Boring junk you might like to know about me.

FACTS:

I'm 18. (I was born on Oct. 10 1984)

I'm a Senior (Grade 12)

I've only been writing original stories for fun for about three years.

Nightingale is the first (and only) complete story I've ever written. (It's a TERRIBLE Mary Sue I'm afraid) Since then I've dedcided to stick with established characters for my stories.

I won't be able to update the stories often as I have a lot of school work (3 AP classes! Ahhhhhhhh) but I hope to finish Eastern Dragon Western Wind soon. I think I only have one more chapter to write! Which is on hold because I've hit a complete writers block. If you have any ideas please, please, help!)

Besides writing stories I also draw. I love cartoons and anime. The idea of capturing action and emotion through as few lines as possible is fascinating to me.

I also play the trombone in my school band/marching band and in a local orchestra.

Things I like:

Reviews, negative ones are good as long as they aren't flames and are constructive. Writing down that you hate the story isn't helpful. It's better to explain WHY you don't like the story.

Music in general just about anything but pop, country and opera.

Cartoons, Saturday morning I'm SOOOOOoooo there!

Reading, The best way to learn how to be a good writer is to read A LOT!

Things I DON'T like

When people copy another persons work and claim that it's their own

When people interrupt their really good story with author comments. Most of the time readers won't even notice a mistake/false info. Just add a foot note to the bottem if you feel like you need to inform the public.

Commercials

Bananas

Lots of Homework

Coffee

My Band teacher ;)

Fav. Quotes:

"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent" -Eleanor Roosevelt-

"Even if you're on the right track you'll get run over if you just sit there." -Erik Hoffer-

"Which can say more than this rich praise that you alone are you." -William Shakespeare-

"Be loud, be proud" -Victor Chen- (fellow band student, who is actually consorting with the fascist dictator of DOOM! aka: my Band teacher)

That's pretty much it and remember...

KEEP YOUR FORK! (there is a story behind this too, E-mail me if you want to know it)
