Cleome45 is a surly old bat (one-half Secular Humanist/one-half Situationist) who lives in the United States (West Coast) and who loves wasting her time on this kind of nonsense. In addition, she gardens, obsesses sometimes about politics, does Yoga (but not often enough) and she adores her two cats.

Enough said? You want more. Okay.

I'm a music junkie of long-standing, so it's rare for me to not have a particular tune in mind when I'm working on a story. However, since A) This site officially frowns on the posting of song lyrics and B) I usually find them to be an unwelcome interruption to a story proper, I set up an LJ for them. So if you're curious to hear the source of a story/chapter title, just click here. (No you don't have to join, sign, or buy anything. Let me know if you were inspired to pick up any of the tunes, though. That would make my day.)

Good music gets me through every time, as does well-written fic. If you've written some lately, you've helped keep me going-- even if I don't always have time to tell you. Cheers.

My current avatar was made by Amarin Rose, who has lots of fic available here and also on LJ. She'll probably lend you an avatar or two from her impressive assortment if you ask her nicely. :)

Brother/sister writers, if any articles could save our collective bacon, they would be here and here. Now if I could just remember to get out and find a cheap copy of this somewhere. Y'know, just in case I wanted to get up and turn off the computer sometime.

Summer-Fall 2009: Well, my one-year anniversary of being back in Legion of Superheroes fandom passed without commemoration. It was also my one-year anniversary on this site, more or less. Things have been busy, and I admit to being in "turtle mode" while I work on the current story. It seems like there's a lot of intriguing new fic out there that I never have time to do more than skim. One of these days, though...

If you checked out a fic, if you added it to your Favorites List, or if you left comments/critiques, sincere thanks. Stop by again soon, okay?
