Bio:

"Tomorrow may be hell, but today was a good writing day, and on the good writing days nothing else matters."
--Neil Gaiman, somewhat less sinister ducks

I never know what to write in these things.

I'm Saffron. I'm a high-school-going-onto-college student living in the capital of the world. I love words and writing and literature, and I am occasionally pretentious and bitchy and crude as all hell. I'm in love, I just don't know with who. I am attracted to attractive people and attractive personalities. I don't like douchebags, but I'm close friends with several assholes cause I'm more or less an asshole myself. I love jerks cause they're hilarious to me.

I also like anime and manga and cute Asian things, because as hard as I try to break away from the Asian stereotype, I really just can't resist those giant bug eyes. I'm not a gamer, although I cannot resist old-school Pokemon and Mario Party.

I'm really coming off as more of a...something than I am, which is bizarre. I'm not this obnoxious in person, I swear.

Names referenced here have been changed to protect myself.

"My favourite piece of information is that Branwell Brontë, brother of Emily and Charlotte, died standing up leaning against a mantelpiece, in order to prove it could be done. This is not quite true, in fact. My absolute favourite piece of information is the fact that young sloths are so inept that they frequently grab their own arms and legs instead of tree limbs, and fall out of trees."
--Douglas Adams

"I wanted to put a reference to masturbation in one of the scripts for the Sandman. It was immediately cut by the editor. He told me, 'There's no masturbation in the DC Universe.' To which my reaction was, 'Well that explains a lot about the DC Universe.'"
--Neil Gaiman
