Five things:

-I am physically incapable of holding still when I hear music. I am too in love with dancing.
-I like to create things. I'm likely to produce anything from choreography for a lyrical style dance to a dress made out of T-shirt and jean scraps in any given day.
-I can't decide if I want to be a bakery owner or a teacher. Either way, I'll be in Japan.
-Aside from Doctor Who and some anime, I abhor television programs.
-I don't like to interact face-to-face with anyone but my best friend and my immediate family.

Here's how I work on here:

Writing:
-My best genre for multi-chaptered fics is drama.
-My characters often have problems that have nothing to do with the fandom I'm writing in. For a longfic in PoT, it isn't likely that my character will even play tennis.
-Within two weeks of my latest post, I will update on a serious multi-chaptered fic. Other than that, don't bug me about it. I'm a little busy being alive.
-As far as reviews, they make my day (just like they do for everyone else). Pretty please?
-Flames? Please? Bring the heat. Though I don't appreciate open hostility in most other situations, rip my writing to pieces if you want. I live to improve.

Adding to my favorite stories/authors:
-I either have to know you or be so impressed with your story that I immediately want to start over as soon as I'm finished to add it.
-Likewise, stories have to be consistently of that standard for me to add you to my favorite authors list...or I have to know you.
-One loophole to impressing me with the whole story: make me cry. Actually, if I feel any overwhelming emotion at the situations characters are put in, I'll probably add the story to my list.
-Obviously, that hasn't happened yet. Perhaps now would be a good time to point out that I'm an instinctual critic.

-The likelihood of someone getting a review from Lily Valley isn't very high. But I do review...just not under this name.

"A writer is a person for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people." -Thomas Mann

I've been taken over by the compelling urge to do anything BUT sit in front of the computer and write/read. It's looking like I'll have something new to put up in a couple weeks, though.
