About Me
| About Me: | |
I am a 26 year old graduate of biology and chemistry with nearly no background in writing and little to no real-life experience. And despite my leaning towards the sciences and facts and evidence in all my studies I have found a strange young woman in my head named Ellison. Ellison, when I was younger, liked to pretend to be a princess, or an archeologist, or an astronaut, or whatever it was that she decided would be fun. Ellison is my imagination. Ellison, in time, found that she could open doors to other Worlds. Other Realities. Starting with other realities of myself, which she opened the doors to and called Daydreams. Eventually we moved on to such different realities of myself that they became someone else. And then Ellison found a door one day while I was bored in a work meeting. She cracked it open to a scene so strange and different that I could not look away. The girl on the other side was not me; she was not even a version of me from some random fandom I had picked up. She was Original. She was the beginning of this entire story-writing affair. |
