Report Astar's Profile

Hi there, I’m Astar! A BIG welcome to my profile!

The first thing to know about me is that I absolutely LOVE stories. I literally devour them—books, TV shows, movies, video games—they’re all good; especially when you find an absolute masterpiece.

With anime and manga in particular, whilst they are also at the core, just another storytelling medium, they are also much more than that. To me, the stories that they can tell are so different to those of any other medium, that when they are good, they are truly refreshing. I certainly wouldn’t want to be without some of the anime and manga I’ve experienced, and I'm certain many of you feel the same.

In terms of other aspects of my life, as much as I love stories, I love the idea (fallacy) of creating my own story much more. As such, I dabble in creative writing, drawing, and programming; all in the hope of one day creating something semi-decent.

As I’m not yet fortunate enough to live off of my own royalties (one can certainly dream), I try to balance all of the above hobbies with work and socialising, which usually ends up with my hobbies taking the backseat...

And that’s it for me. Feel free to say hi back as you’ve read this far. After all, I like to think it can never hurt to make more friends.
