Author has written 18 stories for Romance, Horror, Supernatural, Fantasy, Action, General, General, Humor, Life, and Sci-Fi.

Name: Grace Shisler

Age: 16 (DOB is 12/10/1992)

Height: around 5'3" ish

Hair: blonde

Eyes: blue, contacts

Personality: kind of quiet for the most part, shy, extremely close to friends, hyper when on sugar/caffeine/air

Theme song: If Today Was Your Last Day by Nickelback

Goals: Maybe actually finishing one of my stories? Yes please? And getting a job this summer.

Life progress at present: have a free day today and maybe tomorrow, so will try to get something written. Am currently putting history on trial in (duh) my history class; I'm a jury member which means I need to be an alien. My best friend is a prosecuting attorney, my other best friend is a "surprise witness" for the prosecution, my OTHER best friend is also a juror . . . it's gonna be fun. . I'll write a story about it and post it! Yay

Little-known fact: reads romance novels, manga, fanfics, and random stuff. Okay, so maybe that's not so little-known . . .

Favorite color: black

Favorite animal: housecats

Favorite food: steak and mashed potatoes; apple pie with loads of sugary-cinnamony goo and vanilla ice cream!

Shortcomings: refuse to do stuff I think is stupid (as such most of my schoolwork does not get done); maintains FP site instead of said schoolwork; listens to songs on repeat incessantly; has decidedly emo tendencies; reads books instead of doing schoolwork; reads same books over and over again; would rather sleep than go to school (haven't skipped a day ever though. I don't skip classes either); keeping up on schoolwork still . . . whoops . . .

Strong suits: good with words; hygenic; bright; easily amused

PIRATES OR NINJAS: both! Hard question

Apples or oranges: apples, orange flavored stuff

Sweet or salty: both, not at the same time

Language of choice: English, but wants to earn Japanese and Latin

Favorite class: German and History, a little Chemistry since we made ice cream today . . .

Grade: presently 10th

Influences: Hikawa Kyoko-sensei, the authors Robin McKinley, Terry Pratchett, Janice Wing (also my aunt!), Margaret Weis, Tracy Hickman, Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, Robert Heinlein, Ray Bradbury, Amanda Ashley, Stephenie Meyer, Jean Rabe, Takaya Natsuki-sensei, Watase Yuu-sensei, CLAMP-senseis, and all the other fabulous authors I read.

Musical influences: Kawabe Chieko-san, Hirano Aya-san, Nightwish, the Killers, the Fray, the Cars, Van Halen, Katrina and the Waves, Jimmy Buffett, Disney songs (erm . . .)

Sport: fencing, swimming, rugby (spectator! OMGz not player)

Favorite subject in school: snow day! Except that means my road sucks. German, Culinary Arts, History . . .

Favorite song in general: "Can't Stop Lovin' You" by Van Halen

Playlist (what I'm currently listening to): "If Today Was Your Last Day" by Nickelback, "Prelude 12/21" by AFI, "My Immortal" by Evanescence

Favorite band: ummmm . . .

Favorite song by them: ummmmm . . .

Favorite book: Yes. All of the above. Almost everything I've chosen to read. (Forced reads don't count, i.e. Cry The Beloved Country and Ethan Frome.)

Favorite quote: "Each day's a gift and not a given right . . . that first step you take is the longest stride . . ."

Most memorable thing written: " ' . . . I knew your mother very well.' He turned to look out the window. 'I was very close to her. When she discovered she was pregnant, she came to me.' 'Before she told my father?' Astriella interrupted skeptically. He glanced at her. 'No. Your father was the first to know.' "

Favorite movie: V For Vendetta

Favorite celebrity: Jeremy Irons. Since I saw him in the old TV series of Brideshead Revisited, I've really admired him. He's a phenomenal actor . . . .

Favorite manga: TSUBASA RESERVOIR CHRONICLES

Random quote: Live it like you'll never live it twice . . .

General about me-ness: I make friends fairly easy, but they're more casual acquaintance types unless I talk to them a lot and they stalk me. (Kidding! I don't have any stalkers. Just one golden retriever puppy.) I really love cats! I hate scooping my cat's litter box (probably TMI, but who really reads these things). I'm usually a good listener, but get me talking and I'll go on for a while or at least until I start to feel awkward and shut up from sheer OMG-ness. I'm fairly introspective, and I find a lot of flaws in myself. As a result (regrettably) I have fairly low self-esteem. I also tend to talk using long words and a lot of pauses. That only happens when I have to think about what I'm saying, though, and therefore needs to happen more often. ; ) When I'm not paying attention to what I'm saying, I say "like" a lot and "and," "um," and all other pausewords you can think of. I'm slightly more coherent when I think it through. But then I have to explain vocabulary, and it takes longer. I really hate puns being made on my name! I dress like I'm kind of emo, but I'm not. I have really eclectic taste in music. I write about some of my characters obsessively (OMG cast of Starlight and Birthright much?). I love history, I love my history CLASS . . . . it's full of psycho nerds like me . . . I firmly believe in the inherent goodness of people, perhaps because I haven't quite gotten it through my head that not everyone thinks like I do. It just baffles me that people can willingly do things to hurt others. I dunno.

and that's all I can think of at the moment! I'll come up with more later.

PS: swiped this from a FanFiction page (I reviewed a story by the person, so it's all cool). It's so true, and we need to focus on eradicating homophobia! Come on, people, free will?

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.
We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.
I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.
I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.
I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.
I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.
I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.
I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I did not have to always deal with society hating me.
I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.
I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.
I am the person who is afraid of telling his loving Christian parents he loves another male.

Re-post this if you believe homophobia is wrong. Please do your part to end it.

Thanks for reading bye everyone!
