WastefulWaifhide bio
 Author has written 2 stories for Once Upon a Time. I'm a 23-year-old lady and moving for a new job in mid-June. It's farther north than I've ever lived and my wardrobe reflects how poorly prepared I am for that transition. In college I took a semester of Latin and became fascinated with intensive pronouns. And learned I'm not great at Latin. I do enjoy other things. Like beta reading, The Magnetic Fields, and comfortable shoes. My current project is "What Once was Lost." Each chapter I try to observe certain challenges to myself: write no more than three pages, remain consistent with specific symbols, and end with some kind of cliff-hanger. Way too much thought has gone in to it; I'll excitedly discuss if you're interested and hope that you enjoy it! | |||||||

What Once was Lost reviews
After an altercation at the town line, Belle is in the hospital. Sans memories. Dr. Whale explained it would be normal for her to have conditioned responses. Feelings without context. None were more powerful or more curious than her reaction to Mr. Gold. [Updated. AT Set around 2x14.]
