Hello, there! I am Emma.Q.Wilkinson, your completely atypical 16-year-old American girl. I'm a coloratura soprano in training, as much at home on the stage as in my bedroom, who would find life a whole lot easier if she could sing or write everything instead of actually talking...
Things I love: Broadway musicals, violins, flutes, pennywhistles, really good tenors, hummable music, red roses, play practice, ranting, quoting musicals, quoting Shakespeare, freaking people out because of aforementioned quoting, big words, cats, tea, chocolate, trivia, European history, dessert, substitute teachers, lyrical music, lyrical dance, reviews, compliments, constructive criticism on writing/voice, British/Scottish/Irish/French accents, playing around with languages.
Favorite musicals: The Phantom of the Opera (my favorite), Les Miserables, The Scarlet Pimpernel, Jekyll & Hyde, The Pirate Queen, Wicked, Chess, et al.
Favorite books: Phantom (Susan Kay - the best book EVER), The Silmarillion (J. R. R. Tolkien), The Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Douglas Adams)anything by Tamora Pierce, the Shakespeare I have read so far (Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar, Othello, Macbeth), A Great and Terrible Beauty, Rebel Angels (Libba Bray), Inkheart, The Thief Lord (Cornelia Funke), The Bartimaeus Trilogy (Johnathan Stroud)
Favorite passtimes: singing, writing, reading, dancing, acting, hanging out with my friends, curling up in bed with a cat, a book, and a cup of tea, watching musicals
Things I detest: 2004 Phantom movie, Gerard Butler's singing, homework, midterms/finals, math, grammar (who cares whether it's a gerund or not if it sounds right?), cooked vegetables, angst, writing romance (quite contradictory, I know), damsels in distress, writer's block, dissonance, flat characterization, cliches, saying my solo song as a monologue.
You can also find me as KyrieofAccender on FF.net and coloratura42 on YouTube.

I apologize to anyone who was reading my werewolf story, but I've realized that I simply don't have the time to really do that story justice at the moment. I've decided to take it down, because of my lack of time and because I don't want anyone to steal my characters. I really do apologize for disappointing my readers. I will, however, be posting any short stories I've written here.
