Hello :D 

I am Baalstrum. The indubitably awkward, goofy, "have those moments of pure genius", guy from nowhere. Growing up a military brat has it's benefits though. You get a nice perspective of the world, especially since I've gotten to travel a nice bit of it.
There are a number of things I enjoy. Sweets, movies, photography, drawing, graphic arts, colors (fascinated by color really), butterflies for some odd reason, sophisticated conversations when I'm not being silly or know what I'm talking about (which isn't often) xD

But what I really love, is books. I remember when I absolutely hated books, poems, camp-fire stories, you name it. I hated it. Now, for some strange, unexplainable reason I can't get enough of them.

*Huge fan of Fantasy/Sci-Fi* I could literally ogle with you over The Forgotten Realms and Warhammer universes. Not gonna lie.

And so, here we are. Really not much else to it. If you have something you'd like for me to read, don't be afraid to ask. I like to go through undiscovered gems, my reading list grows with them each day. Be warned, I give honest opinions. If I think your story needs work, I'll tell you and then give you my best opinion on what can be done to improve your work. Not because I'm any better or anything, but because constructive criticism (or criticism in general) is the first step to making something your readers will enjoy.

As for my story...well it's a work in progress (it's the only work in progress). And I just can't seem to write it the way I want to.
Which makes criticism a must for me (if you happen to come by and I haven't completely removed everything from it). So drop by, take a look, and tell me what you think.
