I'm a writer. Well, to be strictly accurate, a would-be writer, since I haven't really been published yet. Fantasy is the genre I want to write in, mostly. I also have this bad habit of trying to write...um...poetry.
I love music of many kinds. My favorite composers are Beethoven and Bach. There are only a few kinds that I vehemently dislike, among them rap, heavy metal and anything that is obnoxious and loud just for the sake of being obnoxious and loud.
Ethel Smyth (1858–1944) was an English composer and a member of the women's suffrage movement. Her compositions include songs, works for piano, chamber music, orchestral works, choral works and operas. Smyth's extensive body of work includes the Concerto for Violin, Horn and Orchestra, and the Mass in D. Her opera The Wreckers is considered by some critics to be the "most important English opera composed during the period between Purcell and Britten". This photograph of Smyth was taken in 1922.Photograph credit: unknown; restored by Adam Cuerden
