Intro post, of sorts, and other things.

First of all, hullo to [livejournal.com profile] unsafebet , [livejournal.com profile] rozarinnn , [livejournal.com profile] kaiyashe , [livejournal.com profile] misdre , [livejournal.com profile] isakana , [livejournal.com profile] yingyang_700 , [livejournal.com profile] ecchipiro , [livejournal.com profile] ishilde , [livejournal.com profile] arafs , and [livejournal.com profile] lifesareverie (oh my God I am such a memewhore). I'd like to invite any of you (except rozarinnn, who already has <3) to add me on messenger or Twitter if you like (info here), I'm always after new people to talk to~

On to the introductions... My name is Fiona and I'm a 21 year old English university graduate with a degree in English literature and creative writing (grade pending...). As detailed in my post on the friending meme my fandoms are vocaloids, Sherlock Holmes, internet sites (Facebook, Google, Twitter.. I would be happy to explain this..) the Bible, The Vampire Chronicles, Harry Potter Founders/Marauders, anything by David Eddings, H.P. Lovecraft, and Tolkien. I also like Family Guy, Ghost in the Shell, Rebirth (Korean manhwa), Fushigi Yuugi, With the Light, Fallout 3, Assassin's Creed 2, Bayonetta, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Studio Ghibli (especially Howl's Moving Castle) and The Dragonriders of Pern.

I read and write a lot. I mostly write Hetalia usxuk fanfics but I've been looking into other pairings/characters. Suggestions are always welcome!

Um, I like gardening, and being outdoors in general, but I don't like crowds, or getting up early so I don't get the chance to go out that much as I don't drive. I have a tendency to pick up hobbies then drop them (like playing the guitar, and learning braille, both of which I want to start up again...). I also do a lot of amateur (very amateur) photography which you can look at on my deviantART.

I spend a lot of time asleep. I like sleep. When I'm not asleep I'm on the internet, so prompt replies to comments are almost always guaranteed.

... ^_^;

And now, onto other things.

I seem to have given myself a lot of work to do over the summer, mostly fic-related. I still need to finish my sequel to At The End of All Things and then I have plans to write a series of meetings between Arthur and Horatio Nelson. Thanks to a comment in the friending meme I also want to do the same with Tino and Simo Häyhä (famous Finnish sniper). I also have an AU usxuk fic planned and several fics still unfinished (GAH).

In addition to that, I have plans to write a re-spin of the traditional Cinderella story, but with the gender roles reversed (beautiful princess and servant boy). I think this is going to require some work as there's going to be a lot of things I need to change, and I want to bring in more elements from pre-Perrault versions of the story.

Ho hum.

For anyone wondering about the 'internet sites' thing, this is the reasoning;

I totally ship Facebook/Google. Ohyes. =3

Omg Twitter you are so cute (even if you never shut up. Ever)
It probably says a lot on my opinion about Facebook that I think he doesn't look 'right' at all here xD (though he and Myspace should be rivals and have epic bitchfights)(only not, because then I'd be compusled to ship them)

Compulsed, compusled, same diff *kicks dyslexia in the tender parts, steals its wallet and runs away*


Never mind that the word 'compulsed' apprently doesn't exist, either. Just swap it with 'feel obligated to' up there. I just can't win, can I?

Perhaps you were looking for 'compelled'?

I totally was, how did you know. *cough cough*
