![]() Author has written 13 stories for Ninja Turtles, Teen Titans, Star Trek: 2009, and Voltron: Legendary Defender. There's not a lot to know about me (that I'm also willing to share on the internet). Just know that I am female and a writer. I started writing fanfiction in High School and didn't really share it with anyone aside from one of my best friends, whom I will call NP. NP has been a pillar for me in my writing over the years. We've had days that we just sat side by side and she read off my laptop opened to whatever bit or piece I wanted to show her. She always asked for more. She always asks how my writing is coming, fanfiction or not. She's awesome. Enough said. I'm less awesome but I don't mind. There. That should be enough to run with for a working profile. Also, welcome! Enjoy your stay at the courtesy of TheRedScreech, and happy reading! (Note: The profile picture does NOT belong to me. It belongs to jpmatth on flickr.) I guess I can include some things I enjoy: Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, anything Tamora Pierce, all things Disney (which now includes Star Wars and Marvel), DC - especially Batman, Young Justice, and Teen Titans (2003 series) - BBC's Merlin and Doctor Who, Supernatural (the first two seasons are the best (and the scariest)), Firefly (if you guys don't know what it is, it's only the best single season of anything ever!), TMNT (2003 is the best, I'm just sayin', although I can appreciate some factors in 2012), Avatar: The Last Airbender (which means that I should probably give them props for making Legend of Korra more than half decent, though nothing will ever compare to the sheer awesomeness that was (and is) The Last Airbender), and Voltron: Legendary Defender. Other things I enjoy are writing (obviously) and languages. I can speak, read and write in French and Spanish, know some basic Latin and Italian, can say seven or eight things in German, know some random words and can count to ten in Japanese, and can count to twenty in Korean (I can thank five years of Hap Ki Do for that). Yeah, languages are awesome! Also: camping. Yes, camping. With a tent. Usually my family and I are in canoes, too. Ever heard of the Bowron Lake Circuit in British Columbia, Canada? One of the top ten canoeing and kayaking expeditions in the world? I did it when I was fifteen. It rained every day except one day AND we ran out of toilet paper and propane on the last day! Ah, good times. One of the best experiences of my life. I love animals. Horses, birds (mostly birds of prey), dogs (with some prejudiced bias against very specific breeds that I will not mention, lest I receive flack, but don't worry, I'd never harm anything), big cats (because I'm allergic to the domestic ones (for the record, leopards and tigers are the best!)), various small mammalia, snakes, reptiles and aquatic mammals. Since we're on the subject of animals, I feel like I should take this opportunity to explain my username. The red phase eastern screech owl is, in fact, my favourite owl but not my favourite animal (I honestly don't think I have one, but feel free to pick one out for me from the above listed). It's small and colourful, and I'm also small. I'm 5'1/4" (about 153 centimeters). People call me passionate when they're not calling me things like cute and adorable. The red screech, at first glance, really isn't much to look at but look closer and you'll see its over-large, baleful eyes and the red-and-white pattern of feathers that is never the same from one owl to the next.
