About Me
Ah! Here you are, trying to figure out more about me. Obviously you like my writing enough to come here and check me out. As much as I appreciate that, I'm not sure I want to tell you the deepest secrets of my innermost soul. Not yet, anyway. I will tell you a few things.
Age: 25
Gender: Female
Name: Cori
Pets: Spooky the Gecko and six unkillable plants.
Home: I live in a dinky town in the middle of nowhere in Northern Minnesota. The mosquitoes are so big I was afraid they'd carry off Spooky, so I bought him a lid for his cage. :D
Favorites: I love to write, draw, and dance. My dream is to publish a book some day and I'm working at getting better every day. I don't have as much time to sit down and write as I wish I did as I have a very hectic life. I also love spagetti and all things saucy and noodle-y. Oh, and my favorite color changes depending on when I get up in the morning. Usually it's bluish, greenish, or purplish though.
Website: cordria.deviantart.com
Email or MSN messenger: Sure - just send me a note!
Right- or Left-handed: Depends on the day of the week.
Addicted to: Chocolate, ice cream, chocolate, pomogranites, chocolate, and spider solitare (what's worse... the fact that I can't win or the fact that I can't stop playing?)
General FanArt: Carroll-Grimm: Happy Birthday Cori, Magpie8spook: Happy Birthday Cordria
Beta-read?: Yeah, I will beta-read for you, please send me a message. However... be prepared for constructive criticism and not just all warm-fuzzies. I usually get stories back in two or three days.
