About Me

My name is Kayleigh. I'm 18 and love to talk - well type. I study Gaelic and English literature at Edinburgh University. I adore writing, it's my passion along with gothic literature, Disney movies and comedy panel shows. I dream of having a published novel sitting alongside a screenwriting Oscar. I like to participate in the awards season and make FYCs and predict the winners although I'm not very good at it. I also rant a lot on here so you have been warned.

Lionesses have no manes. How do they know when they've grown up?

They always keep a calendar nearby.
