Name: Stephanie

Age: 18

Location: Maine. Call me a New Yorker. Lived there for just about forever. Upstate New York, not NYC. Though I would LOVE to live in NYC. And Toronto. And Paris. Oh, and I'm in college. I'm cool like that now.

Favorite Color: Blue

Religion: Christian. Protestant. And I'm firm in my beliefs, thank you very much! No playing around here!

Ethnicity: I'm 1/2 hobbit, 1/2 human. I'm short, I have curly brown hair, and one pointy ear. Seriously. But no big hairy feet. It's the human in me. jk jk jk... I'm 1/2 Italian, 1/4 Finnish, 1/4 Classic American Mutt with some Native American thrown into the mix. Call me Italian... or die.

I am totally in love with: 1) Lord of the Rings. I love the book, I love the movies, I love it all. I even have the 100 50th anniversary edition of the book. It's my baby. 2) LOST. I started watching it cause it had Dominic Monaghan but now I'm so addicted that I can spend hours on the LOST message boards, and some of it isn't even about LOST. 3) RENT. I just saw the movie in May, and I fell in love. I love the music, the characters, the morals not so much, but yeah. I would give up a limb to see it on Broadway. Okay, well, maybe just the money to get a ticket. 4) Pirates of the Caribbean. Johnny and Orlando? Sexay. The second movie? Ehh. It was pretty good. 5) Harry Potter. Even though my mom thinks it's evil. Hello, I'm not going to grab a stick and try to do spells. CHRISTIAN! Not WITCH! I don't like the movies, though. The movies were blah. But I lurve the books. 6) Nightmare Before Christmas. I've loved this movie since I was about... 2? 3? Longer than any of the laaaame emo freaks at my school who only buy Nightmare Before Christmas stuff to look cool.

I am also totally in love with: Mark (RENT), Pippin (LOTR), Harry Potter (self-explanatory)

I like to read: Fantasy. LOTR, Harry Potter, I mean, come on. In fanfics, I like basically anything, but not so much romance and I despise slash with a passion. If they're straight, keep them straight. However if they're gay (Angel/Collins) it's okay... kind of... well, only Angel/Collins. I like the concept that all hot guys are AVAILABLE for me. And anyone who makes my Marky gay deserves to have to Avada Kedavra curse put upon them. Or get killed by a Balrog. Personally, I think the first would be cooler to watch.

I like to write: Stuff where people get hurt, mentally or physically, and someone else has to help them through it. It's a basic underlying plot you'll see in almost ALL of my stories. However I can also write humorous stuff (SEE Winter Break) but I'm more partial towards angsty dramatic traumatic stuff. I've also recently discovered I have a talent for making Mark look like a fool when he sees pretty girls. I like making fun of Mark. He so gosh darn... makefunofable. But I lurve him.

My favorite ships are: RENT: Mark/Maureen, Mark/Joanne (weird I know), Mark/OC (yes I know, Mark with anyone.) LOST: Charlie/Claire, Kate/Sawyer, Jack/(the late)Ana Lucia, Hurley/Libby. Harry Potter: Harry/Ginny, Ron/Hermione. LOTR: LOTR romance fanfics are weird. But if I must, I'd say Sam/Rosie, Pippin/Diamond. For those of you who don't know, Pippin marries a hobbit named Diamond. Diamond of Long Cleeve. (that's me!)

Works in progress: I might not be here-I'm working on it. It's hard to make Mark so angsty and stuff without going overboard. A beautiful face-Also working on it. I don't know where to take their relationship yet so it might be a while... sorry. Do Something-I know what I'm doing. This story is VERY suspenseful so... I'm not saying anything.

BTW I'm much prouder of my RENT fics than my LOTR ones. My LOTR ones are older so... not as good, maybe?
