About Me

ily all <3



My greatest inspiration?

JK Rowling of course! Because of her awesome writing and bad-arsery (see how I used some British words in there). Just Youtube her interviews to see how absolutely awesome she is.

I loved, LOVED Les Misérables, and once I finished it, I realized, "This is what I want to do."  I plan on getting all of Hugo's books (but that's going to be costly, so it might have to wait a while; but I did get an over 100 year old book of Ninety-Three for under thirty bucks, soo...!!).

Everyone loves a real person. This means JKR and, in music, Adele (Florence + the Machine is pretty fantastic as well). No tricks, no gimmicks, no politicking - just talent and kindness. And they dominate their industries, proving that genuine people do succeed.

Favorite books?

HARRY POTTER (!!!) and Les Misérables (!!!) (my favorite series and favorite single novel).

 Catcher in the Rye--I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH. How did Salinger get us to relate to Holden so much?!?! And get us into his head? Incredible.

I really loved The Casual Vacancy as well. I mean the prose alone makes it amazing--but getting us so close to about a dozen MAIN characters?! I can't even say...I loved it. I have so much to say about it.... Here is my review of it. I honestly think she has HUGE skill as an adult author. She's incredible.

Between the World and Me was haunting and powerful. The New Jim Crow is the essential non-fiction book to read. I'll Give You the Sun is one of my favorite YA novels of all time (it's that good).


Random Stuff

1. I love to paint (oil paints, usually).
2. I love music. Maybe I can be a singing writer that paints, except that I don't really sing.
3. I own many Harry Potter wands (Dumbledore's wand is my favorite).
4. A few years ago, I started writing the MS which I've now set aside. I wrote in a (badly) coffee-stained journal with a quill.
5. I like to laugh.
6. I kind of love JK Rowling. Did I say that?

I tweet :D
