Noctis Alae

Hello, and welcome to the profile of Noctis Alae, bookworm extraordinaire.

I love to read, and that is what has inspired me to write. My interests in genres are extremely variable, but I have to admit that many of my favorite books contain at least a little bit of romance, though it may not always be the focus of the tale. I tell stories that I want to read, but I also love creative writing prompts and will at least write a short story if I get an interesting suggestion.

Besides reading and writing, I also am slightly obsessed with music. I listen to all kinds of music, so if you have a favorite song that you want to share, feel free!

I run cross-country and track, and I also like to bike and swim. I love soccer, but I'm not a very good player so I just watch other people.

Give me a shout if you know of an incredible song, movie, book, quote, poem, author, actor, or whatever! I love to explore new things so I'll make sure to look into it.
