Veiled by my favorite maiden's name from my most recent story, I am known as Lady Esmeralda on here. However, some of you are more familiar with my real name, Hannah Marie, used on the Rebelution as well as other forums. I was first introduced to this site by Sir Emeth Mimetes (or Jay); I have been following this forum consistently for the past couple of months, but I have finally decided to join you all on here.
I enjoy writing a great deal; though, my specialty definitely lies within poetry, non-fiction, and short stories. I have written several novels, but none that I believe to be truly worthy of much. Recently, I have decided to pursue an endeavor in writing Christian fantasy and allegories, as I am finding the modern world to be a bit boring for a story background as of late.
Besides writing, I spend a great deal of time reading. My bookshelf contains many classics and old literature as opposed to modern literature. I adore the ancient wording and writing style more than I do the straight-forward, modern-day English style (for reading material that is). I also hold value in theology books.
If I am not reading or writing, I can usually be found playing with musical instruments, listening to music, singing, or writing music. Music is the third time consuming passion in my life (as I am sure some of you are bound to read on the Instruments thread).
Seeing as many of you are homeschoolers, I think I will break the consistency by saying that I am not and have never been. I remain within the public school system for five more months before I am introduced to the college spectrum.
I am looking forward to continue reading everyone's wonderful postings.
P.S. For those who are wondering, "Grüße" is "greetings" in German.
Glad to have you here. I hope you enjoy this forum. I know it's helped me in my writings. Have fun!
