About Me

Arts loving, witty, savvy working girl and bon vivant here just to meet people and make friends.My life revolves around literature and the reading of the ever growing backlog of books I have gracing the shelves (and indeed the area surrounding said shelves). Fave authors include: Amis, Bellow (rip) Chaucer, Morrison, Austen and many, many others. Cherished books are: Michael Cunningham, 'The Hours', Audrey Niffeneger 'The Time Traveler's Wife' and Chaucer 'The Miller's Tale.' I also love writing as well as reading and am well on my way to becoming the next Iris Murdoch (ahem).This arts lovin lady also loves music - Interpol, Scissor Sisters, Nitin Sawnhey, Sigur Ros, Kings of Convenience and indeed anything else Scandinavian. This list, however, is rather modest - there are many others I could've mentioned. Cinema is also a passion and as well as loving the obligatory arthouse enjoy teen slasher, Laurel and Hardy and anything by John Woo.When not listening, reading, writing or watching I lke chatting into the wee small hours, dancing, indulging shopping and mooching around.
