I've been writing stories since I was seven, and poetry since I was about thirteen. I used to write full length stories but my mother threw away a 500 page handwritten "story" I'd been working on for three years and I haven't recovered.

I tend to end up writing fics that are a little obscure and don't end up getting read until long after their written, by then of course I've gotten better, so it's a vicous and cruel cycle. *L* If you think it's crap, try reading something else, it could be better... though to be fair, it could just be crap. ^_^
