PERSONAL HOBBIES:

WHY I WANT TO BE A WRITER:
I have crazy stories! Plus I love stories!  I dream stories at night and have to rack my brain trying to figure out if I ever saw that anywhere or if it is truly "mine."  Right now I am into Asian TV: Thai Lakorns, KDramas, Japanese Movies, Chinese humor, but not the shocking tragic endings, HOLY COW! Then I caught on to Anime, Manga, Manhuas, etc. And now the online web novels brought me here. I'm having a blast and want to get involved.

OFFER TO VOLUNTEER:
If anyone even reads this and might want the kind of help I can offer, mainly English proofreading, editing, etc.  Since so many of the authors are students who may want some extra free help with their writing here or in the academic setting/TESOL prep.

I don't have a website so if you would appreciate the kind of help I can offer or just would like to chat for fun, just use paulafbrady@gmail.com

Thanks for reading my profile
