I am 17 years old and currently not yet out of my senior year in high school. I tend to write and draw a lot and most of the time I'm drawing what I write! I get most of my inpiration from the anime I watch and everyday occurances. In addition to concentrating on my works, I tend to act like a teacher around my friends. They ask me, and a few others, to read their work constantly and it's gotten to the point where they can hand me their writing and my hand immediately extends for a pen. They don't mind in a least, in fact, we view it as me, and the other people, helping them and they learn quickly because of it. It's cool on my part as well because I get the experience and practice I need, so everyone wins!

Mostly I read stories in the fantasy genre. Anime holds a great part in it, but there are other works such as Harry Potter, The Chronicals of Chrestomancy, Artemis Fowl, and a few others that I'm particularly fond of. I personally believe that J.K. Rowling is brilliant with her underlying meanings and references, things that some people might not be able to notice without assistance. J.R.R. Tolkien, another author that I'm recently read up on is just as brilliant, but in a more surface way. But I view them as equal, so you'll hear no complaints from me. Diane Wynn Jones, the author of The Chronicals of Chrestomancy, ranks up there with the first two and the same goes for Eoin Colfer, the author of Artemis Fowl. ^_^
