Much as I obsess over fanfictions, I prefer to write my own inventions. Therefore, you're more likely to see me lurking the Twilight fanfic pages than typing up a story. Don't get me wrong; I love writing and expand my knowledge at every opportunity. I just don't dare compete with my favorite authors.

Books are my life. In case you didn't catch it up there, I am OBSESSED with Twilight (I love Edward:) ). Other favorites are Harry Potter, Stravaganza, anything Tamora Pierce, anything Scott Westerfeld, Bloody Jack, Inheritance "Cycle" (should not have made into a movie!), Vampire Academy, House of Night, Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, random vampire books, not-so-random but equally captivating fantasies, an occasional modern fiction...yeah. Pretty much anything on a bookshelf is fair game.

Me on Fanfic.net: I can't write fanfictions about characters already defined by an author. I feel like I can't capture their voice, their essence. So when I write fanfictions, I use the rules of the author's world, but I create some of my own, too. I create my own, unique characters to fiddle with as I please without worrying about being ooc. I make the character; it can't be out of character if I decide what is in-character! -cackle-
-->July 2009: It seems I haven't posted a new story here for quite a while...but I will respond quickly to any pms, and am an active beta reader.

I do a lot more reading than writing, though. I'm open to almost any fanfiction as long as I know the base storyline. I'm most interested in books, and I read a LOT, so chances are I've either read it or plan to.

I critique fanfics that I read and I'm not afraid to say when I think something can be improved on. I'm not saying it's bad; I'm saying that it can be even more amazing. I try to edit as if the story is going to be published (which, in essence, is what happens). I always review in a polite but honest way, and I'll thank you to do the same for me. Don't be afraid to say something is wrong; say "this is how to make it better"!
