I'm an avid reader, exploring all areas of literature. I also spend a good deal of time writing. Currently, I'm a 26 year-old, full time grad student majoring in German and Russian.
When I'm not doing school stuff, I spend a lot of time at home. I have three roommates, two male Europeans and an American girl. This is turning into an interesting living arrangement.
Basically, I'm an average person, living an average life, in an average American suburb. It means a life that seems fret with melodrama and oddities.
I live for music. I studied cello for 17 years, giving it up last year as my studies pulled me further into a life of chaos. When I graduate, I hope to resume the music. It speaks to something deep in me.
There isn't a particular genre of books that I like over another. My writings are just as scattered. I like to dabble in everything from historical fiction to erotica to murder mysteries and crime dramas. I have attempted some horror, but it always seems to fall flat. I just can't write anything truly horrifying or frightening. So we'll just leave that up to the masters.
