My name is Gabbi. I'm 23 years old. I recently lived in Oceanside, CA in the recent past and have been back in IL- bouncing back and forth between Chicago and my hometown of Moline. (However, I do plan on moving back to southern California as soon as possible!) I'm very eclectic and enjoy many things (i.e.: history, languages, music, shakespeare, art, reading, writing, songwriting, the dramatic arts and cinematography, etc.) Music is my weapon, I love to songwrite and sing, and I play electric guitar. I used to play the violin, but put it down several years ago. I don't know where I'd be without music today. Currently, I am in a new band locally, but also continuing to work on my own material. I will also be starting a YouTube channel in the near future. It sound like I'm tooting my own horn, but I promise that I'm not- I tend to be good at and love all of the arts, or many anyway. Video capturing and editing, photography, web and graphic design and programming, music (of course!,) painting, weaving, sketching, and sometimes customizing clothing for fun too, for myself or others. I love to write and create. As far as Twilight goes, I'm Team WolfPack, but I'm a HUGE fan of The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare, The Hunger Games, and- like many of my generation- grew up with a deep love of Harry Potter as well. As well as reading many other genres of fiction and a TON of nonfiction. That's rght, I'm a proud nerd! Haha. I'm very outgoing and I strongly believe in being true to who you are, as well as to what you want and choose to write. Cheers to all of the writers!I have been on a long hiatus from writing fanfiction, albeit still somewhat of an active reader, but, as they say... I'm back, baby! :)

My Current Stories:

Twilight: "Trust Without Warning" (Jared Cameron/Bella Swan) - Status: Continuing

Embry/Rosalie fic to come in the future. Also possibly a Hunger Games fanfic- ideas are brewing!

The Mortal Instruments: JACE WAYLAND/CLARY FRAY FIC "Make Me Believe It" IN THE WORKS! COMING SOON! (I hope to have the first chapter up by mid June, if not before.)

-- I'm telling you right this very second, that if you have not read Cassandra Clare's masterpieces, run out and get them. Read and enjoy- her stories will draw you in!

(The Mortal Instruments series: Book 1: "City Of Bones," Book 2: "City Of Ashes," Book 3: "City Of Glass," Book 4: "City Of Fallen Angels" and Book 5: "City Of Lost Souls," is to be released on May 8th, 2012! Book 6: "City Of Heavenly Fire" set to be released in May 2014 -- While you're at it, be sure to take a look at her other series Infernal Devices and, if you do take on reading TMI, and I strongly suggest that you do if you haven't. make sure that you read Book 1 of ID: "Clockwork Angel" before beginning Book 4 of TMI, and her other series.)
