| Introduction | I talk too much, eat too much and dislike social situations. I love my family and my pugs and despite utter cynicism about most things, I know that I am lucky. I read and write to escape reality, but in a good way. And I am an only child - which should explain a lot. |
| Interests | Literature, Philosophy, Fashion, Photography, Food, Classical Art, Human Behaviour, Music in all its forms, Travel and new places, the Past. |
| Favorite Movies | Baz Luhrmann's Romeo and Juliet, The Godfather Parts 1 and 2, Taxi Driver, any Pixar stuff, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Life of Brian, The Shining, Excalibur, Ben Hur, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Clueless, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Mallrats, Dirty Harry, The Big Sleep, The Maltese Falcon, Snatch, Moulin Rouge, To Kill a Mockingbird. |
