Hey! I'm Katerina, although on here most people call me Kat. :)

My greatest passions are acting, dancing and arts (namely drawing & image/video editing), but I have a wide range of other interests as well, including history, music, medicine (incl. related subjects such as nutrition), architecture and sciences, just to name a few. In addition, I love being active; besides dancing I also really enjoy running, swimming, rhythmic gymnastics and figure-skating. On here I'm mostly roleplaying but I also enjoy writing stories. Anyways, I'm always happy getting to know new people, so if you have any questions feel free to PM me. :)

Regarding my stories, I'm admittedly really bad at updating them regularly, in part because I just have to be in the right mood to work on a specific story, as well as the fact that my focus tends to shift between stories and fandoms. However, I definitely will not abandon any of my stories, some might end up on the backburner or on official hiatus, but overall I have the ambition to finish writing each one of them. I tend to write darker stories with most of them generally falling into the Drama, Angst and Hurt/Comfort genres on here, as it just allows for more room to explore the characters beyond what is readily apparent - and, admittedly, I'm just not one for overly fluffy stuff. My stories also tend to be more introspective pieces, particularly some of the oneshots I wrote/am working on. Oh, and obviously, as any other person writing fanfiction, I love getting feedback as not only can it be quite helpful to get people's input, but mostly I also find it really helps with keeping me motivated to work on my stories, if I know people genuinely want to read more and what specifically they like.

As for roleplaying, although I generally don't mind getting invites - as long as it's for fandoms I know and like - for the time being I'm not looking to join any new forums! {so, please refrain from sending me invites, particularly if I don't know you!}
