Hello ~ my name is Luce and if you're visiting my profile page, thank you! I haven't written any stories, obviously, but I love to read. Check out my favorites section for good recommendations. The majority are very good and I would recommend to anyone, but if you would like additional recommendations, feel free to contact me. A lot of my favorites still aren't listed, because I have them as alerts instead, and I haven't taken the time to move them over to my favorites section. I have a combination of hetero and slash stories, as well as stories with no pairing, favorited.

Ninety-five percent of the kids out there are unconcerned by the dismal state of their education, or the fact that their fanfiction is raping the English language. If you're part of the five percent of fanfiction writers/readers who do care about such things, cut and paste this, and then leave reviews for those poor souls who know not what they do.
