Fandoms
umbrella half has been a writer in the due South fandom since 2007 and also plays in 6 Degrees of Canada, having written several Duck/Dan (Wilby Wonderful) snippets and one Billy/OMC (Hard Core Logo) snippet to date.
Writing style
China Shop describes umbrella half's writing as:
- "[…] full of thoughts moving just below the surface. Fraser yearns but can't say so; Kowalski is physical and often in movement; Duck tamps down his emotions, struggling to find appropriate words. There are vivid descriptions and details that bring the scenes to life, sharp images and moments, and some wonderful turns of phrase. I especially enjoy umbrella half's dialogue, oblique conversations that show so much more than they tell. Things are not always easy or convenient or resolved."[1]
Notable Works
due South
- At Last, of Course (Fraser/Kowalski) . A lovely tentative, stop-and-start first time.
- Odd and Counter-Intuitive (Fraser/Kowalski). A snippet that packs an emotional punch and also has some gorgeous description.
Wilby Wonderful
- Balance and Warmth (Duck/Dan). Duck is feeling his way into the relationship, taking time to adjust.
