Author has written 26 stories for Scarlet Pimpernel, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Pirates of the Caribbean, Legend, Lord of the Rings, Brothers Grim, King Kong, Shadow, Boondock Saints, Jekyll, Doctor Who, Life on Mars, Omega Factor, and Devil's Whore.

Okay, I guess I should finally get around to updating this stupid bio. The previous version was at least three years old, and in the time since then everything single thing that I said about myself (not that I had said all that much) has been rendered untrue.

So here are, in no particular order, things I feel you should know about me:

Don't bother using the e-mail address listed at the beginning of most of my stories. That account is dead, and I'm not going to revive it. Anything you have to say about my stories can be said through the "Review" button

I do plan on eventually finishing all of the "in-progress" stories posted here. It may not happen in the next several years, but I'll get to them some day. The only possible exception to this is "Breaking Fast," which isn't really thrilling me anymore. However, if I do decide to abandon it completely, I'll at least say as much and post the outline of how the rest of the story was supposed to have gone.

I am not going to try to make any of my old Pirates of the Caribbean fic compliant with the canon of the later movies. I had toyed with the idea after Dead Man's Chest was released, but At World's End pretty much killed it. As far as I'm concerned, "The Adventures of James Norrington, Pirate" went AU at the end of Curse of the Black Pearl. Norrington never became obsessed with hunting Sparrow and never resigned his commission. He is going to sail through a rather nasty storm, but he's the one who gets lost in it, not his ship and crew, because that has been my plan from the very beginning. As much as I liked Scruffington in DMC, my Pirate!Norrington is a different man and I'm going to stand by him. Isla de Muerta never sank. Barbossa, as much as I like him, never came back from the dead. Will Turner is still a blacksmith, and Elizabeth has mostly grow out of her "pirates are the coolest thing ever!" phase. The Flying Dutchman is nothing more than a myth. Davy Jones and his locker are just a figures of speech, and Cutler Beckett choked to death on a peach pit when he was five years old. To a lesser extent, all of this also applies to "One Large Banana," but that's silly comedy instead of drama, so it isn't as important. I'm not saying that I will never write fic dealing with DMC or AWE, because someday I might. However, don't hold your breath.

That's all I have to say right now. I'll add more as I think of it.
