About the Buneater
I'm not always known as the Buneater. Mostly I'm Katie with an optional
'foolery' on the end.
I'm
not a born procrastinator. No indeed; I put a lot of hard work into
procrastinating and I'm damn good at it. When I'm not procrastinating,
I work in a secondary school library and try not to spend all of my
working hours reading. It's not easy, but at least I can claim I'm
doing research. Seriously, how can I recommend books if I haven't read
them all?
I recently completed a Bachelor of Arts with a major in
professional writing... ten years after I started it. You have to
admit, that's pretty impressive procrastinating.
I love grammar,
I firmly believe in spelling and I'm developing a healthy relationship
with the semi-colon after ignoring it for so long (mostly out of
misplaced fear).
The stories I have here are... quite varied. The poemish thing called "Cianan" was a result of one of
the characters from my WIP, The Black Fiddle of Barnet,
coming into my head one day and telling me he wanted to write a poem. He
can be very arty that way, some times.
My other story is a very short little thing but I had a lot of fun writing
it. You're welcome to have just as much fun reading it, if you feel so
inclined.
Holly Hughes was begun recently and I anticipate that it will continue for a while.

NEWS!
26/12/2007 - Am still alive. I've recently been inspired to continue with Holly Hughes, despite having forgotten a good deal of my planned plot, since a great deal of it was always in my head and I neglected to take the chance to write it all down before it could vanish from my head. The bits that I did write down are very helpfully cryptic to the point of being surreal... but I'm sure I'll work it out eventually.
Also: MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL! And here's to a fantastic 2008. :D
Reviewing
If you leave a review for me, then it will be returned. I enjoy reading
new stories, so I'm always keen to meet new friends on FictionPress.
Please
note that I'm an Australian and as a result of this, I use the British
spelling in my writing. This means I tend to put ‘u’s in words such as
"colour" and capitalise seasons, months and days of the week.
