The Person
I am thirty one, have been married for eleven years and have three children. Turkeymuse is 8, Bugmuse is 4, and Babymuse is a baby. Professionally I was a teacher, but I am now a proud full-time mother. I'm a Phoenix, AZ native and still live here because I'm dumb.
Some tidbits about me:
- popculture junkie
- hippie - I'm talking solar panels, garden, compost, chickens, natural births, nursing til my breasts fall off, babyweraing hippie.
- addictive personality
- chocolate lover (Mmm, Trader Joe's dark chocolate peanut butter cups!)
In 2009 an accquaintance mentioned fanfiction. I thought it was stupid, but she convinced me to give it a try. And I was right. It was stupid until I realized how to search for good fiction. I haven't read a book book since.
The Fanfiction Writer
I began writing fanfiction shortly after I was sucked into reading it. I was reading a lot, and I really enjoyed some of the stories I read but was really frustrated by some of the choices that the authors were making. I grew tired of the way that writers treated Jacob if they were Team Edward and tired of the way they treated Edward if they were Team Jacob. It made me angry. That's when I realized I was being foolish and should just write my own story so that I could treat/manipulate the characters any way I wanted. I haven't looked back since.
