Author has written 26 stories for Suite Life series, iCarly, and Victorious. My name is Lindsay, and I'm crazy about writing to say the least :P I found Fanfiction.net in 2008 after Fanlib.com closed down (sniff sniff). But since joining Fanfiction, I have become both an avid reader of other author's literature and a budding author myself. I love writing, it's my passion. As cliche as this sounds, I want to be a professional writer someday. Writing's one of the few things that genuinely makes me happy in my life. For me, writing is about finding that silver lining in a story. Occasionally, I will write stories with mature and serious content when I'm trying to make a moral/social/political point. But most of the time, I like to write stories that are entertaining and leave the reader feeling good and happy afterwards. That's what reading and writing does for me, so I like to do the same for others when they read my stories :) I think of myself as being quite complex in my various tastes and interests. I'm kind've an old soul, but still extremely young at heart all at once. I love to laugh; I've found time and time again that laughter can cure anything from a bad grade to a broken heart. I try not to take myself too seriously, yet I'm still extremely pensive. Besides reading, writing and watching way too much TV for my own good, I love to cook, sleep and travel. I love meeting new people and learning new things. I like to think of myself as being an exotic and international kind of gal. As you may have already noticed, I'm kind of a quote whore :P I love quotes that are inspiring, thought-provoking or just downright amusing. I'm constantly tweeting quotes and putting them up on Facebook. The quotes of others, no matter how intelligent or colloquial, makes me feel connected and grounded in a sense. To all the authors out there, best of luck with your writing. Don't ever tire of improving your technique and skill, there's always loads to learn from others. Likes: macaroni & cheese, fried chicken, long walks on the beach (seriously), Coldplay, Coca Cola, my siblings, travelling, reading, watching TV shows and films (repeatedly sometimes), cheesecake, Asian cuisine, long and relaxing baths, laughing, sleeping, cooking, playing on my keyboard, Indian food, staying in fancy hotels, road trips, Christmas, snow, songs with acoustic guitars and pianos, Mariah Carey, jeans, dogs, sneakers, babies, K-pop (it's seriously catchy), Denzel Washington, Dustin Hoffman, stand-up comedy, mocking people (applies to people I love and hate), a beautiful sunrise, my iPod, candy, Lindt chocolate, my Kindle, writing (obviously), the rain, winter, studio lofts, double-storey houses, chocolate chip cookies (the moist kind), driving (it's so relaxing for me), dub steps (makes me wanna dance every time), my electric blanket (it's a life-saver in winter), people with gorgeous hair (I'm a professed hair whore) Dislikes:obnoxious people, people who don't filter when they say stupid sh$@ in public, obnoxious people at sporting events, people who pick fights simply because they can, most reality shows (most of them are scripted anyway to make the cast more interesting), cruelty to animals, asinine guys hitting on me with stupid pick-up-lines and expecting me to swoon, people who can't spell, musicians who become famous but have very little talent and even less of a likeability factor, long queues in the express lane at the supermarket, people who walk slowly in malls and still stop to talk in front of me, people who talk during movies at the cinema, people who can't steer their trolleys in a shopping mall, crying kids on aeroplanes, Crocs (they're just wrong on so many levels), cyber-bullies (they don't have muscles or any street cred whatsoever), taxi drivers, porcelain dolls (sorry, but they're just creepy), racist people, customer services (they're really not helpful), people who drive like lunatics on the road (it's dangerous and just plain stupid), motorcyclists (they're just accidents waiting to happen), regular cyclists (for pretty much the same reason as motorcyclists) anyone making me do work before I've had breakfast (you seriously should not poke the bear on an empty stomach), unreasonable people who expect you to be reasonable (logically, this doesn't make sense to me) Favourite Quotes: 1) "My candle burns at both ends, it will not last the night. But ah my foes and of my friends, it gives a lovely light." (Roald Dahl) 2) "Love may do much, but money more." (French proverb) 3) "So throughout life, our worst weaknesses and meanness are usually committed for the sake of the people whom we most despise." (Charles Dickens) 4) "A true friend stabs you in the front." (Oscar Wilde) 5) "Evil is not something superhuman, it's something less than human. A criminal is someone who wants to be important, but who will never be important, because he will always be less than a man." (Agatha Christie) 6) "Without the assistance of the Divine Being who ever attended me, I cannot succeed. With that assistance, I cannot fail." (Abraham Lincoln) 7) "The road to hell is paved with good intentions." (Samuel Johnson) 8) "It matters not how strait the gate, how charged with punishments the scroll. I am the master of my fate, the captain of my soul." (William Ernest Henley) 9) "Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured." (Mark Twain) 10) "You've got to learn to live with what you can't rise above." (Bruce Springsteen) 11) “All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.” (Anatole France) 12) “Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.” (Victor Hugo) 13) “There's too much tendency to attribute to God the evils that man does of his own free will.” (Agatha Christie) 14) Whatever you're going through in your life, don't ever give up.” (Mariah Carey) 15) Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds.” (William Shakespeare) 16) “And you can try to manipulate a situation to get a reaction out of someone, but messing with a person's mind is always risky and unpredictable - it doesn't have the same clean precision of an algebra equation. There are always too many variables and unknown factors at work.” (A quote from ‘Fearless’, a Cam FF story by SparkleHorse) 17) "In a world where everyone's guilty, the only crime is getting caught." (A quote from "Panopticon", a Seddie FF friendship fic by The Earl of Sandwich) 18) "An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind."(Gandhi) 19) "There is no sincerer love than the love of food." (George Bernard Shaw) 20) "In the midst of death, we are in life. Murder, I have noticed, is a great matchmaker." (Agatha Christie) 21) "A little learning is a dangerous thing. But a lot of ignorance is just as bad." (Bob Edwards) 22) "Not a shred of evidence exists in favour of the idea that life is serious." (Brendan Gill) Favourite Books/Series 1) Harry Potter series (toss up between 'Chamber of Secrets' or 'Goblet Of Fire' for favourite book) 2) Ken Follet – A Dangerous Fortune 3) Agatha Christie – And Then There Were None (awesome prequel to a brilliant idea for a horror film) 5) Margaret Headley - A Leaf in the Wind 6) Michelle Margorian – Goodnight Mr. Tom 7) Gabrielle Garcia Marquez – One Hundred Years of Solitude 8) George Orwell – 1984 (damn right creepy) 9) Sheila Lavelle – My Best Fiend 10) Sir Arthur Conan Doyle - Hound of the Baskervilles (my favourite Sherlock Holmes adventure) 11) C.S. Lewis - The Chronicles Of Narnia ('The Horse And His Boy' is my favourite book in the series) 12) Bram Stoker - Dracula 13) Agatha Christie - The Pale Horse 14) Gordon Korman - The Slapshot Series (big fan of 'Cup Crazy') My 'Older Man' Fantasy List (basically a list of older male celebrities that make me swoon): 1) Denzel Washington (he tops every other list of favourites in my books) 2) Peter Gallagher 3) Robert Downey Jr. 4) Richard Gere (so what if his middle name is 'Tiffany'?) 5) Antonio Banderas (Mask of Zorro, anyone?) 6) Tom Selleck (it's his moustache) 7) Pierce Brosnan (hello? James Bond!) 8) Terence Howard 9) Matthew Settle (plays' Rufus Humphrey' in 'Gossip Girl') 10) Marlon Brando (from 'A Streetcar Named Desire' days, yum) 11) Andy Garcia 12) Chris Noth (Mr. Big indeed...) 13) Jon Bon Jovi (it's like he never aged!)
