Profiles are always fun to write. Hooray! Let's see, let's see, where to begin. Hi! I'm WaterhouseMermaid (named after JW Waterhouse's painting called "The Mermaid", it's absolutely gorgerous, I advise looking at it if you haven't already). I'm 20 and I'm a junior in college majoring in Economics (fun... not really). I'm rather silly and whimiscal, but then again who isn't? I mean, I think you have to be a little silly to be a slasher in the first place. I work at a cafe, which is where I do most of my writing. I live in Atlanta, so hit me up if you ever get bored and you live down here.
I'm a strong believer in writing reviews. If I read a story, I'm going to leave a review, even if its only a few words. Writers depend on constructive critisism to help them improve. So please, if you're going to read anything I write (and especially if you're going to put me on alerts or on favorites) please leave a review knowing that if I read anything of yours, I will be polite enough to do the same.
Anywho...
Where the Water Roars is the name of the story that I am currently working on. I have most of it written by hand and I'm making major edits as I type it up. Likewise, updates should happen on a fairly regular basis. It follows the story of Kyle, a 22 year old bartender who follows his family tradition of making a living by fishing in Alaska. He receives a job as a Greenhorn on the FV Tigerlily where he begins to develop feelings for his deckboss Jack. But of course, there's drama, angst, violence, and the thrills that are associated with fishing on the Bering Sea. So likewise, homosexuality is a major theme in it and if you don't like that, then don't read it.
It was pointed out to me that I haven't concretely stated ages of characters and their relations to each other. So this is what we know so far:
Andersons: Jeremy (35), Alex (28), Kyle (22)
Connells: Matt (36), Stephen (33), Kat (32), Jack (29)
Kat is related to Matt, Stephen, and Jack by her father Bull Connell, who is their uncle on their father's side.
Aaron is 31 and Cowboy is 29.
That's the only story I'm posting right now, but other's will follow.
