Hey! What's up! I'm Katie (KT for short) aka TakeMeorLeaveMe2010 (duh xD).

Welcome to my profile! As you can see, I like exclamation points!

My writing tends to reflect my life in some way, shape, or form. It may be very subtle, but there are bits of me in all of my pieces. I write for fun, so only contructive criticism. I find flames to be A) ridiculously annoying and B) pointless. If you hate my story, don't read it or stop reading it. You don't need to tell me how much you hate it. If you do, that's your problem and you can tell all of your friends about this horrible, teenage writer on FanFiction. Knock yourself out. Just don't talk to me about it. I will ignore you.

That being said, I really appreciate reviews that are something other than: "OMG, that was so good." I mean, if that's really the impression you got, that's awesome! But tell me what I need to work on. I often feel like my writing isn't as good as it could be and I need to hear it from other people to make sure I'm just not being confident. If you think it was awesome, tell me what parts you liked. If you didn't like it, tell me what you didn't like. I may not agree with you, but I will probably take at least some of what you said in stride.

As far as multi-chapter fics, I try to balance the comedy with the drama, but I've been told they're pretty drama-packed (I like that =D). My fics may not be the most realistic, but that doesn't mean I don't try to make them relatable or well-written. I gladly admit, "Eleanor Rigby" is a bit of a Mary-Sue, but I am not afraid to say that I worked very hard on that fic and that it's decently well-written in my opinion.

Fics that have been recently posted:

"Lonely People" - This fic picks up where "Eleanor Rigby" left off and will deal mainly with the issues of Max and Ellie's increasingly problematic marriage, Max Jr.'s desire to join the army, and Michelle's boyfriend's health problems.

Fics that will be posted soon or are in the works:

Untited right now, possibly called "Mickey Mouse Club" - Not sure whether it will be a multi-chapter fic or a oneshot, but this will be an Across the Universe/Full Metal Jacket crossover. Max's bootcamp experience will take place at the infamous Parris Island, where he will meet and befriend Private Joker, Pyle, and Cowboy.

Now, as far getting to know me, the person rather than the writer, here's a few things about me.

- I have a pretty sarcastic, dry wit sense of humor, which probably why have I have so much fun writing Max/Jude or Mark/Roger fics.

- I'm someone who spends at least five or more hours in the auditorium, backstage, or drama room at my school. So if you want to talk anything Broadway or showbiz related, I'll probably know what you're talking about.

- I don't like drama, as in lots of gossip and shit. I know, weird for someone who writes drama-packed stories. I tend to remain neutral and I refuse to choose sides in any situation. I will stick up for my friends, however, so don't think I won't cuss you out. xD

So, that's a little about me. I hope you enjoy what I write and if you ever want me to read your story or review or just talk, shoot me a PM.

Much love,

TakeMeorLeaveMe2010
