I read so that I can write.
The real rush I get from reading is jumping into the writer’s brain for a wild ride that I can jump off of if it gets too intense but also one that satisfies me whenever I crave for it…
If I have children they will take my personal library as the theirs,a memory of who I was in so many items that come together to form an idea of who I was…

I am constantly updating my shelf as I have thousands of books, this site will have to wait till I get it all on here : )

I'm a lover of books, art, tea, nature, animals, naps and many good things.
My favorite reading is horror followed by a good mystery!! Juicy tales about werewolves, witches, vampires, psycho killers you name it I love it. My favorite writers are Graham Masterton, Richard Laymon, Dan Simmons, Douglas Preston, R. Patrick Gates, Jack Priest, Ann Hood, Betty Dravis, Brian Lumley, Agatha Christie and a slew of others. I guess it's funny how people think such a nice girl like me reads such barbaric stuff...............
I'm a huge animal lover, I cry watching nature shows but Horror is my love when it comes to books. I often surprise myself how I love the scary things and movies but am so sensitive when it comes to animals, nothing makes me more angry than when they suffer. I also enjoy sci fi and catacomb, church and battle of ancient titans style of books as well.
I also adore fiction, cookbooks, graphic art by Milo Manara, Achilleos, Vallejo, Frazetta, action movies: Hong Kong cinema, costume dramas.
I love music, have been a classically trained flutist and pianist since I was 6, but I do indulge in rock, trance, soundtracks (music not songs as much) electronica, new age ,some pop and I could listen to Classical music for hours every day.
I also love art and drawing, from Egyptian art, Greek and Roman to 19th century, Modern and Architecture. I do tons of sketching and painting in my free time.
Also I absolutely love science, from molecular biology to quantum mechanics, nanotechnology down to archeology, aerodynamics, plaeontology
and my beloved astronomy. I would love to go to the outer space!
I attended Pratt Institute and majored in Fashion Design, and that is what I love and do now. It let's me combine many of my favorite things into one.
I love cooking, collecting cookbooks and spoiling my boyfriend with home made bread and butter.
I also love nature and animals. I have 4 cats and at any time one of them loves to put a paw on a page I'm reading perhaps they feel jealous of my love for books! They are great reading companions, keep you warm unless they fall asleep on your leg which in turn tends to fall asleep too!
On a side note I'm a fashion designer, I'm 26, and I work and live in NYC.I am originally from Poland, came here when I was 12; I capital L love books, movies and art... I find small things such as my weekly browsing for books and sitting in bookstores such an enriching experience. I don't really shop for clothes like most girls, because I am around them at work all the time, I favor books to anything.
