About me:
I try to be an open book, but sometimes my pages get stuck together. ;)

No, look, living is a brave act. Writing is too. I'm no brilliant writer, but I enjoy the connection between reader and writer. I just enjoy people. That's why I'm here. And if you made the effort to come to my page and read this, don't hesitate to friend me. I'm new to WEbook and ready to soak up all I can from the people I encounter.
My claim to fame: My claim to fame is my ability to write excessively long sentences that are usually grammatically correct, though not neccessarily as impactful as they could be, but who cares because if you can pull it off you can pull it off and then you can pretend it is your claim to fame when really it was just what your highschool english teacher always found amazing.
