about me

I am a 28-year-old female and a proud Canadain. I just graduated with a BEd and plan to start teaching elementary in the next school year.

Writing has always been a hobby for me, something I did for myself and only shared with close friends. It wasn't until I discovered National Novel Writer's Month and the wonderful community there that I started to seriously start writing. It wasn't until I found this site that I seriously considered whether I wanted to publish one of my novels.

I am originally from fictionpress.com and I get seriously excited when I see some of my favourite authors from there uploading their stories here.

I eventually plan to upload my first novel "In the Shadow of Obsidian Empire", but it is in need of serious revision first.

I read mostly young adult and chick lit, with some romance thrown in. Unique clichés tend to be my guilty pleasure, but as long as something about it captures my attention, I will read it.

I am currently in the long drawn out process of moving, so at the moment I will not be doing much reading.

favourite books

"Speak" by Laurie Halse Anderson
"Hawksong" by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes
"Guitar Girl" by Sarra Manning
"Hey Nostradamus" by Douglas Coupland

I was very pleased to see that you had posted this on here after the hell on Fp. I absolutely love Billy and Pippa together and look forward to reading the story all over again. It is definitely worth the read. Definitely shelved. view book

This is not something that I would normally read. There are two reasons for this, the first is the idea of promise rings makes me think of strong Christian values and in books this can some across preachy. The second is the use of different points of views throughout the story. I find that a lot of ... view book

I stumbled across this here and I was super excited. I read the first version when you posted it on Fp, the one where Nyx had a different name, and it was on my favourites. This version is decidedly different and the characters seem much more mature and somehow more relateable. You get straight to t... view book

I just finished reading and I hope you plan to upload more chapters. It is a very good read. It reminds me of the Outlander series, although when I first read the title and the pitch I thought of the book "White Jade Tiger" by Julie Lawson. I found the beginning when Penny is in the present (2008) a... view book
