Please feel free to visit me in my tree-top house, where the tea never goes cold and the toys catch life when the music starts. Mad Hatters welcome.

Heluna
Gender: Female
Location: England
Relationship: Committed Relationship
Orientation: Straight
Body Type: Average
Height: 5'2"
Religion: Taoist
Ethnicity: White / Caucasian
About Me: I am a musician, writer and non-stop daydreamer. My imagination whirrs like a never-ending mind-motor in the right-side of my brain (my left side has been shut in the dark for a while).
I am another in a long line of lefty females and have a righty twin brother.
I wish I could paint the vivid scenes in my head, but I haven't found my medium. If my voice could only paint...
Music: Led Zeppelin, Tori Amos, Regina Spektor, Martha Wainwright, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Blur, Radiohead, The White Stripes, Rodrigo y Gabriella, The Klaxons, Muse, The Subways, W.A Mozart, Eric Satie, Deep Forest, Joanna Newson, Guns n Roses, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Ludovico Einaudi, Feist, The Shins...the list goes on...
Movies: Almost all of Tim Burton's films (esp. Beetle Juice and Edward Scissorhands)...Also:
Casper, The Rescuers, All Dogs Go To Heaven, The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, The Lion King, Labyrinth, Star Wars eps. 4,5,6 and 1,2,3, Drop Dead Fred, Addams Family 1&2, Waterworld, Pan's Labyrinth...
TV: I don't watch t.v - if something's good I buy or rent the box set. Some I've enjoyed:
Red Dwarf, Prison Break, Heroes, 24, Extras, Scrubs, Friends, Frasier
Books: I'd love my own library, so I'd rather say 'authors' than 'books.'
I love all David Mitchell's books, though number9dream was difficult being a fraternal twin.
Angela Carter, Louis de Bernieres, Margaret Atwood, Don Delillo, The Bronte sisters, Dickens, Sarah Waters, Robin Hobb, Ben Okri, George Orwell...
Ben Elton for fun.
His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman opened my eyes when I was a teenager.
The Lord of the Rings of course, despite its conspicuous lack of female characters
And I refuse to be judged for being a huge Harry Potter fan! :)
Likes: Cups of tea, blank paper, climbing trees (despite being told I was too old when I was 12), the smell of new books, playing with children, cheese and biscuits, strawberry cheesecake, rainbows, swimming...
The way the clarinet can sound haunting, sweet, jazzy, simple, complicated, strong and soft.
Dislikes: Deadlines, mobile phones, the rise of the ego, competition for the sake of competition, the destruction of the imagination, the hurry-scurry social-network rat-race mindset, the collapse of community, the way so many modern girls think feminism means emasculation...
Hobbies: Playing the guitar, clarinet, piano, singing, reading, writing, attempting to be visually artistic
Vices: caffeine and alcohol
(given up cigarettes for good now)
Virtues: My loyalty, my love. My understanding that children are not undeveloped adults, but that adults are repressed children
Heroes: William Blake, my parner - Jonathan, single mothers and fathers, Joan of Arc
