Bio

I am a twenty-something-ish hopeful romantic who has been writing fan fiction ever since I saw two sexy men with swords trying to behead each other on prime time tv. I thought to myself, 'Self, this idea has merit. But I'd tell the story more like this...' Hence the years of Highlander fiction, which gave way to The Sentinel, which blossomed into Magnificent 7 which naturally morphed into Lonesome Dove, which with no surprise to anyone gave birth to Firefly, the love of my writing life. Most recently I have been futzing around in the Lost 'verse, and am in danger of losing myself there. (all groan here) I have a degree in Creative writing and Classical history, which has helped me not at all career-wise, but has allowed me to spend hours upon countless hours musing over non-lucrative ways to expend my talent online in made-up universes of words. Yes, ladies and gents, I aspire to be the bottom of the geek food chain. But hey, at least we've all got each other, right? It's cozy here.
