10 Days To Go: Meet the Admins

(I'm basically just copy-and-pasting my post on the tumblr)

But yes, I’m Piper. I’ve been writing since the fourth grade. (Though, back then, all I did was rip off copyrights. I’m just glad I got through that phase early. After all, who would have the heart to sue a fourth grader? But I digress.)


Last year I did NaNoWriMo, TWWE, and Script Frenzy, all of which I dragged Lia into. I finished all of them with my sanity somewhat intact. Last year was also the year I finished my first novel (I say “novel.” “Soggy mass of plot holes and bad characterization” would be a better name for it.)


I was voted “most likely to die of a coffee enema” in the eighth grade, which was ridiculous. It hasn’t killed me yet.


Yes, I’m kidding. Though that would be an awesome way to die, in my opinion.


Anyway, I write a little bit of everything. I’ve written a screenplay, novels, more poems than I can count, short stories, essays, you name it, I’ve probably written one. (Or at least attempted to.) Most of what I write is YA, and I seem to have a thing for dystopia.


I’m also the crazy bastard who thought up TWWE, so if that doesn’t say something about my sanity, I don’t know what will. I’m speaking from personal experience when I say that the TWWE draft will be terrible. It will be like writing done drunk at two in the morning. (I hear that worked out for Hemingway, though.) (Can you tell I like somewhat-witty parenthetical asides yet, or do I have to do another?)


I have two dogs, both ridiculous, and a cat, who’s equally ridiculous. In my free time I go online and accomplish nothing.


Anyway, ten days to go! Or nine, depending on how you look at it. In any case, just over a week until Lia and I sell our souls to caffeine and embark on the quest that is TWWE! Stick around, it ought to be hilarious.
