Author has written 28 stories for Gilligan's Island, Sherlock Holmes, and Sherlock.

Gee, the description says, "Interact with author callensensei," so I guess I'd better put something here for folks to interact with!

You've probably already deduced that I'm fairly obsessed with Gilligan's Island. Add to that Sherlock Holmes (and the brilliant new modern Sherlock), Narnia, Jeeves and Wooster, anime (from old classics like Starblazers to new classics like Inu Yasha), Zorro, Rawhide and Eastwood's spaghetti westerns, and travelling anywhere these wonderful stories take place.

Like one of my favourite fanfic authors, KCS, I'm a firm believer that knowing your canon inside and out is the best prerequisite to writing good fanfic. Our readers are people who know their canon too, and it's wonderful (not to mention just a little daunting) to write for such a well informed audience. It's also wonderful to know that we aren't alone in our obsessions!

I'm not going to say much more about myself here, because if you're really keen to know more about me (and that's a pretty big if) my stories will tell you all about who I really am and what I truly value. I hope that wherever you're from and whatever faith you follow, you find something in these tales that speaks to you.
