Hello everybody! My name is Lauren Brittain and I’m from a kickass town in the Midwest. We have the best library ever, one that I frequent often. I even volunteer there, proof of my nerdiness. I have a bookish blog that you should MOST DEFINITELY check out because it's much cooler than my Shelfari profile. http://booksthatsmolder.blogspot.com/
I love...
-Throwing parties
-Watching movies with my little brother
-Relaxing with a book while listening to rain sounds at Rainymood.com
-Eating carb-loaded, ultra-stuffing food like my mama’s potato soup
-Wandering aimlessly on cool, summer nights.
-School, most days
-Indie Folk! Damien Rice.
-Other cool artists, like Death Cab for Cutie, Snow Patrol, and Regina Spektor
-Illegally ripping music from library CD’s to my iPod
-Rasberry sorbet and Nutella
-You(:
I wouldn't say writing is my passion because I usually feel like punching walls when I’m doing it but the feeling of satisfaction after finishing something admirable is too great to pass up. Books however, fill my life to the brim with their grandness.
Currently I’m in the muddy beginnings of a novel written in letters. It's messy and I"m not very good at outlining...but hopefully it'll get there.
I write a lot of poems while wandering around walking my dog at night.
Reading and Writing Goals for 2013:
[ ] Write a complete, relatively coherent novel
[ ] Self-publish my book
[ ] Read ten classics (the term "classic" is used pretty loosely here)
[ ] Review 100 books on my blog
[ ] Get two more followers on my blog

Tell me I'm awesome on Figment where anything I've written (that's worth reading) resides: I recommend Il Immortalis Vita, Shivering Stars, or Under the Drooping Willow.
