~ I am my own heaven and hell!
J.C.F. von Schiller
I’m English; I’m a a former English Literature student; and I’m shy. I love reading, writing, drawing, playing the piano, photography … see my other interests for more. I’m possibly too affectionate. I have low self-esteem. My favourite season is Autumn, although I’m a huge fan of Christmas too.
I'm not allowed pets IRL, so instead I have virtual dragons because I am a nerd.

~ Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.
William Wordsworth
I write because it’s what I love. There’s something magical about the way words spark off against each other in a description. I tend to over-describe things as a result of my love for words.
At some point in the future, I am determined to get my work-in-progress fantasy novel published. It’s still unfinished, and when it eventually is finished it will need a huge rewrite, so publication isn’t going to happen any time soon. However, one day it will.
I also write fanfiction, in various fandoms. All my previous fanfiction can be found in my memories, along with some icons and fanart. Any comics I draw are posted to hp_widelines. I made my own header for my LJ, but credit for the image has to go to awakencordy.
Since 2004, I’ve done NaNoWriMo every November. My profile is here. Although in 2004 I lost spectacularly while trying to write 50K of bad Harry Potter fanfiction, I've managed to win every year since!

I’m not hugely active in fandom. I’d like to be more active – mostly just by writing and reading more fanfiction, because it’s fun – but sadly, I’m not. This might be because I have so many fandoms, including:

Good Omens
-- "Many people, meeting Aziraphale for the first time, formed three impressions: that he was English, that he was intelligent, and that he was gayer than a tree full of monkeys on nitrous oxide."
Merlin
-- "Don't be such a girl, Merlin!"
Temeraire
"Oh, you mean whores." ~ Temeraire
Star Trek (Reboot)
"I like this ship! You know, it's exciting!" ~ Scotty
Harry Potter
-- "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good."
Pirates of the Caribbean
-- "Wherever we want to go, we'll go. That's what a ship is, you know. It's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship needs but what a ship is ... what the Black Pearl really is ... is freedom." ~ Captain Jack Sparrow
Doctor Who
-- "You survive. Oh, you might have spent a million years evolving into clouds of gas and another million as downloads, but you always revert to the same basic shape. The fundamental human. End of the universe and here you are. Indomitable, that's the word. Indomitable!" ~ The Doctor, Utopia
Heroes
-- "Save the cheerleader, save the world."
Discworld
-- "‘Kiddo? I’ll have you know the blood of pharaohs runs in my veins!’
The other boy looked at him unabashed, with his head on one side and a faint smile on his face.
‘Would you like it to stay there?’ he said." ~ Pyramids
