My name is Maryanne. I'm 20 years old and a junior in college. I'm studying to be an English teacher, but I'm also getting a Professional Writing Certificate so I'm not just limited to teaching for the rest of my life. As I'm sure you've figured out, I love to write. I write fanfiction mostly right now because I don't really have time between school and other obligations to write much else. But I do have a partial novel sitting on my hard drive that I want to take another look at before the summer is over. I also love to read. I prefer classics mostly, but I have been known to read a little bit of popular fiction. I've just found that the classics run more towards my tastes because modern fiction is too easy to read sometimes. Though I do like a no-brainer book every now and again.

I also do a little bit of crafts, though not much. I knit, but I haven't been able to do a lot of that lately because it costs money to get yarn and it takes a lot of time to be able to do it. Which I don't have. So my knitting bag is sitting there gathering dust on my floor until I get a few days to myself to knit.

Just recently, I have discovered that I enjoy riding horses. I've grown up around horses, but never really enjoyed being around them that much. But this past summer I went on a week long retreat because of a scholarship I got and one of the days we went on a trail ride. I enjoyed it very much. Though normally I don't go for the whole trail ride thing because it can be pretty boring. I much prefer going to a field trial and riding because you're looking for dogs and there's a lot going on around you, so you're not just plodding along at a slow pace going nowhere. There is a purpose to it all.
