What about me? Alright I study economy since 2002.
That said I'm a real newbie at my university. But my dream is to become a writer or better that someday my work is going to be published. I know the chance are very small that this will ever happen. So I'll edit my novel forever and write FanFics about Books which are not mine. I love life do you think this is enough? I hope so.
Fandom: I'm almost certain you don't know me at all but let me tell you I stepped 2003 in the Harry Potter Fandom. Soonly I learned this Fandom is insane. Don't ask me why I even thought I could debate my ship at The Debate Thread over at FA or in The Love Thread over at CoS-Forum with this small English-skills like mine. But still I did so. Maybe I was stupid or just to brave how you like to say it.
You can even date it when I joined which board: Portkey: 21-March 03 CoS-Forum: March 28th, 2003 FictionAlley: 29th April, 2003.
Since May 2003 I did or do debate H/Hr. Before I joined Portkey I was already a H/Hr-shipper though I hated to be called like that. In my opinion were this narrow minded people and I never thought of myself as being narrow minded. Because I said and thought after GoF for both ships there exist enough evidence. I don't need to say since I read OotP this did change so my despite against being a H/Hr-shipper did change. In fact it wasn't before OotP that I joined or became a true member of the HMS Harmony. I'm, was and always will be a H/Hr-shipper by the hands of canon and not by fanon.
Writing: Since I could hold a pen, says since I was forced to hold it I wanted to do something with this skill being able to write something. I remember as I was 7 or 8 that I desperatly wanted to write things up which I did life through but I soonly lost interest because of lack in grammar and over all because at that age I had to fight through the hardest time of my life. It changed me till the very core of my being. As I turned 12 years old I decided to write a novel not to mention that every talent I once had vanished so I had to work it all back. I needed 5 years to even get the right plot. Finally with 17 I started to write no matter what.
Till today I rewrote this novel already twice and plan to rewrite it again but thats by side the point all skills and everything I'm able to write I learned by myself. My mother once told me she wanted a long time ago become a writer herself but never she was able to write a novel something I did manage through my stubborness. I believe that one day I can publish my work and probably life from it. This is my dream and something I seek for.
The reason why I touched the Harry Potter books and even read them in English is connected to my dream only. All I ever wanted was to find a publisher but after I earned a lot of: No's, I did decide I might need to translate it in English. Yeah, I suppose this was one of that insane ideas of mine. First thing I did read the most succesful books there exist says Harry Potter. Now I even writing FanFics in vain to get better English-skills so I can one day rewrite my work in English. In my head I have everything worked out but mind you I don't trust my head at all in that matter.
