Hello!

I am an archaeologist (that doesn't like to get dirty) by day and a writer by night! My interests are very much in Native American archaeology (especially the politics) and may perhaps explain my obsession with wolves ( not Twilight I assure even though Taylor Lautner is very hot if regretfully a tad on the young side). when I am not studying (which seems to be all the time at the moment) I love to write, read, drink copious amounts of tea and coffee and engage in a little frivolity as every self-respecting student should! I love to peruse around old buildings, dreaming of the day when Mr. Darcy deigns to appear on my door step. Until that day arrives I am an addict - shopping of course! I love buying clothes especially dresses and wearing pearls. I like to dance especially to journey at four in the morning in a terrible chinese restaurant-cum-club that has been shut down countless time by health and safety. I love when people tell me they love my Irish accent when I know they couldn't possibly be talking about the accent I hear! I love Irish history right from the celtic mythologies up to the good old politics. I love my family. I love Gerard Butler. I love Paolo Nutini. I love making up weird dances with my housemate when we're bored. I love poetry although I cannot string a decent rhyme together to save my life. I love day dreaming and I'll love you if you read my stories which god willing they'll be plenty!
