"Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing." -Ben Franklin
"I love writing. I love the swirl and swing of words as they tangle with human emotions."
My name is Katie and I am 33 years old (scary!). I am an elementary school library media specialist (which is a fancy term for a school librarian). I spend my day surrounded by books (and kids) and I absolutely love it. I've been writing fanfiction for more than fifteen years (also scary). It all started with an obsession with The X-Files and now it has morphed into something so much more. Some of my early work isn't that great, but I like to think that I get better with every story. I love writing (and reading) angsty dramas that usually include a damsel in distress (even though I'm a big feminist) so that's mostly what you'll find in my stories. I hope you have enjoyed some of my work and feel free to contact me if you have any questions and/or suggestions. I always love to hear what other people are thinking. Here are just a few more things about me:
Why I Write Fanfiction
- I write to relieve stress
- I write when I'm bored
- I write to procrastinate when I should be doing work
- I write because I think writers of TV shows and movies and authors of books don't always do what's best for my favorite characters
- I write a piece of myself into each and every character (even those that I did not create) so that I can do things as a character that I would never be able to do in real life
- And last, but not least, I write because it makes me happy
