Author has written 29 stories for Castle, NCIS, Highlander, and Defiance. I used to write when I had quite a bit less gray hair on my head. Was even the president of my campus literary guild (Mohawk Valley CC's Quill & Scroll 1994-1996) but hadn't written much since then until I discovered this little show on ABC named Castle. I was first entranced by the episode "Kill Shot" and then decided I had to see all of it so I mainlined castle for a week watching seasons 1-3 back to back on You Tube. Following that, on February 10th, I joined a Castle fan site called "The 12th" (maybe you've heard of it) Shortly after that I was making fan vids (something I swore I would never do) I am an unashamed Castle/Beckett shipper, and a closet Lanie/Esposito shipper. Other shows I've liked over the years whose characters may show up in my crossovers: Miami Vice I prefer my vampires of the non-sparkly variety as Bram Stoker intended. (Sorry Nerwen, it had to be said) As long as Castle keeps putting out episodes, I'll be here. | |||||||
