Author has written 38 stories for Indiana Jones, Lord of the Rings, Moulin Rouge, Sherlock Holmes, Ninja Turtles, and Disney. Overdue updates. What's changed? Um . . . I'm 27 now. Currently a medical insurance claims investigator where I get to put my M.A. in literature to good use. Really! No, not really. I'm still a Michigander at heart though my body now resides in Wisconsin. Fandoms: I love Sherlock Holmes (had a crush on Dr. Watson for half my life), Indiana Jones, Lord of the Rings books and movies (Billy Boyd's Pippin is my precioussssss . . . ), the Ninja Turtles (Mikey's the best, Don and Leo tie for second), Buffy the Vampire Slayer, L.M. Montgomery, Disney movies, Back to the Future (Michael J. - what a fox!), and Star Trek (TOS, TNG, and recently DS9 and Voyager. NOT Enterprise.) Plus various other '90s TV shows that have, at best, a cult following. Pet Peeves: bad grammar/spelling, stories with lack of spaces between paragraphs, stories left forever unfinished (yes, yes, I'm guilty! I admit it!), and Mary Sues. | |||||||
