Hello!

I am an avid reader - I don't read stories, I devour them... I have been reading fanfiction on this site for well over ten years now.

Harry Potter is my main fandom - heck Harry Potter fanfiction was what got me addicted to this site way back when. However, I fluctuate between many different fandoms with most of them belonging in the Anime/Manga section.

I appreciate many different fandoms, troupes, clichés, writing styles, and story ideas. Usually I am quite willing to read any story if it has my favourite characters as the main characters. However, I have issues reading stories that are poorly written (text speak/lazy writing) or that make all the characters Mary-Sue in construct.

As of late I stick more to complete stories than works in progress, unless I know the author is active on this site and there is a high chance of it being completed. In my many years on this site, I have started reading more stories than I care to admit that have not been updated in a number of years. I dislike getting invested in a story and then just left. It leaves an unsettling sensation in my stomach.

When I first started on this site I was an active reviewer - I would literally review every chapter of every story I read. Nower-days I tend to only review a story if I have found it to be exceptionally amazing or constructive criticism is required for something that could be amazing.

Oh, not that anyone will have read this far, but I should mention that I am aware that I can not tell a story to save my life. I have hung up my proverbial 'writers hat' and have no intensions of ever donning it again.
