Well, I figured that it was about time I put something up here. So, for starters, I love to read. I mostly read Fantasy/Fiction, but there are a few non-Fiction books that I like. For instance - if you're into science, I'd recomend The Story of Sicence by Joy Hakim - it's really good and it's easy to read - as in, well, fun to read. And I know that I just listed a non-Fiction book, but I don't really have time to list all of my favorite fiction books, so . . . How about authors? I like Tamor Pierce, J.K. Rowling, Stephanie Meyer, Eva Ibbotson, Cornelia Funke, David Eddings, Terry Pratchett, Diana Wynn-Jones, Tanith Lee, Cate Tiernan, Hans Christian Andersen, The Brothers Grim - not necessarily in that order, but . . . Oh. And I like a few classics, but I haven't read more than a few, and I can hardly list an author whose works I've only read one or two of can I? My favorite classic, at the moment, is Jane Erye - it's a marvelous book. O.K., moving on. I watch only four t.v. shows, and those not even regularly. They are Monk, Heros, Poirot, and Nova. With movies, I'm pretty versatile in what I like, but I refuse to watch horror films. I had a bad experience with a movie that, according to my dad, was supposed to be a comedy. I was seven, and it scared me out of my wits - that kind of ruined moster movies for me. I do like movies though, and they go from Disney to modern romantic comedies to old black and white films (I love Cary Grant!) to musicals (And I think these are my favorites.) to murder mysteries (Those don't bother me.) to sad-but-meaningful movies to, well, movies that I don't really have a genre for. Music. I love music as well. In fact, I like almost all types of music. I don't enjoy rap, because of all of the curse words and the lack of melody, but other than that I'm pretty accepting in the world of music. I love classical music, but showtunes are my favorites - they have lyrics, and they have a meaning. I listen to a lot of country, because that's what my dad likes, but I also like disco, pop, rock and roll, and jazz. I really can't list favorite songs, because I'd be here all day but I think I've made it clear that I like pretty much anything. Next? I have about a million favorite quotes, (I'm just really big on quotes.) I adore logic puzzles, I am a complete grammar stickler, (I am still learning, but I'd recon I know more about grammar than the average person - which reminds me to recomend Eats, Shoots and Leaves by Lynn Truss.) I enjoy school, (Shocking, I know.) I loathe homework, (It takes away my free time.) I love explaining things, (Which has probably been made obvious by all of my loverly paraenthesis.) I am not offended by correction, (Unless the person making the correction is doing it rudely.) I think that we need a revival of good manners, (Just take a look around almost any public school - you'll see why.) I'm rather quiet sometimes, (That does not, however, mean that I have no opinions, nor that I'm too afraid to voice them - quietness is my choice. It really bothers me when people assume that just because you're quiet you're either opinionless, or you're really smart and are just too shy to show it.) I don't say half of what I think, and I do tells lies, (This goes with the whole quite thing - and they're not large lies - things like yes, I went to bed at ten when I really stayed up reading half the night.) I'm don't have the best of personalities, (I don't have to worst either, I like to believe that I'm kind and smart, but I know that I have very little humility - in my own mind anyway.) I have to admit that I'm somewhat arrogant, (I can't really help myself. I don't know what else there is to say about this.) I have a definite superiority complex, (Not towards everyone - only those people who are ignorant and don't want to become less ignorant. I don't have a problem with people who don't have a lot of knowledge as long as they would like more - I have a large problem with people who laugh about how stupid they are, and I can't help but feel better than them.) I'm sure I'll add more sometime - as it is, you probably now know more about me than you'd like. Now, I realize that I've told you that I'm rather quite sometimes, but I'm afraid that, unfortunately for you, I'm in a talkative mood today. I love people watching - I'll go and sit and watch people and if I see someone interesting enough, I'll make up personalities for them based entirely on the way they look - not something I'd recomend if you're going to try living entirely in fact. Thankfully I gave that up years ago, and I now live part time in fantasy - actually the more acurate description would probably be that I work part time in fact - you see, I spend more of my time in fantasy and that's always less work than fact takes anyways. I do love attention, which is why I've given you so much information about myself - but I'm not going to try and get it from people I interact face to face with because I also like to be left alone at times and the computer is something I can easily ignore if I start getting too much attention from it. Not that I'd flatter myself to think that that many people would pay attention to me but . . . hey. I already admitted to living in Fantasy for more time than I spend in fact so - I'll pretend people are paying attention to me while they're really having loads of fun ignoring me and then everyone's happy. I want to become an author someday, and I have a whole notebook full of ideas - ideas aren't the hard part. Ideas come naturally to me; I can create a world or outline a basic plotline for a novel in a couple of hours. It's the actual writing that gets me. Not that I have anything against writing - I love to write almost as much as I love to read - scratch that - I do love it as much. That's why I want to become a writer. The problem with me is that I'm terribly lazy. I sigh about it every once in while and then go back to accepting it. So I have this notebook full of ideas that I'm constantly expanding upon - you can't help it when you live in Fantasy - and yet I've yet to get to the actual writing. The funny part is that the story I've got the first couple of chapters written for is my least favorite. Laugh with me. Please. I almost didn't write this, but then I became inspired - that happens every once in while too and I never cease to be amazed at the amount of work I can get done when I'm not too buzy being lazy. So . . . I actually started a fanfic - that's why I got the account - that and so that I could leave comments on other people's stories - but I'm not sure it'll get on here. It's one of the few stories I don't have an outline for and I know without an outline I'll have no idea where to go and I'll become overwhelmed and I'll just stop writing and I don't want to actually get some people to like my writing and then just leave them hanging so . . . I'll have to work out a more complete outline before I start to post anything - I have a basic one. You know what? I just realized that I have a story that was originally for a different website that (again) never got written that I have a complete outline for that I could start writing. I even have the first chapter of that one done! It's for a different book that the other one I mentioned, and I might have to look into restarting it. Actually I like that one a lot better than the first one I was talking about anyways - It's a lot easier to write because it's got a much shorter time span. Hmm . . . That's pretty much me. Oh, and I mentioned that one of the reasons I got an account was so that I could leave comments. If anyone ever reads this, don't forget to comment on your favorite stories! I know that if I ever get a story up, I'll be desperate for comments even if I don't admit it on my story - so don't forget them! Ever! |
