Hi. I'm new. Duh. The (real) name's Shelley. But my (RP) name is Leah. Author name? Nerissa. Gamer name? Shay... But for the sake of not confusing everyone, just call me Leah. :) I hail from the city of Houston in the US of A. Not a fan, 2/10 do not recommend. But, it's home right now, and I do what I can with with I've been given. I am married to a lovely country boy from the South, and we have two cats that we adore as if they're our children. Which, we have none of. Yet. I work for a local School District as a Bus Driver, and my hobbies include numerous video games, writing smutty fanfiction, listening to folk music and heavy metal, and run multiple fandom pages on numerous media platforms. I am a semi-professional fangirl. (I do it out of love, not out of wealth, obviously. Heh, could you imagine getting paid to be a fangirl? Dream come true, man...) My RP interests are quite simple: -When it comes to writing fandom: I enjoy Canon Divergence, Alternate Universes, and Canon x OC -Classic fantasy, mostly in medieval or renaissance settings. I like the idea of 'new powers, new life' and 'how did that happen?' storylines. -Romance: Any, all, favor comedic relief and/or silly meet cutes. Slice of life is fun, but when I get into romance, I like it to be fresh starts between characters (Yes, even with Canon and Fandom) -Cliche is always fun. With that, I am happy to be here, and look forward to meeting you all <3
