# About me
I currently live in Huddersfield with my boyfriend. I have just graduated with a degree in English Studies with Creative Writing with a pleasing 2.1 pass. I was the Huddersfield Student Newspaper's Books & Fiction Sub-editor 08/09. Currently working full time as an Assistant Librarian at a local college.I'm a young wanna-be-published writer mainly in fantasy dealing with Norse mythology and Viking culture as I am a big fan of anything do with Vikings.
In my sparetime I either watch tv being lazy or try and make something using embroidery, fabrics and my lovely new sewing machine my boyfriend got me for christmas. Examples of my textile work can be seen here along with many of my favourite and most beautiful pictures taken with my ace camera that I got for my 20th birthday. Many pictures are taken on my travels, in my local area or on holiday. I looove using my camera, if only because sometimes I really do capture a special moment. See christmas dawn pics for proof.
Current Residence: Huddersfield
Favourite genre of music: Jazz, Smooth, Proper Rock
Personal Quote: 'Cattle die, Men may die, but Renown never fades.'

it might make it. i sent someone a package in the midst of the strike, but it still hasn't reached her. i sent something to germany the same day, and she got it a week ago. crossing fingers!

if you cast some good luck magic I'll ask my danish pagan friend to get the gods to be nice to me and maybe it will arrive on time.

thought you'd like more of the dragon clan art. and the literary reference in the Ophelia pendant, that's a given, too.
email me when you get a chance, so i can send you your pendant!
