Author has written 35 stories for General, Love, Life, War, Friendship, Essay, School, Religion, Young Adult, and General. Yay! Someone cares enough to read about me! :hugs: Ahem. I'm a bookworm, physics geek, linguistics nerd (Classics rock), band geek, feminist, atheist, and all-around strange girl. The people in my humanities class third form (that's ninth grade) would say feminazi, but they're wrong. I play flute; I love arguing politics, religion, philosophy and lots of other controversial things with anyone who can construct a semi-logical argument; and I miss boarding school when I'm not there. Other than that, I'm just your average bisexual loquacious bitch. Please -- read and review. Critism is always welcome. Flames are too, because it's cold. My thanks to all my CTY friends who convinced me to get an account and to my beta-readers: VercisIsolde, Hawk Martin (they have accounts; check them out), Fei (she doesn't); thanks also to my epsilon-reader Anna, who really wanted to show off her knowledge of the Greek alphabet and use an "interesting" letter, but who offers good advice anyway. Any mistakes are of course mine and not theirs. 5/8/06: It's been at least two years, or something like it, since I last posted, and I've got to admit that I probably won't be posting here anymore. I haven't been writing much poetry, just prose; for some reason, I'm not quite as willing to post that. Although I read every review (and reply, if there's an email attached), I won't be posting in the future. Fictionpress was awesome for me for a while; but it seems like this chapter of my life has been closed... | |||||
