Author has written 43 stories for Harry Potter, Holby City, Lord of the Rings, ER, Pirates of the Caribbean, and NCIS. Until August 2012, I'd not updated for quite a while. For that I apologise, but I had a lot of uni stuff (academic and extracurricular) to do. I've just started a Creative Writing MA at Exeter, where I did my undergrad, and I've recently got back into the fanfic world. Maybe I'll even get round to finishing the sequel to Reaching Maturity...! However, I am likely to be slow sometimes as I have to live with ME and fibromyalgia, which aren't fun in the slightest and cause me a lot of pain, fatigue and brain-fog, so please bear with me. I also have Asperger's, so be warned - I can be quite blunt! I'm a 28 y/o Catholic Christian with an English Lit degree at Exeter Uni (I also found out during my second year there that I'm dyslexic; this amuses me greatly). I play flute and clarinet. I want to (eventually) become a British Sign Language interpreter. I still live in Exeter and don't plan to go anywhere else. I'm a huge fan of Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, ER, Pirates of the Caribbean, NCIS, anything written by Catherine Fisher, and Burnley FC. I also love badminton, and play wheelchair badminton these days due to the fibro. I am annoyed that it isn't a Paralympic sport. Despite having spent, in total, 5 years as a student, I don't like going out clubbing and getting drunk. I prefer ceilidh-dancing, most folky stuff, larping, D&D and spending time with my (very insane) friends. I do my best to respond to all reviews, where possible. I'm also a respected beta-reader. I'm a fan of a large number of romantic pairings, and I really can't be bothered to list them all right now - although if there are any other Draco/Hannah shippers out there, I would like to hear from you! NCIS has kind of taken over my life in recent months. I think it's my latest Asperger obsession...! While attempting with my friend to work out the exact number of days that the Quest for the Ring took: "I can't believe I'm being this geeky! - wait, no, actually I can." (me; this is now my quote for my 08-09 TolkSoc stash) "Nobody tosses a dwarf." (Gimli, FotR) And the continuity in TTT at Helm's Deep. "What does your heart tell you?" (Aragorn, RotK) Advice: "You can do anything you set your mind to" (Eminem, Lose Yourself) "The only thing to fear is fear itself." Franklin D. Roosevelt | |||||||||
