Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. - Spock

Suffice to say, I am your average teenager. I love to read and write, although I seldom have time to do either. Some of my favorite authors are Jim Butcher, J.R. R. Tolkien, and Frank Herbert. Typically I read fantasy, sci-fi, or adventure/mystery novels, although I do enjoy the odd romance. I love the classics, sometimes I hate how Emily Bronte or Nathaniel Hawthorne writes in old English, but then I realize that the language adds to the story's beauty. I've learned to appreciate all the books my english teachers have made me read, kind of like how I've accepted the fact that math keeps my world from going insane, sad I know. I don't know what I want to do in the future, if I want to continue writing, or go to law school, or med school, or no school. But I do recognize that the future is creeping up on me moment by moment, day by day; which is why I write. Writing is my escape from my imperfect reality to a world where I have all the answers to someone else's problems. While it may seem I have a God complex, I don't, at least I don't think so. I just enjoy the hypothetical solutions to these hypothetical problems... Ok, so maybe I do have a God complex...

Anyways, some of my favorite books are ...
-Pride and Prejudice
-The Dresden Files
-Dune
-Sherlock Holmes
-The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

...and now's when I realize that most of those titles are the titles of series, not actual books, oops

And even though Wattpad has next to nothing to do with TV, my all time favorite television shows are...
-Doctor Who
-Torchwood
-Fringe
-Castle
-Bones

When everything you knew was a lie, when the life you were meant to have was stolen from you, when you have nothing to lose, how far will you go to retake your own?

@XxXTwixXxX Thanks so much for taking the time to read it, it means so much to me. Is "Daughter of Smoke and Bone" on Wattpad?

I loved your story, it was strangely tragic and hopeful at the same time. I hope you continue it, and best of luck with your contest. :)
