About

Hello there! A big welcome to you! Whether you're a newcomer here or long-time reader, I'm thrilled that you stopped by. Please pardon this fairly basic "About" page - I've never been the best at them!

Via The UnNovelist

- Eve Estelle isn't my actual name - it's a pseudonym, an alias, a pen name.

- I've been blogging steadily for about four years now, but had a previous 6 months or so of experience before Edge of Night.

- I write for fun. I write to improve. I'm an experimental writer, trying out all sorts of different styles, forms, and subjects.

- Though most of the time I do try to adhere to them, I sometimes deviate from the rules of writing. I don't believe in boundaries when it comes to creativity (but certainly the result isn't always pretty!).

In other news,

- I fail terribly at planning anything in advance.

- I'm a very reserved person, especially online. Still, I love people!

- I'm from the Midwestern U.S.

- When it comes to movies, books, etc., my tastes vary widely - anything from fantasy, to sci-fi, to mystery, to comedy; classics, modern, silly, stupid - you name it. Except romance. (But even then, occasionally...)

- Besides writing, I love to stargaze, hike, take pictures, horseback ride, and I'm a lifelong gamer.

Focus

Edge of Night is a blog that focuses on writing. It's a place for me to publish my poems, short stories, and other works online. While the main topic is writing, I do post periodically in other areas.

Why I Started It

I'd been wanting to share my writings with the outside world for a while - I wanted to hear what people thought; what they liked, what they disliked. I wanted to find out what I needed to change, to improve in each piece of work. Before this blog, my files would simply gather dust in Microsoft Word, until I lost the files altogether. But with it, I'm able to interact with wonderful people from around the world who can help me see the good and the bad in my writing - and in return, I can do the same for them, if they'd so like.

✧ Created: October 2014

✦ For those in my personal life, the fact that I blog is a secret (shh!).

✧ I'm a Whovian, Sherlockian, fan of Supernatural, and Person of Interest.

✦ I love the paranormal, supernatural, and any mysteries of the kind.

✧ I prefer my glass half full, thank you very much!

✦ Although I'd love to travel, it's unlikely to take me far (so far: Canada).

✧ I "patiently" waited ten years for 2016's Warcraft film.

✦ I chose EoN's name without thinking about it - I was tired of being indecisive.

✧ I find dark pieces especially fun to write, but they aren't usually personal.

✦ You can probably tell that I'm a fan of Edgar Allan Poe.
