Hello, you can call me Haley. It’s nice to meet you.
Forgive me for my unconventional approach of putting the 'about the author' on the first page rather than the back of the cover. Then again, this is a multi-media blog, isn't it?
I’ll have you know that I like slice of life and romance anime, fan fiction, and have an eclectic selection of favorite music. I’ve written countless unfinished stories and completed none. I’m a new adult and always feel ‘new’ to everything I do, no matter how many times I’ve done it. Could that be stupidity? I’ll leave that for your interpretation.
I enjoy reading fantastical stories with compelling narratives- especially when it’s written from multiple perspectives. But, I’ll enjoy practically any easy read if I have a good lo-fi playlist on in the background. And yes, this was written with one playing- to all who didn't ask. As for my writing itself, I find that it's mostly fueled by the void that grows within. I don't admit this to prove that I'm a consumed and gloomy person, though. Boredom, loneliness and burnout are all commonly felt by everyone, and I am no outlying exception; nor am I desperately alone, bored or stressed. When I have bouts, writing is my hobby. I also like to draw and color, but much like my prose, hardly any of my works are ever finished.
Unlike my traditional art, however, writing gives me the creative liberty to compose entire societies, storylines and fantasies that pull me out of reality as I know it. If I were to cultivate this hobby well enough, it could become my perfect escape. Don't worry- I know my reality is more important. Idealism is a cruelty, but can be manifested in literature. I am also aware that feeding and posting it makes me part of the problem, but I don't care. We all know fiction isn't real, but the emotions and motivations behind it, the authors, are.
You are real, right?
