MY STORIES WILL BE FINISHED! YOU JUST NEED PATIENCE WITH ME AND MY HECTIC SCHEDULE. I PROMISE I'LL FINISH ALL OF THEM!

I am struggling with completing more Grey's stories, since the characters have stopped "speaking" to me as they did before. I do have a plan to finish all the ongoing stories I have because I hate leaving things unfinished, but I'm not sure I'll keep writing in that fandom after that. It was the most amazing 10-year ride, though, and I have zero regrets.

Irene. 27. Italian currently living near Florence. English is not my first language, but I'm more confident when I speak English some days than Italian. It happens to the best of us.

Former basketball player, former amateur photographer, somewhat active fanfiction writer. I love food and cooking, and it will come up in my stories quite often. Every time that I can I like to travel and walk extensively so that I feel less guilty when I eat my body weight in chocolate or breakfast food. Language lover.

SHOWS (in order but not really): Fringe, Castle, Orange is the New Black, Killing Eve, The Handmaid's Tale, Grey's Anatomy (up to S11), Code Black, Remedy, Sherlock, The Night Shift, Absentia, Broadchurch, Rizzoli & Isles, Bones, The Mentalist, Stranger Things.

The National big fan, but I listen to mostly indie music, though I have a newfound love for hip hop and rap. Music is inspiring for me and helps me write. As to confirm this, all the songs in my story "Before I Saw You" are taken from any The National's song that seems to fit the mood.

Feel free to send private messages and start conversations, I appreciate tips and corrections, even constructive criticism, or if you simply want to chat and discuss my stories or favorite shows.

I'm a very open-minded reader and writer, I love angst and fluff, and I always try to maintain a balance between the two, though my latest stories are becoming a little darker, a little closer to reality. Realism is what I strive to portray in my stories, so I do research and obsess over details, hence why the chapters come sparingly.

I should re-write most of my early stories, edit their awful grammar, maybe even tweak a couple of weird scenes. I don't know if I'll ever get around to do it, probably never, but who knows? I prefer writing more new stories for you rather than digging up whatever I have already written in the past. Whenever I'll do it, though, you'll be the first ones to know about it.

Speaking of nattylovesjordy, the one that inspired me for the Adjective Series, I co-wrote a Castle one-shot with her, Easter themed, involving Castle and Beckett trying to create the perfect Easter now that they are a couple. It started out as a challenge between us, and we ended up having so much fun! Here's the link to Quiet Company, With The Notes in My Ears: http://www.fanfiction.ws/s/9147990/1/

Also to be included in my co-writing endeavors:
