Hi there, Stranger, At the moment, I'm working on a play, that I plan finish somewhere before 2035. In the meantime, I'll probably just be posting the regular random poems that come up while I desperately hope for inspiration. Most of the stuff I have on here at the moment is absolutely horrible, and a part of me wants to delete all but a few of my creations, but the other part of me doesn't, and I as a whole am just too lazy to do it, so yeah... Freaky fact: when I Googled my pen name, it turned out someone in my hometown (population of 17.000) is actually called Katja de Wit. I swear I never heard of this person before I chose this pen name, and, quite frankly, I was a little weirded out by my discovery. Hmm, maybe I should change my name back to Pandora? I've gotten really attached to this name, though. Some quotes that keep me inspired: just loose snippets of narrative, lyrics and strange things my teachers and friends say. "Death walks like Mr Vandemar." Neil Gaiman 'Neverwhere' "Right in the middle of here." One of my teachers "I scare birds for a hobby." Another one of my teachers "I hate turtles, yes I do, for the bible tells me to." My very interesting friend Cherry "Suffer smartingly in the fires of abstinence." Robert Louis Stevenson 'The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde' "The world is changed because you are made of ivory and gold. The curves of your lips re-write history." Oscar Wilde 'The Picture of Dorian Gray', obviously. I have my reasons. "I'm more of a man than you'll ever be, and more of a woman than you'll ever have." The unmistakable Mr Brian Molko "We dance round in a ring and suppose, but the Secret sits in the middle and knows." Robert Frost 'The Secret Sits' One more thing you need to know before continuing: Almost none of my work is autobiographical unless explicitly stated, so please don't ask me if I'm OK. Kthnx. Eagerly awaiting your con-crit, | |||||||
