about me

I live in the North East of England, don't go out much and spend most of my time reading and writing. I write stories about life and death and love and hate.

I try to comment on everything I read and always read the work of people who comment upon mine. If you leave me a comment and I haven't sent one back within a few days then please send me a reminder. Also, if you send me a friend request and I don't accept, please don't take it personally; it's simply to keep my newsfeed free.

IMPORTANT: As great a site as Authonomy is, it's unfortunately very detrimental to the amount of time I spend actually writing. I'm working on something new right now and so will be on a temporary hiatus from the site, so if I don't get back to you, return reads, backings etc, that's why.
