Got Cosmo?

Welcome to my new site, a wonderful little creation due to a terrible bout of boredom one sick weekend! Here I will keep updates on new fics, WIP fics, and anything else related to my fiction. Please look around, comment, and enjoy!

About my Stories:  well, anything that you could possibly want to know about that can be found at any of these following sites: HPFF, FF.net, Portkey, Granger Enchanted, and Unknowableroom. Also, recently I've been trying to give a go at writing an original work [FP] so hopefully that one will go over well...

About me:  do you really even care? well, in the odd case that you do, here we go...

my definition of romance:

 

books/authors I like:

I am a total bookworm. Some of my favorite authors include a wide range consisting of Frank Herbert (The Dune series), Robert Ludlum (Bourne series), Edith Wharton (The Age of Innocence), P.G. Wodehouse (surprisingly, although I adore the Jeeves series, my favorite is A Damsel in Distress), George Orwell (1984 and Animal Farm), William Golding (Lord of the Flies), Jorges Louis Borges, Franz Kafka, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Bruno Bettleheim (The Uses off Enchantment), and Jane Austen (but ONLY Pride & Prejudice)

Opinion of Harry Potter:

well, I may have made it obvious enough through my disclaimers, but—in general—I’m just not all that fond of the books. In my, oh so humble, opinion they’re just not that good. Her prose is nothing particularly awe-worthy, the ideas is like a bad rip-off of Tolkien—at least comparatively—and every creature that you see in there is one that you ca easily see in Borges’s The Book of Imaginary Beings--and that book is short, just over 150 pages short. I genuinely think that her book should come with a disclaimer, she claims to manipulate the old lores to her own specifications, but she doesn’t manipulate it nearly enough for it to constitute as her own.

What I will say, however, is that she had some amazing characters—apart from Ginny, though. But I must say that even that is oddly reminiscent to the people that were in the Fellowship of the Ring...

movies and TV:

I am a TV whore, it’s a sad truth, but a truth nonetheless, there really is no other word for it.
I adore: dirty sexy money, pushing daisies, bones, lipstick jungle, veronica mars, house, heroes, supernatural, the office, ugly Betty, and scrubs

as for movies I own about 500 DVDs and I know so many movies by heart that it's really rather disgusting

free time:

swimming, volunteering, playing water polo, playing soccer, or watching a good soccer match (especially if Hans Lehmann is playing)
