Author has written 34 stories for Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, X-Men, Angel, Firefly, and Supernatural. I was born in 1971 and I've been writing and drawing ever since I was able to. I've had no formal training in either one, but they are both my greatest outlets and greatest loves. I started writing fanfic in 1998, centering around the X-Men comic book, specifically my favorite two, Gambit and Rogue. My X-Men stuff tends to be Claremont-ian era in nature. Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Angel the Series fic is my main love these days, though I am trying to finish my X-Men epic (and haven't given up!). Faith, Angel and Spike tend to be my favorites to write. I'm an avid reader and dedicated writer who loves character change and growth in all its many forms, whether it falls in the genre of horror or action or romance or anything, really. Dark and light, hopeful and somber, I love anything that resonates with the human spirit. I attempt to touch that spirit in each of the characters in all of my stories while still giving the excitement and adventure that comes along with being a hero (or villain). Feedback is adored and treasured, and attempted to be answered in most cases! I love constructive criticism as well as praise. I'm always eager to hear what people have to say. Currently I'm trying to updates my favorites list. If you're not there, be patient. I tend to get bored updating lists, but I'll get there eventually. You can find ALL my fanfic, including those stories that cannot be archived on ff.net due to restrictions, archived at my homepage, above. | |||||||
