Author has written 9 stories for Twilight, and Parodies and Spoofs. Hi! My name is Laura...but my "online persona" is Zayide. A character that I have used for RPG since very young [16]. I am 32, married twice...*forehead smack* to the same man, and a mother of 2 [10 yr old girl- head over geals over Jacob- and a 1 1/2 yr old boy - who keeps me on my toes-]. I was raised in Puerto Rico after the age of 4 1/2 till I was 14, we moved and lived in Central Florida [were my immediate family still resides, moved around the US for a bit and after my second marriage hubby and I decided to try our luck in Ohio [were I am now stuck] but I am originally from Venezuela, South America. I love reading any fantasy, original or rewrite...[fan fiction fits in all of these right?] I am specifically a fan of the vampire chronocles and other Ann Rice series; Stephanie Meyes Twilight series; and many others that though not included does not mean they are less important...[Steven King...you belong here too!] I write in my own time...mostly poetry...working on a few short stories that I must review before posting them so there is little to no errors regarding grammar and punctuation. I am new to fanfic, and have been enjoying the time I have spent reading other people's work...soon I hope to display my own...show my bit of talent... [I am by no means an expert...and the fact that English is actually my second language...*sigh*...lets just be happy I can speak coherently, people] I am being coerced into writing my own fanfiction regarding the twilight saga...arm twisted I made time and did my research. Seems like all the bases [scenarios] have been covered by many other writers here [love you guys!] that I must say I have to think hard to have a different angle or point of view regarding the story... I must divulge that I have always been partial to vampires ever since Lestat came in the picture...the romantic view to an immortal life filled with no remorse but some regret...a view shared by many other writers regarding the vampiric lifestyle... Now after the movie series, Underworld, I have been facinated with the world of the werewolf and lycans... must say it does not surprise me when the element of shamasism and shapeshifting was included in the mix by SM... As authors make and brake rules set by each story...I find myself in awe of new lore...and within that glorious "disregard" that amuses me...I find gratifying freedom. Something I appreciate well...as much as I welcome dreams when I slumber... This is a freedom many of us share...an escape from the mundane we are trapped by...that pesky, little thing called *tone of disdain* reality... I have given out enough of my personal information...those who are lucky enough will get to know me better...thank you for granting me space for privacy...
