Honestly, I'm not sure what to write here that won't make me sound cliche or childish, so I'll just say:
I'm a girl who loves the written word and that delicious escape into fiction where anything is possible.
Yeah, that sounds about right.
Quote of the Moment:
There's a downtown corner, people downtown know
And a back beat rhythm on the radio
And the girl who listens
To a young man's song
On the block I live on
In the place I'm from
Tell me, does it move you
Does it soothe you
Does it fill your heart and soul
With the roots of rock & roll
-"Been There Before" Hanson

Keeping Up Appearances-Indefinitely Hiatused
This was the first original plot that I've had since high school, and I am really enjoying it! From the looks of it, more than a few of you are enjoying it as well, so that makes me super happy. I thought I'd add a couple character pictures here, but, so far, they're only of River and Aubrey, and they're really preliminary.
River Andrews -- It was actually really difficult for me to find an actor that could totally fit River's physique, but Brennan Elliot from The 4400 fits it (but only when his hair looks like this! Otherwise, he's not very River-esque, but that's okay. I can deal lol) The first picture has his smirk down perfectly, and I hope you can see the allure he has for most women...
Aubrey Jennings -- I know I had Rachel McAdams here before, but I've definitely changed my mind. Carly Pope (from the shows "Popular" and "Dirty") has Aubrey down perfectly. This picture gives off a hint of that attitude Aubrey has along with a bit of Aubrey's style, too.
A Queen's Descent-Also Indefinitely Hiatused
I'm not usually one to write stories set in high school, but I thought I'd try my hand at this one. Zoey is an incarnation of every girl who's ever gone through ups and downs and peer pressure and that unrequited crush on that oh-so-perfect guy and everything else that life tosses at you. I'm trying to make her as real as possible, but bear with me please! It's a much more difficult story than I initially thought, so I'm still working out some of the kinks. Anyway, below are some pictures of the characters so far. They're all models from the Getty Images site (except for Zoey's pic), so I have no idea who these people are.
Zoey Henderson --Beautiful, quirky, but with a sensitive other side. I love Sophia Bush, and I think she makes an awesome Zoey.
Eric McAllister -- Such a cutie, isn't he? I was going for the cute, boy-next-door because that's what Eric essentially is, and I think I've found him! If only he'd been in my high school ;)
Liza Reynold -- I haven't quite explained Liza's character yet, but, as the story grows, I think you'll see why this girl fits Liza to a T.
Gwen McCourt -- Gwen is the quintessential redhead, who is adorable and innocent, and I think this girl is perfect. The instant I saw her, I knew I'd found Gwen!
