Author has written 30 stories for UC: UnderCover, Mummy, Gundam Wing/AC, Poltergeist: the Legacy, Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, Magnificent Seven, James Bond, Star Wars, Misc. Movies, and National Treasure. I'm in my thirties. I've been writing fanfiction since I was a teenager, starting with Captain Power and the Soldiers and the Future. My more recent fandoms include Magnificent Seven, The Mummy movies, LOTR, National Treasure, and Gundam Wing, though I've been a Transformers fan since the beginning (1984). I've adored Sean Bean for years, and waited almost ten years to finally see him playing a good guy (our poor Boromir). I loved him in Troy (Odysseus rocks! Orlando who?), and in the Sharpe movies. Alec Trevelyan (Goldeneye) and Ian Howe (National Treasure) have both joined my 'bad boy brigade,' along with Gabriel van Helsing (his choice, not mine) and Luke in Dust. I'm sure there will be more additions. Sean Miller (Patriot Games) will not be among them. Messing with kids is a big no-no with me. . .no matter how gorgeous a man happens to be. Favorite actors aside from Sean Bean include: Oded Fehr; Dale Midkiff; Tim Dunigan; Hugh Jackman; Patrick Fitzgerald; Michael Biehn; Dylan Neal; Adam Baldwin; John Rhys-Davies; Ted King; Ron Perlman; Arnold Vosloo; Peter Cullen, Nathan Fillion; Derek de Lint; and Sean Connery. Honorable mention goes to Douglas Henshall (because at this point, I've only seen him as Nick Cutter in Primeval; Brian Drummond (voice of Zechs Merquise in Gundam Wing); Christian Bale; Gerard Butler (if only for his portrayal of Leonidas in 300), Daragh O'Malley: Ewan McGregor (if only for Obi-Wan Kenobi); and Jason Carter. I'm beginning to include Josh Duhamel in the first category, but I've only been able to watch him in Las Vegas when I'm home sick from work, and Will Lennox is one of my favorite human characters in the live-action Transformers movies (he and Robert Epps). Favorite actresses include: Patricia Velazquez; Laurie Holden; Kristin Lehman; Cote de Pablo; Robin Christopher; Nancy Lee Grahn; Summer Glau; Grace Park; Mira Furlan; Gina Torres; and Famke Janssen. Honorable mention goes to Colleen Rennison and Abigail Stone (because they broke my heart as Senephra in the Doppleganger episode of Poltergeist: The Legacy and as Ebrill in The Dark respectively). In addition to my fanfiction stories listed below, I'm also in the process of writing several original novels, which include: a story based on my experiences working in a warehouse, Backlash; a re-interpretation of monster movies (a la Godzilla), focusing on the lives of ordinary people whose lives are changed or destroyed by a rampaging monster, Ordinary Lives, and finally Anytime, Anywhere, imagining the consequences if a massive earthquake hit the Southeast in the present (1811-1812 earthquake along the New Madrid fault, and an 1886 earthquake in South Carolina. . .there is historical precedence). That's not taking into account the various and sundry stories that never take root. My favorite writers? That tends to change, according to what I'm reading at the time. Perennial favorites are Guy Gavriel Kay (my writing hero), Lynn Kurland, Jude Deveraux, James Rollins, and Maggie Shayne. I listen to music while I'm writing...it helps me to focus. Soundtracks are my favorites, especially the LOTR soundtracks, the scores for both Transformers movies, 300, and Indiana Jones. I also like Alkaemy, Celtic Woman, Cusco, Daughtry, Clannad, The Celtic Tenors, Nickelback, Miriam Stockley, 3 Doors Down, and David Arkenstone. What provides inspiration for my stories? A better question would be, what doesn't! My job, newspaper stories, magazine stories, people I encounter. My nieces and nephews are additional contributors (a grand total of thirteen between my immediate family and the children of my dearest friends). A number of the children featured in my stories are patterned after them (for instance, Lacey in Champions is patterned after my now-three year old niece, while Annie Howe in Heart Bound in Chains is a composition of my twelve year old niece and her eight year old sister). I'm hoping to adopt a child sometime in the future, and once that happens, I'm sure I'll find quite a bit of inspiration in that. I do a lot of mental plotting while I'm driving and when I'm in the shower. Partly because I'm either not focusing on anything in particular or focusing only on the road. Somewhat to my consternation, I'm discovering that Nickelback is a great source of inspiration for one-shots. Their most recent CD Dark Horse has already provided a one-shot, which will be written and posted once I figure out where to put it (Just to Get High is the song in question) The Gwethil, of which I'm a member, is also a wonderful source of inspiration. (blows kiss to my brother and sisters in the Gwethil) Several of my stories are on hiatus, as those muses have gone on vacation, but I haven't abandoned them. In the meantime, there are other stories coming up: Beware the Fury, a combination of Troy canon and the original Iliad, with a bit of my own 'verse thrown in; Crossroads, a crossover/fusion between Captain Power and Sharpe; Worlds Apart, my own personal sequel to the 2007 Transformers movie (and part of a universe which will eventually incorporate elements of the Revenge of the Fallen storyline); and a long-simmering crossover between Equilibrium and Firefly/Serenity. | |||||||||||
