Hi my name is Charlotte! This is my first attempt at publishing anything I have written for the public eye. However do not think I joined this site because I am super good at writing. In fact I am quite a novice, an amateur. I tend to write stories based on Historical or Fantasy events. I have a wild fascination for Jane Austen, well any period Drama really. I love Vampire books and movies, but I can not stand Twilight, so please spare me any conversations about it. I also have a fascination for the Tudors, or any other aristocracy; such as The Duchess, Marie Antoinette etc. I also love books written close to home by the author Catherine Cookson, her books are based in the region I live; so it has a snare at my heart.

I guess I started writing when I was young keeping a journal, (Which I think is the normal scenario for most people who start a writing life). I eventually started to write more short stories based on books I had read. I made a poor attempt at Mr's Medlocks point of view from the novel "The Secret Garden". Needless to say I failed miserably. But that was my first attempt at creative writing. I like to think I base the way I live my life of the history of the world. I don't curtsey like they do in the books, but I like to base my manners on them. For instance, no children till wed. Guest's sit first. Basic Etiquette for a woman.

I like to do an indepth study of what I am going to write first. And with most of the things I write about are in books, well lets just say I have a very exstentive library. All the Jane Austen's, Charlotte Bronte, Charles Dicksons, The Marquess Desade, Phillipa Gregory, Lord of the rings, G.P Taylor, Colleen Gleason's: The Gardella Vampire Chronicles..The list goes on. The only modern things I have read, ever, is Goosebumps when I was perhaps 14 in school. Lets just say I passed history and English in school with flying colours.

However I hope with this brief description of my creative abilities you understand how I work and I apologise in advance if I am as bad then I say I am.
