 Author has written 2 stories for Merlin. OK, so now that I am writing, I should probably put something on here. I am 19 years old and an avid reader. I have done some writing, but not too much. I have been thinking of so many ideas while reading stories on here, though, that I decided to get some down. I just graduated nursing school(you now have the basis of my username), and am trying to get a job. Because of that, I might be slow updating. Please let me know what you think of my stories! Also, I will not write slash...it's not my thing. I am into whump, though, and angst. That's about it. Please review my stories! |
