Author has written 52 stories for Castle. I love reading fanfics. Now I am loving writing my own. If you read mine, I hope you enjoy them! My motto is: Death is not the opposite of life. Death is the opposite of birth. Life is what you make of yourself between the two. I plan to make myself a writer. I love having this creative outlet to use to improve my story development and writing styles. Critique me if you want, good or bad. The only way for me to grow as a writer is to learn what works and what doesn't. I'm pretty easily inspired, but I'm always up for suggestions and requests. I love a challenge, and I pride myself on being able to write about virtually anything. If there is a story you'd like to see written, send me a message.
