I love being read, I like it when people like what I write, but if I write something that's terrible--tell me. You don't learn from compliments.

I don't read works on this site, as a rule they don't live up to what I look for in a story. I'm really surprised by how many works have millions of readers that just aren't that good.

I think out of all the authors I have read, Anne Rice has had the most profound affect on me. Someone accused me of copying Anne Rice when I wrote my (unfinished) vampire story.

I love the book "Dracula". In its own way it is very romantic, and real. That's what I love about Anne Rice, she writes vampires that you can fall in love with.

I try not to write a story unless I am sure I can do it justice. I guess you could say I write from my heart and my head. When I write fanfiction I try not to do it the way everybody else does. And I hate it when people just re-tell the story--that's cheating.

For those of you who enjoy reading my stuff, thank you very much!
