"Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring a two-pence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever noticing it." - C. S. Lewis

You were a wise man, Mr. Lewis. This is my standard.

So this is where you get to learn about me. How exciting. Well, you might as well know that I am a seventeen-year-old girl named Anna, and I'm fairly normal aside from the fact that I like Russian literature and have a deep distaste for romance. I'm not tied to any particular genres; I like to experiment and play around with words. Feel free to be as harsh as you like with whatever I've written. The worst that can happen is that you will break my heart and I'll go cry in some corner until I realize you're right. No damage done.
