Hi all! I'm Railway Station, aka Rina Stell.

WHAT RULES MY LIFE?

Love reading. Looooove writing. Love manga/anime. Love life. ...yeah. :D My biggest loves are Sailor Moon, Skip Beat!, xxxHOLiC, and Code Geass. I read way too many mangas/anime series to count. I do have a lot of old unfinished fics from various genres in my folders, which I may work on and post from time to time. Depending on level of procrastination from university workload, and accessibility of other internet distractions. I also LOVE A Fine Frenzy music.

I live a little island at the bottom of the world called New Zealand.

I am absolutely obsessively addicted to the internet. I can clock some scary hours in terms of time spent here...

WHY THE NAME (RAILWAY STATION)?

The pen name "Railway Station" came about because I was sick of growing out of names like "Shimmering Angel" or "Dreaming Angels, Inc" (once-upon-a-time joint name for me and my friends) and god knows what else I came up with -and may otherwise STILL come up with- in my teenagey years. Actually, I remember at the time, a NaNo-friend was telling me how his novel (a beautifully written story I did read) originated from an image/vision of a girl in a train station. I don't recall his exact words, but this image has stayed with me since.

The idea of a train station has always fascinated me, because it is very much a in-between place (Sort of like how JK Rowling described it in HP7), and it's also a setting that has so much potential because various people (and stories) 'coincidentally' gather and never really know each other's reasons for being there. And that's what this very page has become for me... a "place" for stories. So I guess you could say "Railway Station" is more like the collection of my stories rather than a name for me. So while I don't mind being called 'Railway Station', at the same time, I don't actually think of it as my name- It's more like a special place, or writing-space, or something like that. Which is why I'm also going by the name Rina Stell (for the simple reason that it has the same initials, 'RS').

Well, I suppose it's better than being called by some other crazy noun, like Refrigerator. Actually, about that...
