First off, hello! Thank you kindly for traversing through my inbox! 

Books [all kinds, although I'm particular to childhood favorites (such as the Chronicles of Narnia and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) and the fantasy genre in general.]

Moleskin Notebooks (yes, they are ridiculously expensive for mere booklets of blank paper, but I feel significantly more bohemian whilst writing in one)

Pens (specifically the good kind that dry quickly and write well. Specifically blue ink)

My family (they understand my movie references more often than the rest of the world.)

My friends (shout out to anteredono who happens to be one of the best friends I've ever had the pleasure of knowing)

Biscuits and Gravy for breakfast (I did not think that was how 'biscuit' was spelled, holla at spellcheck)

Cheesecake (specifically blueberry, specifically my mother's)

My cello (his name is Friedrich Bonhoeffer III)

Summer rain (it has that smell...and thunderstorms are perfect as well)

Walking at night (and talking to myself)

Driving alone at night (especially when I've got my windows rolled down and the lights turn to the pavement golden)

Swings (apologies to slide people, but the park swings are where it's at)

Phone calls with my Gramp (he lives far away, but he's my favorite and I'm his, so we'll talk for hours...he's taught he a lot during our phone calls)

Dance party sessions in my room (I have nothing to add to this, but I need these parenthesis for consistency)

What’s the best compliment you’ve ever received? I can't think of a specific one, but generally compliments based on intelligence or ability rank more highly than ones on appearance.

Would you ever run for president/prime minister? I'd love to be able to but I just don't have the confidence or knowledge to be in politics.

What was your favourite age to be? I used to think it was 17 because you're kind of able to do adult stuff without the responsibility, but in terms of the best age personally I'd say 19!

What are you afraid of? Death and being lied to, if that can be a fear?

What is a story that you love to tell about yourself? This one time I met Benedict Cumberbatch. He smelt great.

What fictional world would you want to live in, given that you could never meet the main characters from that world? Harry Potter, because nothing could beat having magic and going to Hogwarts

What’s the stupidest excuse you’ve used to get out of something? One time, when the Icelandic volcano erupted and there were problems with flights because of the ash cloud, there was a rumour going round that our English teacher was stuck in Benidorm so nobody did the homework. He turned up to the lesson (he'd never even been to Benidorm) and just laughed when we told him and we all got away with it!

What would you be famous for? I like to think writing 

What is the weirdest present you’ve ever received? This Christmas my mum and dad got me this year's Now CD, which is really weird because I generally don't listen to chart music :S

What’s the best present you’ve ever received? For my birthday, makeyourdeduction took me to London to see Richard III. That was pretty darn awesome.

What would be your special subject on a quiz show? Cabin Pressure, it's my favourite thing.

I'm going to tag acelili, optimisticimagineer, eimmas, bringinglenerdyback and stargirl1995 to answer these questions:

Do you still have your first teddy bear?

If you could duet with any singer who would it be?

What character do you wish people compared you to?

Are you a dog person or a cat person?

If you could read one person's mind who would it be?

Why did you decide to join Tumblr?

Who do you talk to the most on Facebook?

If you were going to change your name what would you change it to?

Would you rather meet your favourite celebrity in person once or talk to them on Facebook as much as you want?

Lizzie McGuire or That's So Raven?

I was born in Torquay and lived there for the first nine years of my life.

I've never been abroad and only got a passport a few months ago, so my first holiday outside the UK will be in August when I go to Florence!

I have four dogs, all Cavalier King Charles Spaniels.

The first episode of Sherlock I saw was Reichenbach, after which I became obsessed with it immediately.

I have grade six piano and was working towards my grade eight before I went to uni but sort of gave up a bit...

Its like I'm all:

And then they're all:
