Emily, the Octopus

I'm an octopus. No, seriously, I am. When I use a computer, I open multiple browsers, stretching to the far ends of the internet to find what I need to feed my desire to write, like an octopus will utilize their many arms to search for what they require to eat. I constantly tweak my stories well after I've written them, like an octopus might tweak their camouflage. I may have to cut out pieces of my plot, detach them from my story as a whole, as an octopus can detach a limb. Sometimes my ideas are mundane and blend with other peoples, and sometimes they... don't.

So, in a nutshell, and although not everyone can tell, my train of thought is basically run by an indecisive bipolar mimic octopus with short term memory loss. That's just the way my writing process works, and I love every second of it (besides editing).
