Genevieve Middleton

Hello. My name is Genevieve, but I'm almost always called Gen because people are too lazy to say Genevieve. Personally, I have no preference so call me whatever you want. But not Genny. I hate Genny.

Other than that, there's nothing interesting about me to say. I'm a very boring crazy cat lady in the making :P

Retrograde Heartbreak

I'm a 21 years old female from the USA with a desire to create.

I've been writing for as long as I can remember and love the writing community. I love the willingness to help others that every author I've met has. I'll help if I can because I find that my strong suits. when it comes to critiquing, consist of noticing plot holes and empty characters, correcting scene arrangements and having a Reader's and Writer's perspective.

I have a club started for the technical aspects of story writing, (ex. plot creation, prologues, dialogue, etc...)

PM me if you want me to take a look at your story or if you have any questions concerning my method of critiquing.

Kobayashi Kyoko

My name is Kobayashi Kyoko. Or, rather, it's my nom de plume. If you prefer an English name, Sugar Phelps will do. If this is your first time visiting my profile, warm greetings and welcome to my humble abode, the land of the hinoki cypress trees and the floating sakura blossoms and the land... where anything can happen, once my pen has touched it.

Think of my writing as a seed that I am attempting to grow and blossom. Phrases and paragraphs are the poetry of its petals, story lines the springs of life that well up inside the tender stalks. My plant thirsts for the water of knowledge, a resource vital to its nourishment, but one that I never seem to possess in full. My flower requires the blessing of fair weather, to be held to the test of the sun, and to be left to rest in the shade. Most of all, in order to blossom to its fullest, it requires an audience to watch it as it grows. Falling trees don’t make a sound unless you’re in range to hear it, as the expression goes. You, my readers, have the chance to join in my attempt at gardener.

So, take my hand as I begin my journey. We’re heading for the realm of the unknown.

I don't have much to say about myself; I prefer to let my stories speak for themselves. I've been a writer for a long time and I take it very seriously. I appreciate very much any help or reviews people can give me and I'm always looking for something new to read. Thanks for reading!

I am but a college writer studying Bachelor of Arts in Communication.

 

I live in the Philippines and am looking forward to working with fellow writers all over the world. :)

 

I'm not much of an expert since I used to only write fanfiction before. This is the first time I have dwelled into real stories. I not much into cliche love stories since I write tragedies mainly. I just find it hard to give a not-so-cliche happy ending so I always end up killing my characters. Ha ha! Anyways, I do a lot of things. I draw, write, sing, and yeah. Stuff. 

 

In my country, teenage love stories of an ugly girl meeting prince charming is already common so I sought after a different genre. Something that is actually fitting to define who I am. I'm practicing tragedy currently. I believe tears are harder to pull out than laughter so I think writing a tragic story is something only a few can actually pull off. Moreover, I don't write just to express my own opinion. I write to voice out the feelings of other people who need to be heard. Yes, I add a dose of 'me-ness', but I know that somehow, being a writer doesn't mean just saying whatever you want on pen and paper. Being a writer means putting yourself in other's shoes in order to gather inspiration from them. You write for them and for your self. 

 

A good professor from my university once told me that we human beings are naturally selfish. We don't do things we don't want to do and even if we do, we do them unwillingly. It's a part of selfishness, but that doesn't mean it's bad. We live to be happy and that is exactly what we are trying to do by being "selfish".

 

 

Feel free to criticize and leave reviews! Thank you. :)

Guess who just learned how to make his bio! MEEEEEEE!

I'm not entirely sure what to put here, so how about I tell you about myself.

first of, I'm a huge nerd! I love so many things that a nerd would love such as video games but we'll get to that later.

Remember when I said I would get to the video games later? (Yeah, like two seconds ago) We'll here you go. Video games are a huge part of my life, I've been a gamer ever since I was little. I mostly love RPGs, such as Pokemon. But I love a lot of other games too. A lot of my stories are based on video games that I like... Okay, so one of them are based on a video game that I like... Anyways. I love the walking dead tell tale video games series, and my favorite video game series is Zero Escape.

I also love to make things, weather it's out of clay or with legos. I guess drawing and writing kind of fall into that too don't they?

If I wasn't a writer, I wouldn't even be on this site, so YAY FOR LITIRITURE!

​The only stories of mine that you will see on here, are the ones that I have high hopes for, and so far, all of these stories take place in the same universe

This was long, but if you made it to the end... I'll... Give you a high five.

And don't forget to check out my friend Prenn Cooder's profile as well.

If you want to ask me anything, feel free to PM me, I promise I won't bite, but I might nibble a bit.

Aaron Ledgers

Alrighty, then... I'm not very good at introductions, but I'll give it my best since my OCD will torture me to death unless I do. 

Okay, first of all...

Name: Jedediah B. (You can call me Aaron)

Age: 22

Birthday: July 15, 1993

Height: 5 ft, 11 in.

Weight: around 180 lbs (Don't really know)

Hair: ginger (syntheticly brown now and then)

Eyes: a weird mix between sky blue and green. Not hazel. It depends on my mood.

Skin: um, I'm a redhead with Porphyria, sooo.... pale as fuck. 

Blood Type: Do you think I really care? :3

Best Friend: Sad as it sounds, my sister. It's a twin thing.

First Impression of my Personality: Very quiet, dislikes any sort of socializing, hates idiots who try to look smart, frighteningly sociopathic, bedroom hermit.

Second Impression of my Personality: Humorously sarcastic, painfully blunt, very hugable, adorkable, and an all around lazy-ass.

(Haha, 'scuse the language if you find it offensive.)

Television Genre: There are WAY too many for me to list

Hobby Genre: writing, reading, sketching, photography, swimming, painting, Martial Arts, Kickboxing, street brawls (honest to god, I love a good fight), jogging, bike-riding, and playing video games. 

Likes: Pancakes, Bacon, Pizza, Chinese, Pop Tarts, video games, reading, music, and writing tragedies with happy/bittersweet endings. Oh, and beanies! I LOVE beanies! Especially beanies with cat ears, rofl.

Dislikes: I dislike squash.  Also dislike flames and people assuming my characters are mary sues (because, hey, ALL of my characters are based on real people, so if you dislike them because you think they're too perfect, you must have issues.)

Twitter: DemonEyes1993 (Aaron Ledgers)

Sooo.... yeaaaaah... ummmm...

Only one more thing?

I'm a boy.

Yes, a boy.

So don't ask.

Have a good day.

PS?

... I like waffles. With syrup. And maybe a bit of honey.

Sunlight and pain are my enemies.

Bye now.
