Hello everyone!  Long time, no see <3  I miss you all so much, and I'm so sorry for my lack of activity!  Family and school have been running over me and I haven't had much free time, but, luckily, a break is coming up soon, so I should be able to get back on track.  I apologize for the inconveniences this has caused! 

Anyways, onto the tag!  I was tagged by my lovely friend (aLSO HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY I LOVE !!! YOU !!!!) urarakaas~!  If you haven't read her works, I cannot recommend them enough, and don't forget to give her extra love because yesterday was her birthday oUo

1. Meaning behind username?
There's an entire story and a half behind it, but to sum it up, during a rather rough period of time (when I was roughly 10-11 years old? i think?) I created a character named Petri after the word 'petrichor,' meaning 'the scent of the earth after rain' (as I did and still dearly do love rainfall) to help me express emotions through writing, since I was and still am not very good at expressing them in any other way.  She wore a paper bag to hide her face because she was scared of other people seeing the 'real' her (and also a bit because she thought she was rather ugly), so she simply took a sharpie and drew a simple smiley face on it.  Thus, Paper Bag Petri(chor) came to be PaperBagPetrichor.  

Another username that I don't use here, but in certain other places, is Orchiddawn.  This one was invented a bit earlier (when I was 8-9) and in my Warrior cats craze.  She started off as a really stupid OC, but I suppose she sort of grew with me, and although I'm not a huge part of the Warriors fandom anymore, I still like the name.  Orchids are my favorite flowers (in no small part due to the fact that I love purple) and dawn to symbolize the coming of a new day.

//also occasionally i make accounts under the name labellepoubelle, which is french for 'the beautiful trashcan,' but we don't talk about this fact//

As a sidenote, I've never changed my Wattpad username, and I don't really plan on doing so, either. c:

2. Favorite book?

3. What's your icon and background?

I like purple.  I really like purple. cx

4. What type of books do you write?
As of now, currently fanfiction~!  I do have original works and the like, but angst/slight fluff fanfics have my heart, and I think I'm too shy to ever post anything original here, aha~  Besides that, I'm actually a co-author to upwards of four other original books being written by my friend, and they're all amazing!  I'm still so happy that she liked my input and even gave me that credit uWu ;u; She currently doesn't have her works posted, but if she ever does, I'll be sure to (spam you) - I mean tell you all c:

5. Recommend 3 books.
I recommend any and all works by the authors listed above!  (Yes there's more than three but I can't pick,,, they're all so gorgeous ahh)

6. Secret about your Wattpad?
I have 58 drafts.
Not as in chapters for stories.
As in, 58 unpublished books.
The number will only continue to rise. cx

7. Tag some people.
Considering I spammed people up above, I will spare the agony of doing that here cx If you would like to do this tag, I definitely recommend it~!  It's really fun c:

With love, 
   - Petri ♥
