it's impossible to give an accurate portrayal of oneself. well, i live in a blanket of heat called san antonio. i want to be elsewhere, preferably somewhere cold, but i'll have to wait and see. i'd like to be a published writer someday, as i really can't picture myself in any other profession. to be more exact, i'd like to write childrens literature. i think childhood is the most wonderful period of life and encouragement of dipping deep into ones imagination is what i'm all about. i'm really into magical realism. a couple of my favorite writers are richard brautigan and robert mccammon.


As a former (and rather excellent) liar herself, Aru knew that, sometimes, speaking the truth felt like wrenching a thorn out of your side. But doing the opposite meant pretending it wasn't there. And that made every single step ache. It was no way to live.
