Hey there, reader!

Kirsten's my name and writing's my game. I was born in Kansas City, MO but moved to southeast Missouri before the age of one. Twelve years later I moved to northeast Kansas where I graduated from high school. I decided to get out of the Midwest and am now attending college in southern California. I am currently a history major, but am considering changing my major to German with a minor in International Affairs. Some of my interests besides writing include: music (I play the organ), reading (of course), ancient civilizations, languages, video games, and ice cream (true story).

My writing playlist includes: OOMPH!, Linkin Park, Rammstein, Disney songs, Classical music, and the soundtrack to Avatar: The Last Airbender.

My two guilty pleasures are the Twilight Saga and World of Warcraft.

My favorite historical figure/role model is Martin Luther, German monk and accidental founder of the Lutheran religion. He was a man that stood up for what he believed in and wouldn't back down, not even with the threat of death hanging over him. "I cannot and I will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I cannot do otherwise. God help me. Amen." - Martin Luther

I hope you enjoy your stay here on my page and find some things worth reading. May the Peace and the Force be with you always.

Sincerely,

Your magniloquent author
