| Introduction | I am a person of many facets, an enigma even to myself. Ok, fine - I'm an eighteen-year-old college student who loves writing and reading fantasy, and pondering those strange and profound mysteries of life. I've been writing since I was eight, I finished my first novel when I was twelve (not published - I set it aside for some years and am now in the process of revising it), and I've been developing other stories ever since. I tend to write in spurts; as with the rest of my hobbies, I often go for days or weeks without indulging, only to suddenly receive a powerful burst of inspiration at the most inconvenient moment, causing me to drop everything and write. This blog is not only an attempt to reinforce some structure in my personal writing schedule (read: responsibility xP), but also in providing such a regimen will require me to focus my thoughts and convey them in a written form regularly. My alter ego is a winged, six-foot-tall squirrel warrior from a far-off land - she'll occasionally give some of her own input about random topics. |
| Interests | Reading, writing, drawing/sketching, knitting, crocheting, listening to music, spending time with any wonderful person that I have had the honor of meeting, formulating my survival plan in the event of a zombie apocalypse |
| Favorite movies | The Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Dark Knight, Juno, Moon, Fantastic Mr. Fox, Atonement, The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, Harry Potter, Minority Report, Casablanca, The Darjeeling Limited, The Sixth Sense, Iron Man, The Avengers. Bear in mind that altogether, the number of movies I have seen are considerably few; however, since we tend to share the same taste in films, this list more-or-less corresponds to both our favorites. |
| Favorite music | Green Day, Imagine Dragons, Lindsey Stirling, The Piano Guys, Ed Sheeran, The All-American Rejects, One Republic. We also have a very high appreciation for any form of classical/baroque, and well-done movie soundtracks. |
