I'm a writer.

I guess that's pretty damn vague around here, but i mean, i'm only 21, so there isn't much for me to elaborate on. I write poetry, i write short stories, and recently i've been working on a novel that i hope to finish before i get out of high school.

I live in New Jersey, so close to the water that i can smell the ocean outside my window, however I recently started university in the heart of New York City, and I couldn't possibly be more excited about it. Even though i'm a Jersey girl from birth (who just recently learned how to pump my own gas), i've always been a city girl at heart.

English is my second language, so bear with me. Though i find that i don't make nearly as many errors as i used to, i still apologize in advance if i make any. I'm Polish, and i spoke only Polish until i was 7 years old. My accent is so subtle that you can only really notice it there if you're looking for it. Though, all of my friends here in university say that my Jersey accent is much more noticeable than I ever thought haha

For me, writing is an outlet. I'm a very liberal, lesbian teenage girl growing up in a conservative, strict roman catholic, eastern european household. I've definitely had my fair share of personal troubles. I've struggled with eating disorders and self injury for years. I don't consider myself free from either, and i know that i still have a long battle with both ahead of me. I don't stray away from these topics though, because my writing is like my therapy. the voices of my characters are the things that i could never say out loud.

Life is a journey with many ups and downs, and i'm just hoping to come out on top when the day is done.

On of my favorite song lyrics is :

"Oh how wrong were we to believe that immortality meant never dying."

For me, my writing is my immortality. forever being inscribed in my wording. forever to be viewed. forever to be heard. Forever being.

I don't bite :) send me a PM or something and say hi. i'm friendly. promise.

Follow my tumblr :)

please, if someone somehow knows who i am, don't mention it anywhere. no one i know in real life has ever said anything to me about my fanfiction, so i'm assuming no one knows i write it. however, telling more about my life makes it more likely that someone will recognize me. if you do, i just ask that you keep my confidentiality.

thank you
