In short

  • I'm an open-minded person that loves to read and write :)

    I've always loved to write since I was young.  I've written a number of works but actually never finished them.  I also write fan fictions as well. I try to work in different genres and see what it's like.

    However, I tend to get very detailed with my works.  Let that be a warning to you ;p
