I'm new to DW but I'm an old school LJ girl, so hopefully I don't mess this up too much.

Name: Tori

Age: 30

Location: Seattle, WA

About Me: I'm an aspiring author (I bet most people here are, yeah?) I love cheese, tea, I watch far too much television, and I have two cats. I'm a huge nerd.

About My Journal: I just started it but I suspect it will be more about my writing (word counts, prompt challenges, memes) than personal stuff, although I'm an open book and I can never help rambling about my personal life so I'm sure that will be there too, with a smattering of fangirling over TV/books/etc.

What I Write: Mostly YA Urban Fantasy, although I'm always trying new things. The bulk of my work is YA though.

What I Don't Write: Well, I don't want to say I'll never write it, but I don't usually write contemporary fiction. Reality is all right but I love magic, demons, vampires, other worlds, and super powers.

What I Read: I'll give anything a shot. I tend to love fast-paced UF like October Daye and Harry Dresden. I'm usually partial sarcastic guys, unique voices, and again, magic and fantastic elements. But I read far more contemporary than I write.

What I Don't Read: I'll read paranormal romance and I like things with romantic elements, but I have little interest in straight-up romance. Nothing against it, it's just not my cup of tea. I also don't usually love historical fiction, especially WWI&WWII era stuff.

Could I Edit Someone Else's Work: I can beta! I'm happy to beta read things for people. I'm not so awesome at line-editing but I'm happy to do larger-scale editing suggestions and such. :)

I can understand what you mean about fantasy. Though I write a number of realistic stories, I'm getting deeper into the fantasy realm haha.

I post a lot about my writing in my journal, though the stories and other stuff are in a different number of journals. I talk about my personal life and basically anything that's on my mind at any given moment. My journal is kinda of like a therapy tool for me XD.

I'd like to friend you if that's okay!

Hi there! I'm in Seattle, too. Urban fantasy is by deepest love, I have a fondness for vampire fiction, and I've started writing mystery. Add?

Have to admit that I do love YA fantasy books...
Friends?
