Writing (primarily novels, in English), reading (also primarily novels, in English), spending time with family and friends, singing/acting, watching movies and television (TV series and quiz shows), listening to music, and when my economy and health permit it, I like to travel.
Music
I'm quite eclectic (did I spell that right?) when it comes to music. I listen to several different styles but usually just a handful of artists in each music genre.
Some of the current favorites are Greg Johnson, 30 Seconds to Mars, Eddie Wheeler, Cryonic, Hoobastank, "Weird Al" Yankovic, Maroon 5, *NSYNC, Patrik Öhlund, Nocturnal Rites, and Tower of Stone.
Movies
I love movies, of many different kinds (when I last counted my DVDs, I had over 300 of them). The Lord of the Rings trilogy and the Harry Potter movies are never wrong, the same goes for movies with disability content. It doesn't matter how crappy those movies are, I still want to see them. Recommendations are welcome.
Television
I follow quite a few TV series, like Supernatural, CSI (Las Vegas and New York), House, and NCIS.
There are also these "animal cops" shows on Animal Planet I just can't help watching from time to time. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is another favorite.
I also enjoy quiz shows like Jeopardy! and Who Wants to be a Millionaire.
When it comes to cartoons, my favorites are The Simpsons, Family Guy and Rugrats - as long as the latter's not dubbed into Swedish.
My guilty pleasure is watching Touched by an Angel, but let that be our secret, okay? ;-þ
Books
I prefer to read books in their original language. Well, English-language books, anyway. *grins* No real fan of translations, me (which is ironic since I translate books from time to time). I'm trying to read some original Swedish novels, and we'll see how that goes.
I currently enjoy reading the Dexter series by Jeff Lindsay, and other authors I read are Neil Gaiman, Stephen King and JK Rowling.
Heroes
People who fight for their rights, Renett Grové and other friends and family who keep finding ways to deal with whatever comes their way.

The majority of what I write is disabilityfic, stories where the main character has a disability/injury/illness. I participate in National Novel Writing Month each year and am currently redoing my writing website.
I have some voice training, and in addition to being part of the Voices of Bahá choir I sing individually. Since I don't play any instruments I'm looking for someone who can accompany me, either on guitar or piano, if I get booked for individual gigs
About me: I'm a 30-yearold bisexual woman with spina bifida who's living in the northeastern part of Sweden.
I'm a writer at heart, and would love to do it for a living in some way. I'm fluent in English (my preferred language) and Swedish, and know some German, Spanish, Dutch, French and a little of some other languages (incl. Swedish and American Sign Language, though I want to learn loads more).
I've been out of work for over four years and really want to earn my keep through a paid job again, and on May 7 I started my trial at a traveling agency.
I'm also member of a drama group and dabble a bit with painting.
I enjoy to sing, and I would like to do it more often. If I were to get paid for doing it, that would be even better.... For more information on my singing, check out DisabilityQueen.
I've been a Bahá'í for almost 15 years and even though I've taken several steps back on that I still feel love for the Bahá'í community.
Not sure what else to write here at the moment, but I'll hopefully come up with something interesting soon.
Who I'd like to meet: My girl!
Also dear friends, preferably those who live far away.
Just a heads-up if you're thinking of messaging me: I'm in a relationship and not interested in starting another one. I'd appreciate it if you respected that.
Please don't use Netspeak (all lowercase letters, u and r instead of you and are, that kind of thing). Since English is not my native language I prefer communicating in as correct English as possible.
In addition, if we don't know each other from somewhere else, let me know why you contacted me (apart from telling me I'm pretty *g*). This also goes for friend requests. Thank you.
Thanks for adding me. Hope you're doing great. I hope you like my music too. Feel free to leave a comment on it or on anything else. Wish you a great day and good luck with evrything. Take care and keep in touch.

I've heard from John (wheelzuk) that you're a very outgoing witty and charming young woman who is very musically talented; which is something you and I have in common. I play piano and have been since age 10. I absolutely love it and refuse to stop playing! I think I saw a duplicate Myspace of yours that if you don't mind I'm going to check out.
I also have to be honest and say that I sent you a friend request because I do think you are quite beautiful and you have a beautiful smile which to me also shows that you've a beautiful heart as well.
Ceci~ I want to thank you so much for adding me! I have heard a ton of wonderful things about you and am very much looking forward to getting to know you! Keep in touch as often as you can! Glitter Graphics & Comments
