Basic Author Info: Let's see...what to say? I am an African-American girl and I'm slowly trying to get a lot of stories about African-American girls out in the world (well, if you look at all the races of my characters in Quandaries of a Quirky Romantic and Nobody Said It Was Easy, you'll see a little UN of ethnicities). Writing is what I want to do with my life; hell, it kind of is my life. I have an annoying giggle and a tendency to cackle (cackle). I love sock. I'm a quirk, a random quirk, I'm probably most like Nadine or Jane. (Though I share a lot in common with the guys in my stories). I love nerds, I just do. And freckles on men. And lefties (I just think they're cooler than right handed people, I'm not really all that sure why). I'm sarcastic. I'm a little obsessed with Ireland and I LOVE sea turtles (Javier gets that from me). And...uh...I listen to a LOT of music (since I'm a musician's daughter and everything). I am a dork and I'm willing to admit it. I find my little brother pretty funny - don't tell him, it'll go to his head. I am an amazingly jumpy person. I'm really bad at grammar. I do a lot of weird things. I'm prone to rambling. And I have a kitten that seems to think that she is constantly at war...and that we (my family and I) are the enemy.
The Two Accounts: I am both Secretive and Analytical Calico on this website. Yeah, I forget which account came first, I think it was this one, but I've had two since the very beginning. Right now I only have one story up under Analytical Calico and it's My Undetected Canoodling. Here's the summary for it: The seemingly unrequited crush on your best friend, the perfect romantic cliche, and you know those always work out. However, when an evil older brother, mind games, and dirty little secrets are thrown into the mix, maybe this cliche isn't that perfect... Yeah, it's been my little secret baby, I suppose. I guess this kind of proves that I am a bit secretive; I wanted to see the kind of reception that Jane and Roth would get without my known persona being attached to it. Interestingly enough, a lot of the people that read me under this name found me under that one as well. It was pretty cool.
Random Stuff: I honestly do love getting messages and getting recommendations for stories and authors (on the site and otherwise) so feel free to PM me about anything. That being said, I also have this tendency to forget to check my email accounts for long periods of time, but I WILL read your messages. I promise. (And I'm getting better at checking my email now that my mom is sharing my account with me.) Um...my LJ account is listed as my homepage and...uh...I kind of think I might be done now...
My Current/Pending Projects: Yeah, I know - I start way too many stories. What you don't know is that half of the stories I write don't even show up on here. I'm in the middle of editing, rewriting fairy tales, writing this assassin story that my brother started me on years ago (it is nothing like I have up on this site, but it is still a romance...yeah, I believe I have found my niche), trying to rewrite this series I wrote when I was fourteen and into FanFiction (dark times, dark times... My chapters were sometimes only a page long - until someone kindly told me to either stop writing or crank out longer chapters), and then starting all of these romantic comedies that then stay sitting around in my head, festering. At some point, I can promise you that Micah and Hailee will reappear (although I might put them under my other name, I don't know. Analytical Calico seems so lonely with only it's one story...) as well as Graham and Maggie. I also really want to work on a few of the SKoW challenges. However, as it is, I've promised myself that I won't start anything new until I have finished "My Undetected Canoodling" and have gotten farther in my current stories. But I have mapped out my stories (although it's kind of a tentative map) and I now know (roughly) how many chapters are left to each story. But I'm not going to actually say, because I might change my mind. Um... Okay, I'm done now.
