Excerpts

I discovered on-line fandom about five minutes after I discovered the internet, back in the early 90's. A few years later I wrote my very first piece of fanfiction - a Voyager/DS9 crossover that is thankfully lost to the ages. It was probably around '95 or '96. Then I got distracted by grad school and didn't write again until 2002, when I started watching "Enterprise"....I've written in Enterprise, SG-1 and currently, the Strachey Mysteries.

I liked SG-1, but SGA has totally won my heart. I love that the characters aren't great big heroes. They're good people who they say and do dumb things and screw up and sometimes make a situation worse by simply being there. And, as a pairing, I adore John and Rodney. Fabulous chemistry. SGA fandom constantly delights me. I've been in it since the start, and it makes me happy to see new folks come in, to see them get caught up in the fun and produce wonderful fic and art and squee and make it a fun place to be.
