Hello there, thanks for checking out

thank you for the feature!

1. What is your name/name/nickname?

          My online alias is Finn, which I chose not

          too long ago for another community. For

          me, it's easier to go by an alias that is co-

          sidered gender neutral, just so no one w-

          orries about misgendering me!

2. What age group do you belong to?

          I'm currently in the age range of 21-27!

3. What continent are you from?

          I am from North America and operate on

          the EST/EDT timezone!

4. What is your first language? How many languages do you know?

          At this time I'm fluent in English, intermed-

          iate in French, and a beginner in Spanish.

          I would very much like to continue to exp-

          and my knowledge of these languages as

           well as learn more!

5. How did you discover this community?

         After very suddenly regaining my interest/

          motivation to read again, I made a quick

          search on Amino and found the commun-

         ity! It looked/s very nice and I hope I have

         a great time here!

6. If you are newer here, what do you hope to do/learn/get out of this community?

         ors, to read the amazing and unique writing

          enhance my own writing abilities.

7. If you've been here for a while, what advice do you have for newcomers?

         N/A

8. Do you consider yourself more of a reader or a writer?

         Though I like to think of myself as both, h-

         ere lately I have been more of a writer. Mo-

         st of my focus has been poems or short

          stories, but I'd like to also read more!

9. What is your favorite kind of blog to make here (i.e. book reviews, poems, discussions...)? What is your favorite kind to read?

         I'd love to post some book reviews, perso-

         nal writing, TBR lists, and even book hauls

         in the future! I love reading these so I think

         it would be fun to also post them!

10. What is your preferred reading age genre?

         I don't mind the age genre so much as I

         mind the actual genre. As of now, I'm o-

         nly really interested in sci-fi, dystopian,

         fantasy, horror, suspense, and thriller ge-

         nres, as I'm not a fan of romance or com

         edys, for the most part.

11. What is your preferred reading genre (i.e. Fantasy, Chick-Lit, Thriller...)?

         Please read above! <3

12. What is your favorite book/series?

         I have a few, which would be Harry Po-

         tter, Percy Jackson, To All the Boys I've

         Loved Before (a rare exception for rom-

         ance), Twilight, and Divergent.

13. Which book would you NEVER recommend to anyone?

         Animal House.

14. Who is your favourite author?

         I don't have a favorite, though I'm very

         keen on Rick Riordan.

15. Have you ever published a piece of writing? If so, was it self-published or traditionally published?

          Unfortunately, I have not.

16. What format do you prefer writing in (i.e. short stories, poems, letters...)?

          Poems and Short Stories

17. What genres do you prefer to write (i.e. FanFiction, Romance, Mystery...)?

          I don't have a specific genre that my

          writing would fit into.

18. What are some of your favorite book quotes? Any original quotes of yours that you'd like to share with all of us?

            Everything that is or was, began

           with a dream.                 - Lavagirl

19. If you were an animal, what animal would you be?

           I'd most likely be a sloth, as I'm very laid

           back and prefer to be slow and steady,

            compared to always being on the go and

            doing things.

20. If you were a mythical creature, which one would you be?

            Most likely a type of Gorgon, like Medusa.

21. If you could befriend a fictional character or creature, who/what would it be and why?

            Miss Honey from Matilda has a special

           place in my heart. She is the adult I ne-

           eded as a child and the kind of adult th-

           at I aspire to be.

22. Have you made any friends through this community? If not quite "friends", have you met any cool people you'd like to give a shoutout to?

             I haven't met anyone yet!

23. In what age did you start reading? Did you a favorite childhood book?

              I don't the age I was when

             my love for reading came to be, thou-

             gh I do believe the movie Matilda was

             a big influence. My favorite book as a

             child was either anything in the Magic

              Treehouse Series or Junie B. Jones.

24. Name three books you recently finished and instantly became favorites.

               Honestly, it's been a while since I've

              really read anything so I don't have an

               answer for this question.

25. Name three books you recently finished and didn't like as much as you expected to.

               See answer above.

26. If you could befriend a book character, who would it be?

              See question 21

27. If you could live in any literary world, where would it be and why?

              The world of Harry Potter or the Lord

              of the Rings. They both seem so nice

              and fun to be a part of. With magic,

               coziness, and amazing characters.

28. What book are you currently reading? Writers, what writing project are you currently working on?

              I'm currently reading the Marauders

              First Year on Wattpad (which is also

              my first time on Wattpad, so please

              give me suggestions!). For writing, I

              am currently in more of a roleplay s-

              tate, as I'm a prefect and professor

              on a Hogwarts community.

29. Do you have any other hobbies or interests?

             I'm also an avid gamer, as I play a lot of

              Smite, Monster Hunter, Overwatch, Ho-

              gwarts Legacy, and ARK. I am also very

              keen on movies and television shows! I

             am currently watching the Paranormal

              Activity series, though I also enjoy Scre-

             am, Stranger Things, Orange is the New

              Black, Riverdale, and many other series

             and movies.

30. Is there anything else you'd like to tell us about yourself?

              I am always open to PMs and such! I'd

              love to hear any recommendations, w-

             hether they be books, authors, shows,

              movies, games, etc.!
