About Demeter

Hi, I’m Demeter! I got my name from the musical Cats, not the goddess, although she’s quite cool too.

I’m twenty-three and I study translation in university. I like hot chocolate with whipped cream. I like to rap sometimes. But please don’t tell anyone.

I love cool earrings and colourful nail polish. I love travelling and seeing new places, especially if those places make me feel like I’m in a Jane Austen book.

I discovered YWS in May 2008 when I was looking for a site to post stories and get comments. I’m really glad that I did, although nowadays I don't really post any of my own writing. I am working on a novel though!

My favourite book is the Catcher in the Rye and my favourite film is the Lion King, which you probably never guessed!

I also like fluffy baby seals. ^_^


Interests

reading, writing, earrings, nail polish, languages, travelling, colours, mudcake


As a former (and rather excellent) liar herself, Aru knew that, sometimes, speaking the truth felt like wrenching a thorn out of your side. But doing the opposite meant pretending it wasn't there. And that made every single step ache. It was no way to live.
