Once more into the breach. Profile revamp, hooooooo!

I'm a student in my early twenties, born and raised in the Intermountain West of the United States, interested mostly in films made before color and television shows that went off-air before I started grade school. I've been writing fanfiction for most of my life, publishing it online for almost nine years now, and have been loudly proclaiming the fact to anyone who'll listen, online and off, for four years and change. I'm proud of what I do here, I'm proud of the stories I tell. I'm a Textual Poacher, unabashedly so, and when I post my 50th story here, I fully intend to bake a cake and throw a party.

I write mostly oneshots and almost entirely gen, in all sorts of fandoms. Currently I'm writing Hannibal Smith drabbles for the fanfic100 community on LiveJournal; some of the longer ones I'll post separately, and the rest can be found in "A Spot of Drabble Rousing".

From the very start, I've been posting a poem-of-the-update here. And as I hate to break tradition:

Autumn
The leaves are falling, falling as if from far up,
as if orchards were dying high in space.
Each leaf falls as if it were motioning "no."

And tonight the heavy earth is falling
away from all other stars in the loneliness.

We're all falling. This hand here is falling.
And look at the other one. It's in them all.

And yet there is Someone, whose hands
infinitely calm, are holding up all this falling.

-- Rainier Maria Rilke (translated by Robert Bly)
