Hello, and welcome to my website! My name is Leilani Graceffa, I love to write (when I'm not trying to publish), listen to music, play video games, make art, take photos for photography, and create things in general, doesn’t matter what it is (applies to writing genres too). To add a bit of humour, I identify as a polymathic/multi-powered Mermaid/Siren (or Semi-Mer) because the human race scares me, and I have a pet black dragon named Crescent. You can find more about me on here and my profiles.
