Excerpts

Sex:

Often as possible with my husband (and Walter Skinner in my head!)

What was your first experience with fanfic?

Buying Star Trek fanzines in what seemed like the only shop in the UK that sold them, about 20 years ago.

What was your first encounter with X-Files fanfic?

I found X-Files fanfic when I stumbled over the whole concept of dedicated web-pages, by complete accident while learning how to use the ‘net. Blew me away, and I spent the next two years reading ‘til my eyes bled.

What was your first experience with SIS?

Finding it on the ‘net in the Library at my University and being terrified someone would walk behind me and see what smut I ws reading, instead of working, but being unable to turn it off!

What are your top five all-time favorite stories?:

Um... most of xanthe's stuff, like the ‘Sub' series, Crush, Missing Link, Sally Bradstreet's ‘Day' series, Surrender, there are just so many! I enjoy slash as well as het, so my reading opportunities are doubled. Particularly fond of humorous stories.

Is there anything else that you would like to say?

Skinnerfic in all it's wonderful forms has given me such pleasure, it's simply amazing. I love reading the tales that all the talented authors come up with, there is so much quality stuff around, it's inspiring. I've made contact with people from many different countries - and how amazing is that!? Anyone that says fanfic is juvenile or pointless needs their head removing from their ass and pointed in the direction of SIS and all the other outstanding sites where Skinnerfic blossoms. Mitch ought to be proud! He's a continuing source of inspiration to many fevered imaginations across the globe.
