About Me
Recent grad school graduate w/ an educational background in medicine & law. I write to shut my brain up, to put it plainly :P When I'm in bed trying to sleep, words of poems/lyrics rattle around obnoxiously until I write them down to quiet my brain. Stories come to me when I'm driving or running, sometimes when dreaming. If I remember them, I write them down. I enjoy reviewing others' work, but I'm honest. If you want an honest review, I'm happy to oblige, but I don't review to fluff an ego ;)
Type of Writer
I'm generally an impulsive writer. Something pops into my brain and I write it down. Often at night.
Writing Style
I like writing to flow. Too many grammar/spelling mistakes detract me from what I'm reading. More realistic than fanciful.
Interests
I love books, music & movies. Running, hiking, biking. Scientist by nature & education w/ a natural born curiosity of all things. I'm compassionate & passionate, I enjoy those traits in others too. I also sew (fashion, bags, historical costuming).
