Hey everyone! If you hadn't guessed it already, my name is Lauren. I am 16 years old and I live in Washington state. I am a very busy person. I am in all AP classes, playing tennis, participating in clubs and debating. I also volunteer a lot and am always hanging out with friends. Surprisingly, none of them know how much I love fanfiction! The first anime I found was Tenchi Muyo when I was about 9. I absolutely fell in love with it. My cousin and I used to tune in nightly to it and then re-enact the episode right afterwards. I was Ryoko, if you care to know. From that spurned my interest in other anime such as Inuyasha and Naruto. Because the shows are always on at insane times, I had to turn to fanfiction to get my fill of them. I have found some amazing stories here and am happy to be a part of something that cultivates readers and writers from all around the globe. While I have only read so far, I am planning on doing a lot of writing over the summer. I have so many storylines flying around in my head and it will be a relief to get them down on paper, or the internet at least!

I guess I'll give you the run down on my favorite genres and pairs.

1. Naruto: Sakura/Kiba Sakura/Kakashi Sakura/Gaara

2. Inuyasha: Kagome/Inuyasha Kagome/Sesshomaru Rin/Sesshomaru

3. Harry Potter: Hermione/Draco Hermione/Snape Hermione/Blaise Hermione/Ron/Harry Ginny/Draco Pansy/Draco

Of course there are other categories that I read from, but these three are my favorite. They have the most diverse and well written stories I have come across so far.

The most important thing for you to know is that I have a very overactive imagination. While that may seem like a good thing for a writer, it does get difficult at times because its hard to know which ideas to keep and which ones to weed out. I love literature and linguistics and my actually try writing in some others languages, like spanish.

I love hearing people's critiques or even just their opinions. I try to be constructive since I recognize that fanfiction is not only meant to be used to put unique stories out there, but to grow as a writer as well. I hope you can recognize this too, please keep this in mind whenever you review.

In the end though, I just really hope you enjoy my stories!
