Hello...! I'm 21 years old. I'm female. I hail from Manchester, UK. I used to be brightflame but decided on changing it to make it more personal...I'm still the same person!

I'm a university student at the moment but writing is a great hobby of mine. Most of my stories are quite long as I like developing characters and plots in great detail but I'm trying to write shorter ones so as to hold the attention of more people ;)

I get inspiration for poems from my experiences usually and my poems are normally a pouring out of my emotions. Sometimes they don't make sense, or flow, or rhyme, or go, but that's the beauty of a poem right? The first capture of words is raw and natural compared with a piece that's been refined many times. Anyway, please read them as I'm not as good at poem writing and would value feedback and improvement tips.

I'd love reviews, they would motivate me to write more! :)

FAVOURITE BOOKS:
To Kill A Mockingbird - Harper Lee (how can you not?)
Danny, the Champion of the World - Roald Dahl (my absolute favourite by one of my favourite authors, when I was younger and now)
Angels and Demons - Dan Brown
Great Expectations - Charles Dickens (just GREAT, simply put)
His Dark Materials trilogy - Phillip Pullman

And there are loads or pure awesome books that I can't mention as there are too many!

FAVOURITE MOVIES:
As a movieholic, I have to put this in somewhere. Whenever anyone asks me this irritating question, I have an answer ready. There are five:
The Lion King (STILL makes me cry like a baby)
The Green Mile
Rain Man
Midnight Run
The Neverending Story

And for completeness...

FAVOURITE TV SHOWS:
Fawlty Towers (EPICNESS)
Only Fools and Horses
Doctor Who
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation
The Fresh Prince of Bel Air/My Wife And Kids ('fraid I can't decide between them so they can both go on!)
Most programmes on Discovery, History channel or National Geographic...yep you read right

STEALTH:
To all those who were reading Stealth, I apologise for removing it, I realised it needed a bit more work and tweaking and I may need to change the chapters I'd already put up. May put it up again in the future.
