Greetings, everyone! I am Dannielle, and I love to... write. Big surprise, huh? I've actually written a full-length novel (310 pages on Microsoft Word), so I'm busy editing that. MAJOR groan Anyhow, I also love to read (I am a certified bibliophile), sing, and act. My career plans are actor/writer, and trust me; I'm determined enough to succeed. Anyhow, here are some random facts:

Favorite Book Genre: Tie between historical fiction and fantasy

Favorite Books: The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark (really a play, but I love it) by William Shakespeare, Twilight by Stephenie Meyer (I love Edward Cullen), Gone With the Wind by Margaret Mitchell, and The Constant Princess by Philippa Gregory.

Favorite Author: William Shakespeare. Who else?

Favorite Color: Forest Green

Favorite Disney Prince Based on Looks: Prince Philip

Favorite Disney Prince/Male Lead Based on Voice: Tie between Aladdin and the guy from Mulan

Favorite Disney Prince/Male Lead Overall: Aladdin

Favorite Disney Movie: Beauty and the Beast

Favorite Movies: Miracle, Timeline, The Day After Tomorrow, Paycheck, Dead Poets Society, The Outsiders, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Return of the King, and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.

Favorite TV Shows: House M. D., Smallville, Life With Derek, and pretty much everything on the History Channel

Favorite Queen of England (for various reasons): Mary I

Least Favorite Queen of England (for various reasons, such as the fact that she- and this can be proved- usurped the throne): Elizabeth I

Favorite Type of Fencing Weapon: Sabre, all the way

Favorite Sport: Ice hockey (I play)

Favorite Horse Breed: Lipizzaner

Favorite Monty Python Sketches (I love Monty Python!): Dead Parrot, Ministry of Silly Walks, The Mouse Problem, Hitler in England, and The Cheese Shop

Of course, with the Harry Potter craze, I should put some of those facts on here, too, huh? Really, I like the series but it's not my favorite, so don't think I'm insanely obsessed. But mention Hamlet, and I begin twitching with excitement. However, Shakespearian fan fiction isn't as popular and the Bard's work is already perfect, so...

Favorite Harry Potter Book: Tie between Prisonor of Azkaban and Deathly Hallows

Favorite Harry Potter Characters: Gred and Forge (Fred and George), Professor McGonagall, Severus Snape, Rubeus Hagrid, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Angelina Johnson, and Oliver Wood.

Favorite Harry Potter Quotes: The amazing "You haven't got a letter on yours. I suppose she thinks you don't forget your name. But we're not stupid - we know we're called Gred and Forge," quote is the best, but I also like one of Oliver Wood's. "Bad news, Harry. I've just been to see Professor McGonagall about the Firebolt. She - er - got a bit shirty with me. Told me I'd got my priorities wrong. Seemed to think I cared more about winning the Cup than I do about you staying alive. Just because I told her I didn't care if it threw you off, as long as you caught the Snitch first. Honestly, the way she was yelling at me... you'd think I'd said somthing terrible..." I love it! And really anything Gred and Forge say... They're simply marvelous!

As for my friends, ladyclaire4161 and princesskiri14 have both been writing fan fiction for a while. When another friend came up to me a few weeks ago and told me she, too writes fan fiction and I should do so, too, I was finally convinced.

I am currently working on my first story, which I'm going to put up soon. I've been writing quite a bit of it before posting anything to ensure I don't get behind. From the moment I finished the last Harry Potter book (8 AM 21 July 2007, in case you really care :) )- well, when I finished the chapter The Elder Wand- I began this story. Oh yeah, major spoiler warning, here. Anyhow, it's about how Forge deals with (tear, tear) Gred's death. Please read and review! Also, read my friends' stories because they are awesome! And read ladyclaire's bio. There are two (embarassing, unfortunately) quotes from yours truly! And many others from my friends. As for my own bio, I really need to get some great Claire quotes to share with you all. Sweet revenge! Mwa ha ha!
