Default Hi all!

Hi, everyone. I am outcast2005 and I am from the Chicagoland area. I am a bisexual Mormon--yes, I know that sounds self-contradictory--and a college student. I am only out to a few friends but I am excited to say that I plan on moving out of my strictly devout parents' home in August and will be able to live the way I want for a change. I love to read and write--I have an unpublished science fiction manuscript that I haven't had time to revise yet--and I write song lyrics in order to sort out my feelings. I love music, art, history, and the color black. It's nice to find a place like here where I can connect with others.

to EC! It's so neat that you've penned a science fiction manuscript. Best of luck with that!

See you around the forums!
