BRANDON T.

That's me. So. Hm. I don't really know what to say in this spot because I'm not used to talking about myself. You know my name and that's about all you really need to know since I'm a pretty dull guy. I live in Alabama. If you don't know, that's a state in the Southeast United States. We're in what's referred to as the Deep South, but I lack the Southern accent, SADNESS. WOE, DOUBLE WOE. Yep. Feel my disappointment over that. Let's see... I'm nineteen, I turn twenty in June so huzzah. JUNE 1, as a matter of fact, so send me cookies and much love on that day. Let's see... let's see... I'm mainly a friendly guy. Easy to get along with, constantly looking for things to read and to fill my brain with since my brain is greedy and loves to be fed things. I'm currently studying Biochemistry and Neuroscience with minors in Psychology and Cell & Molecular Biology though I honestly DETEST CELL BIOLOGY; IT IS THE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE AND MY SOUL AND--OH. I'm an English Lit. minor too.

Which is maybe why I read so much literary fiction. That's right, I'm all about classic literature and literary fiction likewhoa. A Twilight fan, I am not. IN ANY DIMENSION. It is... Nope. I will not alienate a possible reader. Suffice it to say, I don't like it, but if you do... well, we all have our likes and dislikes! And in the end, we're all human so yay. My favorite author at the moment is probably Henry James. I'm reading The Golden Bowl and I must say that I'm in love with it. Fantastic novel even if his style is a bit hard to read due to all of the sentences that go on and on and on. But, really, great stuff. I also love Jane Austen. -swoon- She is the light of my life. PRIDE AND PREJUDICE FTW. I'm also reading six or so other novels at the moment... too many to name. But they're all great and I might mention them at a later time.

AS FOR WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT IN MY STORIES... Uhm. I don't know. I try to bring realism to whatever I write. Realism and my own voice and style. I try to write characters from the inside out, meaning you won't see a lot of "the boy did this" and "the elder so and so did that". I'm detailed. Meticulous, but more importantly, I feel that I'm true to the character and true the emotions of the scene. I focus a lot on the internal and sometimes the externalis forgotten a bit, but that's NOT AS BAD AS IT WAS, SO MUCH BETTER. My style is lyrical prose and my genre would probably be literary fiction. Literary fanfiction? YES. THAT'S RIGHT. LITERARY FANFICTION. With deep, psychological elements and not so much on the trite plot lines. So... yeah. Yay. I love reviews and I love dialogue about writing and character so don't hesitate to message me, about anything! I love reading fanfiction too so feel free to message me just to recommend things or to chat.
