Author has written 13 stories for How I Met Your Mother, Ugly Betty, and As the World Turns. I'm currently working on an MFA. I'm mostly a reader of fanfic, not a writer. Now and then I try my hand. My ships vary quite a bit. I'm currently most into: Luke/Noah (As the World Turns) ...I generally prefer fics that portray how characters initially get together-- the more angst, the better. I don't like it to be too easy. | |||||||
