Hello. My name is Valerie. I'm eighteen years old and I enjoy writing a lot. Why wouldn't I, though, because if I hated writing, why would I post anything? Anyway, I intend to be an editor and go into publishing. I sell concessions at a nice theater at my college, and enjoy it very much because I get free tickets to shows.
The picture is from No Rest For The Wicked.
I have an account at Fanfiction.net. My name there is Sherlock Holmes Skittle.
Some stuff about me: I get sidetracked real easily, but I try my best to update. I am LDS, or Mormon, so you won't find any coarse language in my stories. Also
