To anyone who stumbles upon this - Hi!
So, I’m sort of new to this community and just thought I’d introduce myself properly.
My name is Julie. I read a lot and try to write a little bit every day. I have anxiety, so I try to stay as calm as possible (to varying success). I read a lot of fantasy and science fiction. I try to read stories from different time periods - myths, and books by authors such as Tolkien and Lovecraft alongside more modern stuff like Robin Hobb. I also love other media - like Doctor Who, Marvel movies and Harry Potter.
Writing is something I’ve always wanted to do - I just always have made up intricate stories in my head to amuse myself. I started writing every day as a way to deal with my mental health issues - every sentence was a form of defiance for me, at a time when I had deep depression.
I like to write stories that are kind of hard to explain - they tend to be fantastical, mythology based, with modern elements. It kind of depends on what peaks my interest at the time.
My current favourite writers are Robin Hobb (The Realm of the Elderlings books are so awesome) and Terry Pratchett (his stories were so funny and profound at the same time)
I could go on rambling here, but I think this is enough for now 😊
