Hey guys. So, if you've made it this far, you've either heard of me or my stories through someone. Kudos to you. I've currently got six stories up; four of them are finished, another is on hold until I decide to drag my lazy arse back into it. I try to update as frequently as possible, but sometimes, it takes me awhile to find my muse or get an inspiration for the next chapter.

Let me say now, it really angers me when people don't review a story they read. I get seriously aggravated when I have well over 50 people requesting an alert or adding me to their favorites list, and none of them review. It's not like you don't have an account. I don't even care if it's just a one word review like "awesome", just leave me something to let me know that you actually care and are taking the time to read my work. I don't write just for my health, you know. I write because it makes me happy to be able to move someone with my work. So don't be lazy and do your job. That's partly the reason why fanfiction.net is alive and well. So authors can get feedback on their work.

I write stuff constantly. Whether it's fan fiction, short stories that deal with real life, or poetry, it seems like I've constantly got a pen or pencil in my hand. Or, my fingers are flying away on the keyboard. I guess you could call it my release from every day life, or the only nonviolent way I can think of to deal with the rage I feel sometimes.

I'm going to college for my bachelor's in criminal justice, and once I'm done with that, I'm going to attend the police academy and get my badge. Once I've got at least three years under my belt, then I'll choose either between the FBI or the CIA, or one of the other government agencies, if they'll have me. My mom thinks I'm nuts, my dad thinks it would be freaking awesome, and all my friends laugh at the thought of me carrying a gun. So much for the encouragment, guys.

Besides writing, I also find that music is my other release. I listen to a wide variety of stuff, but I absolutely despise country, rap, and some hip hop. I tend to focus more on alternative, classic rock, and such. Right now, my all time favorite is 30 Seconds to Mars. I also like bands such as Saosin, The Used, The Fray, The All-American Rejects, Coldplay, Anberlin, Hinder, Snow Patrol and so on. I also love basically anything classic, like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Doors. . .yeah, this list could go on forever.

So, the fan fiction. I only have written Harry Potter so far, but I've been contemplating tackling some stuff from elsewhere. It's just a matter of actually getting brave enough to attempt it.

Favorite HP pairings:

Hermione/Draco (only b/c there's no way in hell it would actually happen)

Hermione/Oliver Wood (damn sexy Scotsman he is!)

Hermione/Viktor Krum (there are some pretty good ones out there)

Hermione/Charlie Weasley (recently discovered this pair and absolutely adore them!)

Hermione/Sirius Black (love this pairing more and more every day!)

Hermione/Remus Lupin (there's a few good ones out there.)

Hermione/The Weasley Twins (oh gosh, amazing, amazing, AMAZING!!)

I cannot stand these pairings:

Ginny/Draco (I just find it entirely wrong, it would never work)

Draco/Harry (some of them are okay, but I just can't get into them)

Hermione/Ron (Ron was meant for the comic relief, not the romance. Sorry!)

Hermione/Harry (Harry was meant to save the Wizarding world, not fall for the bookworm!)

Harry/Ginny (as much as I want it to work, I just can't get into these either.)

So, what else do you need to know? Oh, well, I guess I'll give you the aspect of my physical appearance. I'm your typical average blonde, blue-eyed, 5'6" American teenager. I'm 20 years old, and eagerly anticipating that magical 21st birthday. I live in Indiana, which sucks a lot, and I want to get the hell outta here before I rot away in this nonexistant place. People generally piss me off, whether they mean to or not, and I tend to have a very short fuse when it comes to my anger these days.

Enough rambling! I think I've bored you all sufficiently enough to the point where you probably don't want to read my stuff now. But just give it a try, I promise they won't be bad or off the wall insane.

Here's something new for you guys. If you wanna find out more about me, check out the Myspace, you can find me there at http:///needcreed4life. I should probably say, I would rather you send me a message first to let me know that you are from . Add me, or whatever, but I'll let you know now that I have my account set to private mode, so you can't see my profile unless you add me. Sorry if that makes you guys mad, but I'm just playing it safe.

Thanks guys!
