Hi! I'm a 19 year old (I turned 19 September 24!!) college freshman, Christian girl who loves books, frogs (duh, see name), lofty words, and rock music. My real name you need not know--Frogster will suffice.

Since I love books, my fanfics will most certainly evolve from some of my favorite books, although a couple of my own writings might sneak in too. My favorite books are: Enna Burning (favorite book ever, and the basis for my first fanfic) and other novels written by the fantastic Shannon Hale, Dante's Daughter, Crown Duel, The DragonKeeper Chronicles, Pride and Prejudice, Green Rider series, The Great Tree of Avalon series, East, The Shamer Chronicles, I, Elizabeth, A Great and Terrible Beauty, Fire Arrow, Howl's Moving Castle, Wildwood Dancing, The Naming, The Hollow Kingdom, Graceling, and too many more to list...

I just noticed that I don't have my favorite bands up here, so here we go...Stone Temple Pilots, Flyleaf, Panic! At the Disco, Metallica, Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Coldplay, Paramore, Life, and probably some more that I can't think of.

Now for my dislikes: cheese (except on pizza), green peppers, profanity (especially excessive use of it). Another big thing with me is slash. I can't stand it; I believe it to be a sin and not parallel to my Christian upbringing. So, I won't write or read slash. Another dislike is when people use Holland to mean the Netherlands as a whole...but that's a long story that I won't get into here.

Some of my friends have accounts, too (that's how I got introduced to fanfiction, and now I'm addicted): Blondie91, damarshmallow, and jupiter-lightning. They're gamers, though, so their fanfics are mostly Legend of Zelda (LoZ) or Kingdom Hearts. I'm not a gamer myself, but I do show support and try to follow along (x inwardly groans x). It does get a little frustrating sometimes, but they are all fantastic authors, so they're pretty easy to follow.

My favorite author is Shannon Hale- here's her website if you'd like to check it out: www.shannonhale.com

If you have heard of Shannon Hale and love her books, copy and paste this into your profile.

Be sure to check out my friends' pages, and be sure to read and review! Reviewing really makes me happy!

"Fairy tales are more than true; not because they tell us the dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." F. K. Chesterton (If you've read Enna Burning you'll know what kind of "dragons" I'm talking about: the great, constant struggles in our lives. It's certainly not the dragons from the DragonKeeper Chronicles.)

“How do I feel about you? I feel everything about you. You are the only thing that makes me angry, the only one who can really make me sad, I’m only ever happy because of something you did, and you’re the only one who has enough of me to break my heart. It doesn’t matter if a thousand people tell me I’m beautiful if I haven’t heard it from you. I don’t know if I’ve had a good day until I come home to you. And I am so tied up in loving you that nothing else even matters anymore except the fact that you aren’t mine and that is how you hurt me because I know you will never feel the same way about me." It's About Time, a Dasey fanfic from white-doe (check her out, she's amazing!)

“Just looking, you know. For that tattoo. The one which reads ‘Property of Derek Venturi.’”

She can see him smile slightly in the mirror and it’s stupid and cliché but she can’t tear her eyes off. “You’ll have to go deeper than that, Case. I’m probably in your bloodstream by now. Running through your veins. There's probably not a part of you left that doesn't scream my name.” He stops abruptly, probably realizing it had come out sounding completely, utterly, irrevocably wrong.

(And it’s hilarious that there’s nothing funny about it.) From Distraction, one of the many fantabulous fics by WhenLighteningStrikes (who rocks my socks off, she's so amazing! Hurry, go check her out!)

FAITH IS NOT BELIEVING THAT GOD CAN...IT IS KNOWING THAT HE WILL BE KINDER THAN NECESSARY. EVERYONE IS FIGHTING SOME KIND OF BATTLE.

"Don't tell God how big your storm is. Tell your storm how big your God is."- Unknown

“I am not jealous, McGrumpy. Just curious. Don't you want to know who would be able to melt the heart of ice that beats inside of our little assassin's chest?” From A Week Without Ziva, by mamapranayama

Karigan stared at the man she loved, delighting in the light in his eyes and how relaxed he appeared. He caught her staring, and a blush colored her cheeks. She cast her eyes about, and alighted on his tomb

“The artist did an amazing job,” she murmured, striding over to the stone. No longer distracted by Fastion, Karigan ran her fingers over the stone.

Zachary watched her fingers ghost over his sarcophagus’s features, and fought a shiver that broke over his own skin. Stepping up behind her, he caught her hand and brought it to his fleshly face, allowing her to feel his warmth. “No need to stroke my cheek in death, when I still live, beside you,” he murmured in her ear.--From Rider Betrayed, by LdyDarkStr. Check it out! It's a great Green Rider fic! http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3892447/4/

Find the tree who spurns the vine

Trying not to intertwine

Fighting often, wrestling more

Twisting hard till both are sore

There you find eternal strife

Leading to a mate for life.

~From The Great Tree of Avalon: Shadows on the Stars By T. A. Barron pg. 45

If you are obsessed with fanfiction copy this into your profile.

If you are a complete spelling/grammar/punctuation freak, put this in your profile.

A large percentage of writers don't know the difference between "your" and "you're". If you are one of the ones that do and want to deck 'em, put this in your profile.

If you've ever seen a movie or TV show so many times you can quote it word for word and you do at random times or when the moment seems to need a quote, put this in your profile. (also works for books)

If you think those stupid kids should just give the rabbit the freakin' Trix, copy this into your profile.
