Author has written 11 stories for Shakespeare, Fairy Tales, and To Kill a Mockingbird.

About me:

I am in college as an Electrical Engineering and Computer Science double major. I love computers and coding and circuits and building things. Funny how I ended up on FanFiction, huh?

I don't sit still well. I like to be busy, to have lots of things to puzzle and think about. I love to cook random things that I invent because recipes are lame and fresh bread is magical. I love to act and direct Shakespeare, because the hush that falls over a crowd during the monologues is beautiful. I love to run for miles, hike and bike until I'm covered in mud. I love to draw and write, though I've got a lot of room to improve. I love to visit farmers' markets, try new restaurants, ballroom dance, tell bed time stories, play pretend, wear pretty dresses, swing dance, host tea parties, organize people, go on adventures, and ask questions until I have to start figuring out the answers myself. I love to be inspired and to inspire other people. I love to be ridiculous. I love to laugh. I love being a sarcastic optimist. I love trying new things. I'd love to tell you that I am a mature young adult, but that might be a lie.

Personal Philosophies:

Write, read, imagine. Wear something funny, do something strange, tell a joke, give a helping hand, change the way someone thinks, and never give up innocence. Make sure that you are remembered when you walk off, even if just for a few minutes.

Everything can be understood. Everything can be broken down into whys and hows, and once you understand it, then you can use it!
