The Essentials: Name: Katarina Age: Eighteen Location: Maryland
The Writing: Your Favorite Genre to Write: Anything centered around realism, I guess. Strengths (characterization, dialogue, plot, description, etc): I find my characters incredibly charming, and thus I'll go with characterization. Weakness (characterization, dialogue, plot, description, etc): Um....flow? Yup, flow probably. I find my writing to either be fluid, or choppy and unbearable to read over. Current Project (if you have one): I don't really have anything on the table right now. A few characters have been pulling at my mind, as have a few verses, but nothing of substance. Are You Looking For a Critiquing Buddy?: As in am I looking for someone to send work off to and get a critique in return? No. I'm not writing any long-term original projects at the moment. I do write drabbles and stand-alones that sometime pop up though, and feedback is of course always welcomed/lovely on those. If You Write Fanfiction, What Fandoms Do You Inhabit: Not really/not currently.

The Writing: Your Favorite Genre to Write: For fanfiction - it's angst and AUs. For original fiction - it's generally urban fantasy with romance sprinkled on top. Strengths (characterization, dialogue, plot, description, etc): Dialogue, I definitely feel like I can make dialogue seem pretty realistic. Weakness (characterization, dialogue, plot, description, etc): Plot and description, ugh. I can do plots, I just can't...plot them without ruining it. And I don't remember the last time I described anything. And spelling the word definitely. Current Project (if you have one): I'm working on two things. For my original fiction, I'm working on getting to know some characters/a universe. They're a vampire and a werewolf, and it's pretty fun. For fanfiction, I have a sort of weekly thing I set myself which is just to write an AU Godric/Salazar (HP) fic every week. Are You Looking For a Critiquing Buddy?: Definitely! :) If You Write Fanfiction, What Fandoms Do You Inhabit: Harry Potter,

The Writing: Your Favorite Genre to Write: Dysfunctional relationships, crime, mystery/horror; also, sometimes, straight-up PWP. Strengths: Plot and characterization; and descriptions/imagery if put my mind to it. Weakness : Dialogue. HATE IT. Current Project (if you have one): Mostly fanfic, but also an original for casestory (A FBI profiler on his first case back after he got abducted during another one). Are You Looking For a Critiquing Buddy?: Currently having a teamwriting project on the backburner anyway, so, not exactly. Always looking for beta- or alpha-readers and people to bounce around ideas with, though? :) If You Write Fanfiction, What Fandoms Do You Inhabit: Mostly Supernatural, to be honest. But I wanna extend my horizon this year, I have written Torchwood before and I really wanna try my hands on a Hunger Games fic.

I'd love to hear more about your current project! Witches are my favorite of the fantasy/supernatural species, and I tend to write them pretty often.

We have Fight Club and Amelie in common. I'm going to do my best to check out the other movies you mention. And your books as well.
