My real name is Erica, Kobriel is a character in one of the stories I would someday like to write. I love to write, but it takes a lot for me to put myself out there. I'm (yes) very shy but full of ideas and if I gain confidence I think you will find I have alot to offer.
I have traditional views, and deep religious conviction, but I'm not preachy or judgemental. I enjoy fantasy, science fiction, and history mostly. My writing deals with some unpopular issues sometimes. I express most of my viewpoints through poetry, which is my strongest medium. I also am a pursuer of art, and struggle many times to suppress my aesthetic tendencies. But I write for others to enjoy, and that's the gist of it.
