About Myself:
Besides writing, I'm also into a variety of things from gaming to anime. I love talking with people, and meeting new people. University has been a pain lately but I am slowly getting back into the groove.

First off, I love the doggie pictures you have on your Tumblr! Awwwww ! And the wolf ones are cool, too-wolves are beautiful creatures. I have a friend who loves them as well. I want to pet the one in your gif there.
Second, I've read/am reading a couple stories on your Fanfiction page there, but it clearly looks like I've got a lot more to check out! Same with the FictionPress site (and I should look into joining that site as well). Do you prefer writing fanfiction or original fiction more? Is there a particular genre you like writing, or one you want to try writing in more often?

I used to prefer writing fanfiction, but lately I'm more into original stuff. I'm not too sure what genre I typically write to be honest, but I know I want to try branching on into fantasy.

I'm the same way with genres-I just write whatever strikes me, it's hard to really pin it down . I have been increasingly interested in mystery/suspense, though...
But fantasy is fun! And certainly quite popular, if the sales at where I work are anything to go by. I admire people who can really get into the fantasy world like that-so much creativity and imagination in the worlds they can create. Is there a certain kind of fantasy you're interested in (fairy tales, or sci-fi worlds, or whatnot), or is the whole genre appealing? And do you want to write for a living, or is it just a fun hobby?

I'd love to be able to write for a living, however, I'm not sure my skills will ever get to that level. But it will always remain a fun hobby.
I love fantasy as a whole. I'm going through a huge sci-fi phase though. I'm not sure I could ever write that genre.

I know that feeling. In those moments I just remind myself that if Snooki can get a book published, I sure as hell have a shot . I think your writing's quite good . But having it as a hobby can be nice, too. Much less pressure that way, at least.
Sci-fi looks incredibly tough. It's fascinating to read, but yeah, so many technical terms and scientific things to keep in mind. But it is a cool genre. Any particular favorite sci-fi authors/stories?
