brigits_flame: Introduction
Hullo to my fellow brigits_flame folks! I'm finally getting around to my oh-so-thrilling introduction. And so, a Bootler, in 5 minutes or less:
I live in Toronto, having finally started "real life" a little over a year ago. So far that's consisted of working (I'm in market research, which I actually very much enjoy most of the time), trying to find an apartment I like (I'm moving again this coming September, but hopefully that'll be it for a while), and spending time with my various groups of friends. I sort of have a cat, but she lives with my parents so I don't get to see her very often. I spend the majority of my leisure time reading, playing video games (mostly in the Guitar Hero/Rock Band family), playing piano, or playing table-top roleplaying games with one of my group of friends (we're going to be starting up a 4th ed D&D game soon, which I'm very much looking forward to).
In terms of writing I've been playing around with it for pretty much as long as I can remember, but never anything too serious. I'm very good at starting things, not that great at finishing them. My most recent completed project was actually a gift for my best friend, who asked for an "undead army story" when we met in our first year of university (it only took me 5 years to finish a 40 page story. Eesh). Part of the problem is that I've had to develop my "business writing voice" for my job, and in the process lost my "fiction writing voice", so I'm hoping being part of this community will help out with that.
And that's me!
