New Beginning to a Book!

Is anyone else too absorbed in writing a book? Right now, I've done almost nothing but read and write. Here's another beginning to one of my stories:

I'd never seriously looked at my best friend Veronica Abrams for her appearance before that day in the middle of November. She was beautiful with long dark brown or even black hair going halfway down her back and dark brown eyes. With such pale skin, you could almost see her veins, and her eyes were a very dark brown that matched her eyes. She was skinny, but not eating disorder thin. In comparison, I looked plain with only shoulder length light brown hair and bangs so long they'd be considered side bangs. My dark blue eyes were neither as expressive or enchanting as hers were. She was almost like a mythical creature; she just had a glow about her.

If anyone else has a story they'd like me to post, email me at ilovekona968@gmail.com.
