    I am a married mother of three from North Carolina. Reading is a great passion of mine. I collect books and have always wanted to take the time to attempt writing one. My business is selling video games. Currently, I am in the process of opening an online retail store. When I’m not selling games I like to play them. Another hobby of mine is ghost hunting. I’ve taken many interesting photos along the way. It is my hope to someday write about my adventures. Dogs are my favorite animal. My yellow lab’s name is Will. He is truly my best friend.

    I lost my soul when I fell to earth
    My planets call me to the void of my birth
    The time has come for me to kill this game
    Now open wide and say my name…

    The pen is mightier than the sword. How outdated. In the 1900’s, it would have been, “The typewriter is mightier than the machine gun.” But in modern times? “The word processor is mightier than the particle-beam weapon.”

    I play video games, build things with Legos, and try to kid myself into thinking that I’m mature. I love dorking around with computers and I have a strange obsession with hats – nice ones, that is, no baseball caps. My dream is to either become a Masterbuilder or a drummer, and neither seem very close. Such is life.

    Since joining Ficly, I’ve come to realize that I love playing off of other people’s work, reshaping their ideas to form some coherent things. Half my stories come either from challenges or from hitting the “Random Story” button and writing a sequel (I highly recommend this, the things that you’ll find are amazing!).

    I love to write. One of my life goals is to write a novel, but right now work, church, and family take up most of my spare time. This site helps me scratch that writing itch that pops up occasionally.

    My policy is quid pro quo. If you follow me, I will follow you. It’s as simple as that! I’m all about building the community.

    Want to write something with me? Send me a note! I’m up for pretty much anything.

    Well some of you will be interested to know that I’ve graduated with a Bachelor of Arts and am currently working a dead end job to pay the bills. I still spend silly amounts of money on books.
    I love the music of Dashboard Confessional, Jonsi and Jimmy Eat World. I’m inspired by the works of Neil Gaiman, Diana Wynne Jones and Hayao Miyazaki. I still love Ficly :)

    Right Now: I’m a 19-year-old girl trying to figure this whole life thing out. So, if you don’t see me for periods of time… I’m doing college. It’s insane

    Someday: I will be the girl I know I can be. I’m going to do my very best to always keep on keepin’ on.

    Welcome to my World: “I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions.”

    I have lots of wishes and dreams. I don’t know if any of them will come true, and that’s scary. I have loved and lost, in a different way than you might think. It changed me forever.

    Chloe Cypress, you are always in my heart and on my mind. I will never forget you.

    Restarting my short lived ficlosophy at the behest of a friend. Should be interesting. It seems I find it nigh impossible to give out 5’s, so don’t be overly offended if I seem horrendously harsh.

    LMR is someone in their late twenties who has yet to figure out who they are and what they will be.

    When she auditioned for Wheel of Fortune, she solicited the help of her internet peers in order to find an appropriate occupation. “Minutiae expert” and “internet loafer” were the two responses she got, and quite accurate ones at that. She ended up going with “freelance writer”, a half-lie since she hasn’t done that for years now.

    Oddly enough, during round two of the audition process, “free-lance artist” was the puzzle she solved. She thinks it may have been a sign.

    You can also find her at http://www.twoplayercoop.com, where she tries to remember about writing about media issues.

    Charlie K was a single celled organism who had grown on the side of a test tube in an alchemist’s laboratory. His life was a simple one, and Charlie was not happy with it at all.
    One day the Sultan summoned the famous alchemist Yakuul Kon-Zizzi.
    “Zizzi You have spent fifty years and a ton of gold trying to create the elixer of life. Either you will produce it today or you will be executed.”
    Zizzi had no fear because back at the lab, the elixer was complete, waiting to be tested.
    What the alchemist did not take into account was the will of the single celled organism that would be later known as Charlie k.
    The three microns Charlie had to cross to reach the elixer seemed like hundreds of miles.
    Later that evening when the sultan was removing the head of the alchemist, a young boy only one day old felt no regret that the alchemist had to die, because with the help of the philosopher’s stone, Charlie k was born.

    “If people never did silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get done.”
    —Ludwig Wittgenstein

    My name is Wednesday, and I guess you could say that for the most part that quote personifies me. If there were no silliness in this world I would die.

    Unfortunately, recently I have been suffering a nervous breakdown. I don’t mind saying that here. The people who know me I trust enough, and to the people I don’t – well here’s an insight. It’s not all shits and giggles on my side of the pond. Because as much as I’d like, life is not just silliness.

    Cheer Captain of the High Seas in the League of Awesomeness.

    Rest is not idleness,
    and to lie sometimes on the grass
    under trees on a summer’s day,
    listening to the murmur of the water,
    or watching the clouds float across the sky
    is by no means a waste of time.

    I am just an ordinary girl, living in an ordinary town. There is nothing really remotely special about me.

    When I was younger, I used to make up a bunch of stories that I have forgotten over the years, but, when I’m lucky sometimes a story pops into my head, and then it takes a while, but I eventually get it written down.
