Author has written 7 stories for Bones.

Hello, I'm grc73, just survived a "milestone" birthday *cough cough*; married to a lovely guy, with two still quite small children and I live in a town just outside London, England. I do a job I love (most of the time), it's all a juggle but I wouldn't have it any other way!

I've been lurking on FanFiction.Net for a while, almost entirely for reading the Bones fanfic, but I thought I should sign up to eventually post my own meager attempts but also to review (or rather support) some of the awesome works I've read so far. If anyone is willing to beta for me please, I'm still very much a novice and would appreciate some guidance.

Fave Shows: With two kids under seven and a full time job, I don't have time for a lot of TV these days, but... Bones, also Buffy, Angel (the David Boreanaz connection is a co-incidence, honestly!) Dr Who, Torchwood, Peep Show, Gavin and Stacey, Spaced, Homeland, The Office (UK and US), Glee and New Girl (we want Jick! - or is it Niss? :D) - but mainly Bones. I still have't watched that West Wing box set...

Sport: For football (a.k.a "soccer" for you non-Europeans) I'm a lifelong Arsenal fan but I also follow lower league teams Barnet (my local club growing up) and Stevenage (my local club now), I also love Rugby Union (Saracens) and Cricket (Middlesex) and my national team, England in everything. I also randomly like AFL (that's Aussie Rules Football) and I'm an Essendon fan.

Music: I like to think my music tastes are fairly eclectic! Some current faves in no particular order: Neil Finn and Crowded House, Sara Bareilles, Kelly Clarkson, Sigur Ros, Muse, Foo Fighters, Muse, Aqualung, Chemical Brothers, Underworld, Radiohead, Green Day, The Ting Tings, Kasabian, Kings of Leon, Astrud Gilberto. I also like a bit of opera and classical music and some Jazz, nice.

Films: I am a hopeless romantic... When Harry Met Sally, Manhattan, Annie Hall (and most Woody Allen), A Lot like Love, Sureshank Redemption, The Green Mile, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Grease, any of the Christopher Guest mockumentaries, but especially Spinal Tap and Best in Show... oh my brain's gone to fluff now.

Books: Can you believe on a FF site I forgot books! I'm a fan of modern classics - for example - Steinbeck, Irving, Hornby, Coupland, Orwell. Lee's "To Kill a Mockingbird" is my all time fave. I loved Harry Potter but think 50 Shades is a pile of poo. I read a lot of non-fic too, especially history and science.

Fave Bones Episodes: The Woman in the Sand, Stargazer in a Puddle, Santa in the Slush, The Passenger in the Oven, Double Trouble in the Panhandle (I love 'em undercover!), The End in the Beginning, The Parts of the Sum... and anything where B&B are all over each other like a rash - thank you S7 :)

I'm a BB Shipper through and through. I'm afraid I come from the "Just get them together already, I WILL STILL WATCH IF YOU CHUCK 'EM IN TO A RELATIONSHIP TOGETHER" crew - PURRRLEEEEEEZE Mr Hanson! I am now a very happy bunny. Except for the Brennan being framed and leaving part.

Fave Jeffersonian Intern: Vincent Nigel-Murray. Such a sweetie. RIP. Wendell a close second.

I totally love B&B slush. And smut, as long as it's well written.
