Who were the Friends of the ABC? The abaissé (the abased) were the people. They wished to raise them up.
-- Victor Hugo; Les Misérables
I, Friend of the ABC, do solemnly swear to review all the fics I read, regardless of the number of reviews, its age, or anything else.
I have joined the review revolution.
(To join, post the above in your browser. And review all the fics you read.)
An Introduction:
I am a girl nearing fifteen. I am a Christian. I was born in Singapore, which is a tiny island at the end of the Malayan Peninsula, but I've lived overseas so long that I count myself as a citizen of the world. I currently live in Shanghai, China, which is one of the coolest places in the world. I am homeschooled and play the guitar, piano and I sing. I am an Anglophile and bibliophile.

Things I Write:
My stories are mostly set in pre-WWI or post-WWI England. I like that time period. A lot of radical change in society. I can't really write modern, except for flashbacks (or flash-forwards). But I'll pretty much do any period that inspires me. Dunno. Depends.
Misc.:
Because I live in China and am homeschooled, I have quite a limited amount of resources. Therefore, my stories might come out slightly historically inaccurate. However, I do try to keep them as accurate as possible, and I pray that you'll let me know if I go wrong.
No one taught me grammar or writing, so some of my grammar might be a little wrong. I apologise.
I'm also at Fanfiction, but a lot less than here.
And that's pretty much it, folks...
