I bid you a good day! My name is Alex (not really, but play along). I'm a Junior, and I've enjoyed reading since I was four years old. I believe no subject (save history, maybe) is as important as the ability to read. I have enjoyed writing, and honing such skills, since I was of the age of eleven years old. I have written numerous drabbles, one-shots, half-way completed stories before, but rarely did they get finished. I'd either lose motivation, no one would ever read them for me, or people found them boring, etc. So I decided, to hell with it, I'm writing and uploading my stories in ! I've been lurking around this site forever, reading numerous stories form numerous sources. If you want to know more about me, have a chit-chat, heart to heart, whatever, message me! That being said, I hope you enjoy my writing!

My current story (Heavy Is the Head That Wears the Crown) deals with a typical 'xyz years later' on the Percy Jackson universe. There's a lot I want to do with this, and it's probably my favorite story I've ever written.
