I'm a college student now, though I started Persephone back in highschool. (The beginning is written in a rather juvenille, simplistic style, but I only editted a little. I move on.) I'm currently studying Physics, Philosophy, English and Theater (with music and dance). When I go to used book stores I look for Victorian novels, primarily Austen, and science fiction, primarily Star Wars. I love to ride horses, act and sing. I play french horn, mostly ill, but improving now.
I love to write-- in an ideal world I'll write philosophical science fiction while somehow making money. Because my painfully type A personality requires constant improvement, I love to give and get constructive criticism. You've been warned.

Easter Eggs for Persephone:
I’m fascinated by words and word play, especially how the exact same words can mean something completely different in another context, or how a phrase can be slightly bent. And I love making obnoxious references. So I’ve dropped little phrases throughout. Some of you have found bits from Pirates and Disney’s Beauty and the Beast. Can anyone find the others?
