I'm just a simple lover of the written word. I'm also a musician. This makes me the most tempermental person in the world ;-).

My favorite story/book/play/musical/etc. is The Phantom of the Opera. I also have a deep love of Greek mythology. So i spend a good deal of my time in those fandoms.

I'm a theatre kid, too. My favorite role I've played is probably Emilia in Othello (it's fun to scream "fie upon thee strumpet!"), but I have a weakness for Shakespeare.

Favorite books: The Phantom of the Opera, Susan Kay's Phantom, Wuthering Heights, The Count of Monte Cristo, The Vampire Chronicles, The Lord of the Rings, Edith Hamilton's Mythology, Gone with the Wind

Favorite plays: The Phantom of the Opera (Hugh Panaro baby! he's amazing!), Les Miserables, Jekyll and Hyde, Wicked, Jesus Christ Superstar, Rent, Cats, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Aida, Evita, The Last Five Years, Lestat (see note on Phantom)

Favorite band: Queen!

Favorite movies: The Princess Bride, The Blues Brothers, The Phantom of the Opera, RENT, Intolerable Cruelty

So that's the ABC's of me (to quote Jerry Maguire).
