I was never the girl next door...

Well hello there! I suppose I'll tell a little about myself. My name is Nikki and I am 25 years old. I've been writing my whole life, and only just recently have I tried my hand again at it. Everyone I've talked to says I have a 'gift' that I'm wasting-I guess they're right. I see this more of a hobby than an income at the moment. So sit back, relax and enjoy the ride my crazy ass mind has to offer!

My likes: my music, supporting local bands (and the not so local ones anymore, I've met a bunch of people), going to concerts/shows, writing, reading. I'm kind of a geek..I don't really watch a bunch of tv anymore since I don't have cable so my main focus now is movies. My favs are: The Crow, Dogma, Eternal Sunshine, Across the Universe, Kill Bill vol. 1&2, and a bunch of others. Some of my fav. bands are: MSI, Rancid, MCR, Dropkick Murphys, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Paramore, Bayside, Hawthorne Heights, The Birthday Massacre, and a ton others. Most of these bands I have actually met and are more than willing to explain my experiences..I love photography and actually my dream job is to take pictures of bands for some sort of magazine (like AP or Rolling Stone or something)

My Obsessions: Special Effects hair color, piercings, my ever growing adornment of ink (I currently have 9, half sleeve done :D) Bettie Page, Books, Anything retro, auto racing, old muscle cars, writing once again-although it's at a less frequent pace.

Current News: 3/25/11- Whoa two updates in a day!! Cause I couldn't stop writing it's a bonus today- Chapter 13 enjoy!

Oldies, but goodies: 3/25/11- Chapter 12 is up! It's kind of filler, but it's good nontheless. Chapter 13 is being typed up as we speak so look out for that soon :)

Character Pics: I can't believe I'm really doing this, but just to give you guys an idea of what these people look like since I don't really describe my characters in extreme detail.

Dear Tragedy/Serendipity:

-Hayley (I kind of always envisioned her like Tracy Phillips) http:///images/tphillipssit.jpg

-Jayme (he is actually inspired by my ex boyfriend who I am still good friends with. I kind of wanted him to look like Johnny 'beatz' Holohan from Bayside-RIP my love): http:///photos/uncategorized/beatz_compressed.jpg

-Liv: (this one took a while, as I wanted her to look like the singer in a band, not some random emo chick wannabe) http:///females/taken/Libby.jpg
