Hello, I am a 19 year old female. I have been writing fantasy for about eight or nine years off and on. I am very shy and prefer to speak only when spoken to first, but I'm trying to come out of my shell. I suffered with Chronic Lyme disease (I don't care what the CDC says, it's real) from October 2010 until April 2012. I'm still coping with a few symptoms and would like to offer support to any other Lyme patients.
