Hey!
Name: Danielle
Age: 23
Location: Western Massachusetts
How do you identify?: (sexuality/gender) I’d consider myself a lesbian, though I am of the belief that sexuality lies within a continuum. I’d say maybe I’m a 98%...;)
Interests/hobbies: I am an avid reader and writer. I write mostly fan fiction of various fandoms. I am a huge movie and television buff. I love beautiful women, yoga, knitting, walking in the cemetery, practicing random acts of kindness, making friendship bracelets, sending snail mail to my friends just to say hello, spending time with my friends, and eating cupcakes.
Favourite books: “The Hours” by Michael Cunningham is without a doubt my favorite book; it has had a considerable impact on my life. I love the Harry Potter series, anything by Jane Austen, the “Wideacre” trilogy by Philippa Gregory (as well as anything else she’s written), “Life Mask” by Emma Donoghue, “By Myself and Then Some” by Lauren Bacall, “The End of the Affair” by Graham Greene, any book by Sarah Waters (especially “Affinity”), “The Awakening” by Kate Chopin, anything by Virginia Woolf (my hero…), and many more than I am probably forgetting.
Favourite films: Anything with Meryl Streep (especially “The Devil Wears Prada” and “Bridges of Madison County” and “The Hours”), anything with Catherine Deneuve (especially “Belle de Jour” and “The Hunger”), “Gone With the Wind,” “Rent,” anything with Lauren Bacall, Ava Gardner, Humphrey Bogart, Audrey Hepburn, Jean Harlow, and Julianne Moore. I LOVE classic films, foreign films, queer films (though, let’s face it, some of them are pretty crummy), romantic films, historical films, and many more.
Favourite music: I’m a BIG showtunes fan, so I love just about any of it (ie “Rent” or “Thoroughly Modern Millie” or “Wicked”). I love Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan, Lady Gaga, Stevie Nicks, Brandi Carlile, Joshua Radin, Chris Pureka, Cher, Bette Midler, A Fine Frenzy, Lenka, Ingrid Michaelson, Fiona Apple, Lara Fabian, Madonna, Peaches, Regina Spektor, etc.
Favourite TV shows: (okay, I’ve gotten impatient with quotation marks…) The Sopranos, Nurse Jackie, United States of Tara, True Blood, Dexter, Desperate Housewives, The House of Eliott, 30 Rock, Grey’s Anatomy, Xena, The X Files, La Femme Nikita, The Pretender, Bad Girls, etc.
What would you like to send/receive?: I’m not super interested in emailing or IMing, to be completely honest. I’d love snail mail or postcards…it’s a dying art! It makes my day to see something addressed to me in the mailbox that isn’t a bill.
Who would you like to send and receive mail from?: Money’s a little tight so international stamps would add up, but I wouldn’t object to having an international pen pal. I’d honestly be happy to write to anyone who wanted to write to me.
Anything that you would particularly NOT like to receive?: (eg. "food/candy with nuts") Nothing extravagant. I can’t afford lots of fun gifts and packages in return and would feel guilty if I received them. Also…nothing creepy. No locks of hair or fingernail clippings….
What would be in your dream letter or package?: Anything! I’d love something that someone put time into, because I’m the type to give time and effort in return. I would most like to write with people who were honest and open.
Anything else you'd like to add?: I’m an open book. Any questions, just ask! I think this is awesome…I really hope to meet some new people!
Picture (optional): Does knowing what I look like make me more or less appealing to write to? *raises eyebrow*
