Lynnenne is a fan writer best known for her Buffyverse works.

"I came late to the Jossverse, and even later to fandom. I started watching “Buffy” in Season 5; discovered fanfiction in Season 7; and didn’t start actively contributing until after “Angel” had finished its run. I thought it would be tough, breaking into such a well established community. But everyone has been welcoming and supportive, and made me feel right at home. I’m very grateful to have found such a terrific online community.

My favourite authors are Kita, Romany, Dodyskin, Doyle, Josey, Alice, and Redbrickrose. Each has a different style, but the one thing they all have in common is that they can make the language dance. As someone whose writing style is lean and sparse, I admire and envy writers who can grasp the richness and fullness of the English language, and make it bend to their will.

I once interviewed a novelist who said, “Writing is like banging your head against a brick wall. It feels good when you stop.” That pretty much describes my feelings about it. I don’t really write for fun. I write because I get an idea stuck in my head, and it won’t let me have any peace until I get it down on paper. I guess that’s what they call “inspiration.” Or maybe it’s obessive-complusive disorder. It’s a bizarre thing, this thing we do. I thank god for every reader who enjoys it. They’re the ones who make it worthwhile."
