About Me

Hey, I'm Katie. I have a twin sista named Alison who is my best friend in the world. I LOVE reading fictional literature of all kinds because of the knowledge and truth about life that I gain from it. I like classical literature and of course my favorite, Gothic noir mystery novels. I have a strange fascination with serial killers. My favorite books off all time is the Hannibal Lecter series by Thomas Harris, whom of which is a BRILLIANT author that I truly aspire to be like one day...maybe. OR maybe not; his writing can be severely twisted at times, but it's beautiful nevertheless. Other than literary mysterious escapism, I love music of all kinds, especially trip hop (Massive Attack) and rock (NIN, A Perfect Circle, Smashing Pumpkins), films and filmmaking, Star Wars, The X-Files, Harry Potter, LOTR (I already declared myself a dork, so it's all good), childhood fairytales, dogs and cats, and I love the ocean because of its mystery.
