"Writing stories is like doing drugs; it's all good shit."

Heya! I'm Nausikaa, and I shall be your authoress for this morning/afternoon/evening/middle of the night! My penname was previously Nina, taken from the video game Breath of Fire- but I feel like I no longer identify with her as much as I used to. Nausikaa is a variation of Nausicaa, the Phoecian princess from the Odyssey. She's also from from the comics Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, which I adore. If anyone's interested though, my real name's Christina.

The things I enjoy are reading, WRITING -- Pssst, extra important this one... Doodling in margins and reading. In real life I'm kind of shy person, though I like to hope I'm a little bit interesting.

I read widely, but I'm also rather picky with what I read. I dislike chick lit and similar genres. Romance tends to get on my nerves. I used to only read fantasy; Garth Nix, William Nicholson, J.K Rowling, C.S Lewis ect. I've now realised that fantasy often only plays with sterotypes and set concepts, so I've been branching out, tentatively, into realism. My favourite books are Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugienes, Ghost Boy by Ian Lawrence and Garth Nix's Shade's Children.

Any of my stories under 'Dinner Date with a Vampire' I would be wary of reading. They're old rather old pieces; but I'm a sentimentalist, and can't bear to delete them!

Upcoming Projects for fictionpress.com:

To the Sky - Fantasy. Carrie has always known there is something missing in her life. A hole in her chest, memories wrenched from their proper place. She has always known of a twin brother named Julian, but she, on her own life, cannot honestly recall who he is. But there are years missing too, and a family move from the heart of urban Londinium to the deserted moors of Yorkshire. Silence. Heliographs removed from childhood albums, and a definite knowledge that she is not like other thirteen year old girls, that there is a reason why she must not speak to policemen about her unspoken abilities, that she can hear their suspicious thoughts as they think them. But memories do not like to be withheld. My nanowrimo story- I'm now editing it.
