Writers Together, which is solely dedicated to offering exposure and a sense of community to authors everywhere.
"Writing, for me, is a mind-bending obsession that drives anyone who will listen, crazy." –C. L. Freire
She looks forward to the day when an aspiring author can look to her and say, "Thank you for inspiring me to reach for my dreams no matter the obstacles that stood in my way."
