Follow AuthorLocation: An overpopulated town where the expectations are far too high.
About me: I'm 17 years old, a novelist, a "guardigan" (meaning someone in color guard), a band geek, and a techie. I listen to music incessantly. I'm passionate about things I love and things I hate; I love to argue my opinions, but I won't try to shove them down your throat--which is why I hate politics. I'm apparently a "sassy writing monster machine." Whatever that means... **And I am not opposed to swaps as long as you read first.**
My favorite place to read is: On my Kindle with its TARDIS skin and fancy black leather case.
I can't live without: Music. Hot tea. Band/Guard/Theatre. My Kindle. WriteOrDie.
If I could be any literary character, I would be: I wouldn't. The characters I like all have really tragic lives and beautifully developed emotional complexes. I love to study them as humans, but I would never wish to be so vulnerable.
Favorite authors: Lauren Oliver, Markus Zusak, Mark Z. Danielewzki & Jay Asher
Favorite books: Before I Fall, Thirteen Reasons Why, House of Leaves, The Book Thief
Favorite movies: Les Miserables
Favorite TV shows: Fringe, Haven, Dollhouse, Caprica

Hello! I'm in the Kidnapped Contest hoping to goodness that I can get enough hearts to make it into the top ten. If you wouldn't mind to terribly to give a girl a hand, will you please take a look at my story "Frozen" please? It will only take a few measly minutes of your time and I am more than willing to make it a swap! Thank you! ~~H.C.~~

Hi, so I'm going to enter the heart-based contest, What if?. If you could heart my entry Roses Are Red and So is Blood, that would be great. I would be more than happy to return the favor. Thanks!

Hello,
so I haven't ever won anything in my life... (literally) and it would mean the world to me if you would please check out my short story The Roommate. I've entered it into a contest and there are several stages to go through. The first being the judges have to like it, but the second is it has to have the most hearts...

I know a lot of people don't do swaps on here but if so could I ask for a free read? I really need this. I have been contemplating quitting writing and if I win this it'll help me raise my hopes for being published and I won't have to give up on my dream.
If you find it good enough for a heart or even a follow I will do the same in turn. Thank you and I apologize if you either don't do swaps or if this is a repeat.

Thanks so much!

Hello there! I just wrote a poem called Softly as it Goes; which is under five minutes. If you could read it, I will read something of yours in return.
If not, that would be okay, and you can just delete this message. Thanks.
