Our First Blog Post!

Hello!
Okay, so I don't have this blogging thing totally worked out... (the blog is a bit plain and patchy as of yet), but I will attempt this first blog post just for fun. :)
This is Fiona writing right now because my sister Rose is busy at photo-editing at the moment. She'll post something later. For now, here's a bit about myself...
1. I am the eldest of eight children and the daughter of wonderful and good-looking parents!

2. I love G-d and His plan for peace in the world. And I just relish studying Torah ~ Heaven's beautiful covenant with earth!

3. I love music. With a passion. Classical, Middle-Eastern, Celtic... All of it. Just not pop. Sorry, I just can't handle too much of it. This is the kind of music I just drool over!

 

And this is the kind of music I sob over!

 



If you couldn't tell, I'm a piano performer. I'm beginning my college-level studies in August and just can't wait!

But moving on...

4: I love traveling. *sings New York, New York!*

5. I love art. A lot. Especially Pre-Raphaelite art. *ahem* Because most of the models have red hair like me... *ahem* No, seriously - it's just beautiful.

 

6. I write like the wind! Yes, I am a proud lexicon, loving words with passion. With eleven novels finished, I think I could dare to say that I am a prolific writer. I published my poetry on a website called poemhunter.com, and you can find my works here... http://www.poemhunter.com/fiona-schwartzinoff/ And yes, I made up the part in my profile where it says I live in Land's End. I'm just crazy about going there.

 

As for my novel-writing... I only share my novels with close friends because I consider them my beloved rubbish. I am, however, working on publishing one of my religious allegories. (Much like Hind's Feet on High Places or Pilgrim's Progress)

Maybe I'll post some bits and pieces of my novel "The Master" - which I consider to be the one I had most fun with since it's set during the Edwardian age. Or what I call the "Titanic Times"!(My favorite time in history!) 

 

7. I dig historical/period dramas! Downton Abbey, Sense and Sensibility, Anne of Green Gables, Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, Great Expectations, you name it.

8. Reading. Love it.

This book, people. Need I say more?

If you haven't read it, I cyber-slap you.

9. Since we're sort of on the subject... I also love musicals. Especially these three:

 

 

 

 

 

10. I'm starting to like this blogging... :)
