Min, also known as Min Heng and elyvern, is a fanfiction writer, fan artist, and reccer. They first got into fandom in the mid-1990s.[3]
Dex Farkin writes in a review of Min's X-Men fanfiction: "Min has a lyric style of writing, a sense of Dickens meshed with Shelley. Her charming emotional descriptions are the true strength of the work and, unlike most young writers, she has a definite and controlled handle on emotions."[4]
