After graduating college, I ran away to Poland for a few months (as you can see from my story settings haha) it influenced me a lot. Now I'm back in Boston, working, writing and having a good time. 

Favorite book: Franny and Zooey by JD Salinger

"If you can do a half-assed job of anything, you're a one-eyed man in a kingdom of the blind." - Kurt Vonnegut

"I hate writing, I love having written." - Dorothy Parker

Works: 

Fire Flower (working title) is set up to be the longest piece I've written. It has its base in Slavic (specifically Polish) folklore and mythology.  I'm just getting it off the ground, but I have a good idea of some cool places to go with it. Stick with me!

I also have a fictionpress account under the same username. So if any of my stuff appears there, no need to be alarmed. It's just me, not a dirty nasty plagiarizer.

@Prisim I am infinitely proud! Just remember, there's a difference been quitting and stopping for mental survival. I need to remove it from Hulu, it always popping up when I don't want to watch it.

Be proud of me. I officially deleted Glee from my DVR. It took Britney getting into MIT to finally bring me to do it, but I'm done.

@emilita Oh yay, new chapter! I'll have to check it out :)

There aren't too many direct spoilers in the NaNo story (especially since it's unfinished). It's more about Jagoda and her early years. So it spoils a bit about the magic system in general/tells you more about who Jaga started out as. 

So it's up to you really. Also, it probably won't be continued until I finish all or most of fire flower.

@aprocne Goodie goodie! I just rephrased some stuff I wrote a while ago and finally got to a new chapter on Space Academy!

I've been meaning to ask you for ages about your NANO story. I like your writing but I enjoy Fire Flower too much to get spoilers. Should I go ahead and read anyways?

@emilita Hey! Thanks! I've got about a third written out (I think, possibly more depending on where I end the chapter). Hopefully I'll get some writing time in tonight!! (thanks for the nudge :) )

hey! I hope the new chapter is coming along already :) I'm an impatient fan, especially in light of recent chapters, big things surely lie ahead for Magda! Happy writting

I don't want to toot my own horn, but Chicago -is- pretty boss.  Then again, you've been pretty into country music, so Nashville might appeal to you as well.

@emilita :) I'm glad you liked it! Jaga is probably the character I have the most fun writing at this point. She's always got something to say.
