| Kitty Taylor |
Author has written 24 stories for Fantasy, Historical, Young Adult, Romance, General, Life, Mystery, and General. Introduction Hey! As you may have guessed, my name is Kitty Taylor. Or at least, that's my pen name. I'm 18 years old, from Derby, England. Urm, I've been writing for a number of years, but recently I've realised it's probably the only thing that I'm good at, so I've been devoting more time to it as a hobby. I currently am living (mostly) in Norwich, studying American Literature with Creative Writing at the University of East Anglia (UEA). Best in the country for creative writing, or so I'm told! So, expect a little more activity out of me while I'm here - and hopefully some improvements too. Most of the work I post will probably be prose, because the novels I write I don't like to show around. Come on, give me some regular rough-and-tumble R&R. Throw it at me! I need all the help I can get, so be as harsh as you want (although no unnecessary flaming please, because that's just pointless). Story inspiration A few of my pieces will probably have been inspired either by music, people or www.gaiaonline.com. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me. I need to know if what I'm writing actually makes sense, heh. My user name on Gaia Online is Psychotic Maniacal Sanity, so feel free to look me up. Some of my favourites bands/artists are Kerry Ellis, Kristin Chenoweth, Idina Menzel, Vienna Teng, and there are more. So if you'd like to listen to the songs that go with each story, then you should be able to find them on Youtube.com somewhere. Maybe not with Dragonforce, but the others should be all right. Also, I get a lot of my inspiration for Musical scores, such as the music from Wicked, Chicago, The Phantom of the Opera, Moulin Rouge, and a lot of Disney music (I'm not ashamed to admit it!) Current Works I'm currently working on what I would call my biggest project yet, The Women of Exos trilogy, which is aimed to discover the true nature of Good and Evil. The first two novels are now complete, and the third one is sitting on the back-burner for a while, as I attempt to figure out the best way to come at it. I've just completed my first more "teen" novel, aimed at people who don't want lots of sex and violence, called Gunmetal and Lace, the prologue of which is posted on here for some serious R&R. As for my next project, I currently don't have one in mind. You've got to love this transitional period. :) Unfinished works Ah, I know some of you people out there may be wondering why I have a lot of unfinished work on the go all at once Cough-WickedFascination-AWorldWithoutHeroes-Cough and there's only one answer to these questions. Yes, I do plan on finishing them at some point, but I have so many ideas I find myself getting sidetracked. If it's not finished now it will be finished at some point soon... Sorry guys! xoxox Love Kitty | |||||||||||
