PLEASE NOTE: Weekly updates are postponed during exam season. They'll resume sometime in June, once things at school calm down. I might post the odd chapter or two between then and now, but I can't promise anything. Sorry :(

Hello! I'm Leigh (and yes, that's pronounced "lee" not "lay"). I haven't changed my About Me in a ridiculous amount of time, so here I go with an attempt at a new one.

Basically, I'm a five-foot-eight, seventeen-year-old mess of infinite weirdness who lives a secret life on the internet where I write books (if you know me personally and happen to be reading this, congratulations on discovering my ultimate secret. Please don't spread it around). I'm currently in sixth form studying for my A-levels, and I balance the rest of my time reading an obscene amount of books, as well as occasionally writing my own. If there are a few things about me you need to be aware of, they're the following: my love-turned-downright-obsession for all things Taylor Swift; my arguable status as world's biggest perfectionist, and the fact that I'm probably one the least creative writers ever to exist (I'm forever wishing I could be one of those people with ideas ready to explode out of their head). There's probably a lot more to me than that, but I'm sure you don't want to venture that far into my mind.

But if the above wasn't enough information, or you're got a burning question you're dying to ask, you can ask me anything here:
http://ask.fm/leighonwattpad

Just to let you know, I don't take reading requests. I'm currently in the middle of my AS exams and barely have time for my own writing, let alone reading Wattpad books. Please don't ask me to read your story as the message will be deleted. Don't take it personally.

@IAmUndefined Haha thank you! Yes, I saw your story in Mariam's library and she always has really good books in her reading list so I added it. I've read like one chapter so far and it's really good! Can't wait to read more when school is less crazy

I haven't used it in months, though. I'll start blogging again once my exams are over (two weeks time eep) or possibly start a new one.
