A little something I stole from [profile] nitw1t:

I know very little about some of the people on my friends list. Some people I know relatively well. I read your fic, or we have something else in common and we chat occasionally. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you.

But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she likes office supplies."

I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal.

In return, ask me anything you'd like to know about me and I'll give you an answer.


I wonder if someone will actually respond - apart from the two people who top my comment stats.:P

Oh yes, I am an avid reader. I have many favorite authors, including Mary Renault, Anne Rice, Jeanette Winterson, Sara Maitland, Amelie Nothomb... And lately I have discovered Tanith Lee. So I love dark/mysterious themes too, but most of all good, epic storytelling. As well as deep characterization and fresh, original outlooks on life, society and human nature. I love a book that makes me think, laugh and cry - in all the right places. And the same goes for fanfiction - I don't mind pure smut sometimes, but I'm waaay more gratified when it has depth.;)
