About Me

Slightly twisted...oh ok then...very twisted redhead that writes too much, but poetry is my one true passion so ill be doing it til i die or loose my right hand. Call me old fashioned for loving verse, but i do!Although writing on this thing/facebook etc confuses me. Its a recent realisation that you can never write enough about yourself, and selling yourself on here like some prize show horse by trying to sound cool just isnt, so im going to keep this simple. Im just emotional,clumsy,spiritual me, i love writing and the outdoors and the only place i can really be myself is in my imagination, its not preoccupied with all the crap outside it.Been with my boyfriend Jamie for quite a while now and hes the best guy a girl could wish for!wish he lived closer though :(. If i wrote any further than this you would probably want to slap me very hard with a puffafish so im going to stop, in the vain hope of alluring an air of mystery...oh and im also related to Graham Chapman of the Monty Python crew, which impresses folk at parties.href="http://www.pimp-my-profile.com/"Pimp My Profile
