Author has written 10 stories for Stargate: Atlantis.

My name is Karen. I was born, raised, schooled, and worked in Lincoln, NE until I moved to Colorado in the summer of 2005. Now I live in Arizona as of winter 2010. I'll always be a Husker Football fan no matter who the coach is or how badly we play. Such is life. I’m currently unemployed and that’s how I found this web-site. I was bored of housework and job hunting and I turned to the internet for some distraction.

A note regarding my story Hypothesis from 9-16-09. Many of my reviewers requested a follow-up piece on how John reintergrated with the team and with Atlantis. Sadly to say there will NOT be a follow-up piece. My sincere apology to those who requested more.

8-24-10 - taking a break from writing. I can't seem to concentrate. So I thought if I went away from it for a while that I might just get over my writers block when I return. Cross your fingers this works. I really like my story 'Bini' and really want to finish it. I'll keep you posted on further developments.

3-17-2011 - Turns out my little hiatus from writing turned into MOVING to Arizona. Remind me next time (I hope there is never a next time) to win the lottery first and PAY someone to pack and unpack the trillion boxes that go into a move. There just is no end to the boxes, to the cleaning of everything before its put away, or the many decisions that go into deciding where it goes or how to arrange it in the first place. I'm exhausted!


1. Dumb Luck » reviews
If it wasn't for Dumb Luck, John wouldn't have any luck at all. Includes David Sheppard. Set after season 5. Spoilers possible. Some bad language. Story was beta'd, all remaining errors are my doing. Special thanks to ValleyA for sparking my muse.

7. When It Rains It Pours » reviews
John has one of those days. Rain, common cold and a mudslide add up to an intersting day. This story has three possible endings. Let me know what you think. No Beta, all mistakes are mine.

John was right, the price paid was too high. John is hurt, but overcomes the challenge he faces. Shep Whump in the worst way.

10. Conquering Adversities » reviews
A Continuation or sequel to 'Three for the Price of Two'. I recommend you read 'Three for the Price of Two' first. Accidents seem to follow John. Daedalus drops in early. A trap and Skiing?
