Heyy.. I'm Lachrymosa from Fictionpress. I dont' know if you remember me, but I believe you read one of my pieces - about an artist on the aerial silk, lots of fluid description. I hope to read some of your works here and will appreciate the permission. Thanks! 
That sound! On the wind. The FFF is calling. Will you answer?
FFF is back up and running, if you're interested.

About Circus
| Occupation: | Suddenly jobless, I have started to look into writing enough to support myself with publication. And by "support myself" I mean "put gas in my car and buy books", because I live at home and go to college. |
| About Me: | I've recently turned nineteen. This is not necessarily good or bad. I can buy cigarettes in my state, but I don't want to. That is generally what nineteen means. I've finished one novel that I've decided to set aside indefinitely, and I'm working on another that I'm excited about. I ramble about some things here: http://thethreering.blogspot.com/ |
| Interests: | Writing, reading... I never know what to say I'm interested in. Old things. Irish poets and authors. Greek mythology. |
| Publications: | A poem in Teen Ink Magazine in... 2004? Man, I wish I had kept that magazine. Yes, it's a kids' magazine, but it put a poem of mine between its gray paper pages, so it sort of counts. |
| Favorite Books: | Bleak House by Charles Dickens, The Complete Works of Robert Frost, The Dubliners by James Joyce, Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Walden by Henry David Thoreau, The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail by Robert Edwin Lee and Jerome Laurence, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, The Catcher in the Rye, Nine Stories and Franny and Zooey by J.D. Salinger, The Dark Tower Series by Stephen King, Paper Towns by John Green. |
| Favorite Quotes: | I sought a theme and sought for it in vain, I sought it daily for six weeks or so. Maybe at last, being but a broken man, I must be satisfied with my heart, although Winter and summer till old age began My circus animals were all on show, Those stilted boys, that burnished chariot, Lion and woman and the Lord knows what. - William Butler Yeats ["The Circus Animals' Desertion"] |
| Loves: | Yeats, Joyce, Frost, Dickens, the dictionary, Greek myths, my friends, my family, snippets of conversation, genuine smiles, sunlight, brief thunderstorms. |
| Hates: | Snow, the way I write sometimes, old women with pursed lips, being able to see someone's spine through their shirt. |
