I really just write fanfiction to help me cope. I am the 2nd middle child with two older sisters and a younger brother. I'm the least talented in the family, with the exception of cooking/baking. My eldest sibling has two books published already, my next sister has been nominated for several major academic awards at her school, and my brother is the baby and only boy. Enough said. I, on the other hand, can cook, bake, and be a good friend. 
I love to write stories, because they let me become the 'perfect' person I wish I could be. I take great pride in 3 things. My writing, my friendships, and my ability to cook. Stories can give me a vacation whenever I need it. 
I love helping people because I am very empathetic. It's a gift and a curse. I suffer from Bipolar II, and bad knees, and I have a very odd mindset. Nobody at my school understands it, so I find it easy to relate to people because I can think in ways they simply cannot.
