O_MyWord

Hi. I’m Shannon

I live the good life in Wagga Wagga, NSW, Australia. I currently juggle work for the local ‘Servicemen’s Club’ and University, where I am studying a Bachelor of Arts – Professional Writing and Publishing, via Curtin University. I like technology, gaming, heated discussions, letters, politics [In the basic of forms. I try to stay away as much as possible], reading; mostly the classics however, Tobsha Learner, Patrick Rothfuss and Marieke Hardy, are favourites of mine. I also enjoy, live bands [rock/punk/indie - and then some], food/cooking, and writing.

I'd love to receive vintage, and black & white postcards, but anything is wonderful.

You’ll typically find me wearing:

Band Shirts
Red Lipstick
Doc Martens
Jeans
Ugg Boots
Dirty Clothes [I'm kind of hopeless]
Unbrushed Hair
