Pen name: Danae Black

I live in Chicago, IL. I am currently a student, but my goal is to become a cinematic make up artist. I have a cinematic obsession. Any help at all is greatly appreciated. Some of my past times are reading and writing, marching band, theatre, and playing my clarinet. I am a cosmetologist as of right now. I'm politically apathetic. I'm a pessimist, but I don't let it get in the way. I'm also cynical, and I enjoy it. Some think I'm neurotic (and are probably right), but most know not to mess with me. I have accepted that I am, to some degree, delusional. I don't have a conscience, either. I plan on living forever. I like talking to people. Feel free to e-mail me. I could also really use a beta reader. I'm also available for someone if they want me to beta read. I enjoy it.

If it's not fiction, I don't like it. End of story.

Specialty: Writing

Pet Peeves: typos, incorrect grammar, people who don't review, writer's block, nasty pairings, bad plots, people who don't update their stories when the stories are worth reading, people who don't take obvious hints and keep posting because they crank out good material, stories that can't be remembered due to a fear of getting writer's block when trying to crank out good material . . .

Yes, a few of those I am guilty of.

Subjects my stories in progress currently belong to: Harry Potter, Peter Pan, Hellboy, CSI: Miami, Labyrinth, Anita Blake Vampire Hunter, Chronicles of Narnia, Star Wars, Farscape, and a few originals. (PS. These are just the stories I can remember. Yes, there are more, and yes, I keep them inside my head. Or rather, my Genius does.) I'm never going to know when anything will get posted. I have this nasty unrational, unexplainable fear of posting my work.

My preference on The Side of things: I am a villianesse. I also like my anti-heroes just fine.

I also believe the world will end before the end of my life time, in about 80 years or so. Or it never will.

I'll post my stories one day. I hope.

For now, I read. =D
