After "accidentally" stumbling upon the world of Fan Fiction, I am surprised to find myself here. How was it an accident? Well, at my university they offered a half-year course. According to the website it was called "The Short Story" and the entire course was to be focused on all elements of appropriately and effectively creating a short story. Little did I know that the website description was only applicable for the first semester. Come second semester my darling little Short Story class was turned into the course for Fan Fiction! Nearly ready to grab my bag and leave, I saw a friend in the class and decided to give it a try. After the first class I wasn't entirely weirded out, so I stayed for the second. And then we were assigned Drabbles, Missing Scenes, and we were allowed to write different endings, or create different worlds for our favourite characters to live within.

Well, the course is now at an end and here I am still interested in writing new Fan Fiction. Could it be that I have been bit by the Fan-Fic-Bug? We'll just have to see.

If you've stumbled upon my profile, then it seems only polite that I give you a brief introduction to who I am.

Well, I am freckled-smile and I love to write.

Too short? Ok. Well... I have two cats, two dogs, some frogs, a hamster and probably some other animal of which I am not yet aware. My little sister is still at an age where she brings home animals and we have to keep them. This would be great, but our animals never seem to die. Seems morbid? Well, I currently have a 20 year-old cat that lives under my bed. Every few days we go in to see if he's still breathing, and by Joe he still is, but he weighs about a pound and has lost all control of his bodily functions. So, on any given night, I am usually woken up by the sound of laboured vomiting, the foul scent of fresh poop on the carpet, or the gentle flow of pee regardless of where he stands. And again, it is because of the previously mentioned younger sibling that this elderly and senile animals has not yet been to the vet for the final needle. Oh, and did I mention that he's blind, only has two teeth left and has what the vets have described as "feline down-syndrome"? I wish I were kidding.

Other than that I live in a three-bedroom house with six people and one bathroom near school. When I need a break, I generally come home to the zoo, but it never is an actual break and I end up leaving with the promise of never returning. I never seem to learn my lesson though, as I come home every time with the hope of a better time. It's not that I don't love my family, it's just that I love my independence a bit more. That, and being woken up at 7am to move cars around, or to take my sister to school is never fun after a long night out.

Alas, you did not come to learn about the quirks of a generic university student. If you want the skinny on that, check out The Hills and remove all of the glam, the drama and the scripted moments, and make them smarter, have ambitions and give them a future. In case you can't tell, I won't be posting anything to that community, though I am sure that I could write a script that parallels a normal one any day. "Daddy, give me money. Generic hot guy broke up with me because I have no personality and I want some retail therapy. Oh, and excuse me because I need to go throw up my grapes that I ate for breakfast."

Anyway, I digress.

I will most likely only be submitting works into the following communities:

Heroes

Twilight

Harry Potter

and maybe Bones, because I love the show.

If I do write about Bones, I warn in advance that I will be acting out my heart's desires and will make Brennan and Booth finally get together, because, really, who isn't getting just a little bit of vicarious sexual frustrations from seeing the two of them together?

As far as reviews on my pieces go, I don't want the happy and empty comments. One of my greatest ambitions is to write a book and go to graduate school for writing. Because of this, I am asking for feedback that is beneficial and that I can learn from. For example, I just ended a sentence in a preposition. Beat me up for that.

I look forward to many hours spent on this website. Hopefully I'll transfer my time from facebook to fanfiction so that I can stop being such a creep. At least I'll be reading if I am on here...
