Author has written 33 stories for Twilight, Harry Potter, Hunger Games, Merlin, and Lord of the Rings. Occupation: Theatrical performer/budding musician/relentless writer/tiresome student/Bristish royalist Music makes up more of me than blood and bone, and I live every day like it's a song. Writing is so wonderful. You make anything happen with any character you like. With fanfiction, you can make anything happen with characters adored worldwide. You can be part of something big. And might I add, whilst I have your attention, how awfully wonderful it is to be British? All hail, Stephen Fry, Lord of all that is Pommy. Those clowns that I call friends just think I'm a ditsy blonde, spending all her money on Lord knows what and living with her head in the clouds. I've been writing fanfiction for a few years now - I started out with Potter and as the Twilight craze took over the world for a brief period, I fell in love with those characters too. Those are my favourite worlds to fall into, and I could stay there for a long time if I could. I simply adore Carlisle and Esme - despite their lack of flaws (that's a critisim, not a compliment) they are easy to work with, and so sweet. I won't hesitate to admite my love of them is helped along by the beautiful Elizabeth Reaser and the dashing Peter Facinelli in the films. There is a limit to the couples in the world of Twilight and I never really had much time for Bella, even less for her daughter. So with that fandom effectivly dried up, onto Potter. The beautiful couples are seemingly endless when it comes to Hogwarts, the Ministry and beyond; Harry/Ginny (book Ginny obviously, I have no time for Bonnie Wright), Hermione/Ron, Fred/Angelina, Percy/Penelope, Bill/Fleur, Cho/Cedric, an early-day Molly/Arthur, Tonks/Lupin and of course, one of my favourites of all time, Lucius and Narcissa. All hail the blondies. As you can probably tell, I'm a sucker for something canon. Team Edward or Team Jacob? It's all about Dumblefore's Army. If I lived in a District, I'd pray it were District 4 so I could spend all day dreaming about swimming free. Mind you, I wouldn't mind District 12, in the hope Peeta would find me. Here's my deviantArt profile where I've posted some fanart as well as my own photography - check it out; http://barnumonthebrain.deviantart.com/ Find me on tumblr: http://barnumonthebrain.tumblr.com/ Don't let reality stop you from living your fiction. Don't let anyone convince you that it's better to keep your feet planted on the ground than live with your head in the clouds. Reality is for people with no imagination. And never, ever, forget to dream. | |||||||||
