About me

Gender Female
Introduction has been writing stories since the first grade, though if you ask her parents, they'll tell you she's been making them up since way before that. She has eclectic taste in both friends and music, and an unreasonable affection for the semi-colon. She is a competent cook, but sadly cannot spell. She periodically vows not to buy anymore books until she has a) more money and b) more space, but has not, as of yet, actually kept such a vow. She reads more than most people she knows (though not as much as some) and intends to use this site to record all the books she reads this year--even the ones she's ashamed to admit she's read.
