Follow AuthorLocation: I have seen deer and turkeys run through my backyard, and my neighbor used to own donkeys. a.k.a. Close to the middle of nowhere.
About me: I like history, nail polish, UNESCO world heritage sites, religions, superstition, printed books, the second generation of Pokemon, webcomics, iPod touches, and my Nintendo DS (c. 2007) This is my fourth year doing NaNoWriMo, and you can find my account under "website."
My favorite place to read is: Between the shelves at a library or a bookstore, even if people keep pushing past you to get to books. That or in my bed, even in the middle of summer.
I can't live without: An acess to information, either on a computer or in a book. Electricity is cool too.
If I could be any literary character, I would be: Valkyrie Cain, from the Skulduggery Pleasant series. I mean, the girl runs around with a talking skeleton that does magic, how cool is that?
Favorite authors: Eoin Colfer, Julie Anne Peters, Veronica Roth, Derek Landy, Margaret Atwood, etc.

Welcome Tributes and Viewers to the Annual Hunger Games! This is the chance for you to show off your fabulous writing skills, as well as become a part of something that will hopefully transform into an epic battle between Figment users around the world. As you begin to write your way through an arena filled with twists, turns, and fellow tributes (as well as a few nasty surprises of our own), your writing skills might just make the difference between seeing your tribute fall to the merciless clutches of death and seeing them emerge as victor. There is just one twist: your tribute, just as in The Hunger Games, must be selected randomly through a drawing. If you would like the chance to compete in the 70th Annual Hunger Games (bear in mind, this is BEFORE Katniss Everdeen) you will have to join or group!
Hope to see you there! For more information on how to enter please join our group- Writing Fire: Hunger Games for Writers And may your writing be ever in your favor...

Hi, Would you like to swap with me? My story Outlaw Love is waiting for you! As it's a heart-based contest story (Catherine contest), it needs, well, hearts. So please heart my story and I'll be so grateful to you. I love feedback. I will read, comment and/or heart any story you want in return. I always return swaps and give honest comments. Thank you!

Hello! :) I was wondering if you'd like to swap? I'll read/like/review any of your stories if you'll read/like Megan's Bridge! If you don't swap I'm sorry for bothering you! :)Thank you so much! If I've already sent this I apologize, it's hard to keep track!

Hi, I'm Sarah, and I was wondering if you would do a swap with me? If you'll read Blackout and heart/comment/review, I'll do the same to one of your stories. Thanks!

Hey, sorry to be one of the random people spamming your page begging for your heart. But, come on, PLEASE. If you like stories about a good ole' rebellion would you take a look at my story "Every Heart"? I would return the favor and so love you if you did!
