Home State or Town: Reisterstown, MD
Hobbies/Interests: I LOVE Lacrosse, Basketball, Field Hockey, Watchin' DC, of course, parties, talkin' on the phone, etc., and of course gallavanting about with my friends =)

Favorite character and why: My favorite character is probably Joey because of her witty comebacks and her sarcasm. She's one of those characters that are more or less MEANT to be the favorite, y'know?

Character you most identify with and why: I can't say they I identify with any of them. I don't have a messed up past like Joey, a fairy tale outlook on life like Dawson, I'm not TOO much of a screw up like Pacey, and I'm not a slut at all, like Jen.

Favorite possible storyline: I have so many, I really don't think I'll be able to name them all.

Why did you write this series? What did you hope to accomplish? I started this series because I have WAY too much free time on my hands and I love Dawson's Creek, so...I just hoped people would like my series and maybe even be inspired to write their own series. (I know it sounds corny, but hey)

Thoughts on:

James -- I think James VD Beek is a pretty good actor. I especially thought he acted really well in the season finale, he pulls off Dawson incredibly well. I can't imagine ANYONE doing that character as well as he does.
Katie -- I think Katie Holmes is a great actress. Not a lot of people can pull off that sarcastic image believably, but she does. I also think she's really pretty and we'll see her a lot on the big screen in the future, even though Disturbing Behavior isn't doing great in the box office.
Michelle --Even though she is the youngest on the show, I think she is a good actress....but I don't like her character at all, and I don't know the REAL Michelle, so...I'll have to leave it at that.
Josh -- Like everyone else, I think Joshua Jackson is a great actor. He showed he was really professional by being able to do all those scenes with the character that played Miss. Jacobs
Kevin -- I am a total Kevin Williamson fan! I loved SCREAM, SCREAM II, and I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER. I can't wait for the sequel to I KNOW. And of course I am probably one of the biggest Dawson's Creek Fans in the world!

Thoughts on:

Dawson -- I think Dawson is more or less a total, oblivious, dreamer. I really like how he always goes to Joey for help or comfort, it's hard to find friendship that strong. But you would think if they have known each other for so long that Joey would be more comfortable around his parents, but it seems like she isn't..maybe it'sb/c she found out about his mother's affair in the first ep..but I've always wondered....
Joey -- My fave character....I think Joey is a very interesting character b/c of her cynism (spelling?) and sarcasm. But you kinda have to wonder if she is SOOOO incredibly poor, then how come she has soooo many clothes? I mean have you ever seen her wear the same outfit, twice? While in Jen's case she wears the same purple shirt, and green button down shirt over and over and over again! You just kinda have to wonder....I think Joey hides behind her sarcasm and cynism to shield her from being hurt like she was when her mother died and her father was arrested.
Pacey -- Pacey is probably my second fave character on the show. However the producers, or whoever, haven't really told us, the viewers, very much about him, except that he's more or less the town screw up. But WHY is he a screw up? Just because he lost a pee wee baseball game? And he "made up" that affair with Tamara? Or b/c he gets bad grades? That may mean he's a...disturbed child, but far from the "town screw up". We don't know much about his family or back ground so maybe that's why he intrigues me so much.
Jen -- I'm probably one of hundreds that don't like Jen. BECAUSE I think if she didn't come to town at the time she did then Joey and Dawson would have ended up getting together sooner. And since I am such the Joey/Dawson fan, I happen to resent her for that! But i do have to admit that I admire the way she stands firm with her beliefs even though her grandmother more or less brainwashes her to believe that prayer is the best extra curricualr activity.

Thoughts on this award: WOW! When I saw that you were giving out one, I really didn't think that I would win at all. The response to my stories was really good, but I never expected this. I think it's good that you're giving one out because it gets the authors motivated to keep on writing. I know I will try to write the next part as soon as I can.

Thank yous: I'd like to thank all of my fans who voted for my series, without you I wouldn't be writing this =) I would especially like to thank Michelle who always wrote with encouraging words, even though I haven't heard from her lately (ahem! just kidding!)

Anything else? nope =)
