I took my wiki name from the protagonist of the greatest fantasy book in the world, The Assassins Of Tamurin by S.D. Towers. Love, lust, betrayal, conspiracy, curses, long lost twins, war, and sorcery- read it!
A line from Louisa May Alcott's Jo's Boys will tell you almost everything you need to know about me: "[a] certain studious damsel who cared more for books than finery."
Tropes that describe me:
- Blessed with Suck: Super empathy — it's a gift and a curse.
- Bookworm
- Brainy Brunette
- Brilliant, but Lazy
- Fatal Flaws: Sloth and inability to hold my tongue/temper.
- The Glorious War of Sisterly Rivalry
- Green Eyes
- Intelligence Equals Isolation
- Is That Cute Kid Yours?? (with my littlest sister)
- Loners Are Freaks
- Meganekko (Actually, I'm sure The Glasses Gotta Go, I just won't cooperate.)
- Nerd
- No Sparks (With a guy last year who, if you believe him, fell in Love at First Sight.)
- The Quiet One
- Ridiculous Procrastinator Up To Eleven
- To Be a Master: Got my Master's Degree in English because I don't want to be just a writer — I want to be the very best, like no one ever was.
I also have 3 younger siblings, including a younger brother who is a clone of every stoic anime Ensemble Dark Horse — an Aloof Big Brother and Mr. Fanservice with major daddy issues — and a blonde, blue-eyed, well-endowed, beautiful, glamorous, guy magnet of a younger sister. This has got to be great inspiration and help me achieve my dream of seeing my name on the spine of a book on the shelf in a bookstore someday.
