My name is Katherine McGinnis. I am a sixteen-year-old writer of the horror genre.

My hobbies are playing the violin and piano, and studying French and Hebrew (sometimes German). Academics, of course, are also a main priority.

My livejournal name is zaichev.

Currently I am re-writing Salian the Vampire, and am re-writing the beginning of the re-write because it is silly. I have finished the final edit of La musique d'Éden.
