Hey! Thanks for stopping by. I've updated my profile because my crappy attitude about HEA's was freaking some people out. I definitely love an HEA! Please don't be scared of me! :D

That said:

My name is Aja (pronounced "Asia") and I live in Cali. Formerly a lurker. I love all things ExB. Honestly, the Twilight series was OK, but then I SOMEHOW got sucked into all the fan fiction and I LOVE it. It's like playing with paper dolls, these gorgeous likeable characters can be dressed up in anything you can draw. And then, of course, they can be undressed. ;D

My personal tastes run to the macabre. I love well done angst, the slow burn, the unrequited, the misunderstood. I like fiesty heroines and reformed assholes. *See High Fidelity

I write steak. Thick and messy and bloody and partially raw and heavy. It must be true because the ksdfjalksdjfcredible WhatsMyNom said so. We don't argue with her because - have you read The Best I Ever Had? 'Nuff said.

I am on twitter (at)ajapersuasia - Come yammer at me. Come shake your head at some of the things I tweet. #IrrelevantNonsense

My stories, in brief:

Someone Like You

Someone Like You has a few song recs. I highly recommend all early Doris Day, particularly "Someone Like You." Anything from that era would be a solid fit. Dean Martin and Peggy Lee are quite nice. This is not a happy story - you have been warned!

High Fidelity

PLEASE NOTE: This is a mature story about messed up individuals. They do sketchy things and are likely going to hurt each other, more than once. It's my first multi-chap so bear with me and thanks for reading!

The Black Queen Vignettes

I started this witfit when I lost my job... I didn't realize I would land another, better one so dang fast. But - because I still have this story burning like crazy in my brain... I will be writing The Black Queen starting in May.

El Camino

What can I say. I am overwhelmed. Thank you.
