Author has written 55 stories for X-Files, Lost, Friday Night Lights, Homefront, Nashville, and Early Edition.

I love to "exercise" my writing skills by creating fanfiction based on television shows. I appreciate how fanfiction enables writers to practice developing characters in-depth. I'm also a writer in "real life," which is to say I've written five books, had three published, and managed to make a living from none. The royalties keep me in wine.

Currently, "Friday Night Lights" is my writing obsession, but I have written multiple fanfics for "Lost" and a stray one here and there for other shows.

Your comments are always appreciated and make the hobby of writing fanfiction rewarding. They also spur me to write more, so please DO let me know if you have read and enjoyed one of my works.
