Author has written 27 stories for NCIS, Law and Order: CI, Pitch Black / Riddick, Grey's Anatomy, Bones, Superman, CSI: New York, Tin Man, Medical Investigation, and Fringe.

I am (hence the pen name) from Texas. I am a Historian by trade, and a TV junkie by choice. I am married and a new mother ( so the downtime has been severely curtailed, dealing with a new baby) I work, I split what little down time I have between jogging, teaching riding lessons, various in-sundry everyday duties that we all get stuck doing, along with trying to enjoy some creative activities like writing, singing, making vocal recordings and keeping up with my varied TV show menu. I've taken a couple of graduate level fiction writing classes, and I hope they've paid off. But I'm still absurdly thankful for spell-check.

I'm extremely picky about fanfic, because I like reading stories where the authors stay as true to the characters from the shows as possible. I think fanfiction should be an extension of the universe that we fell in love with on screen, and not staying in show-canon or character is an injustice to the established characters and their creators. I do not suffer the trite, the immature, the Mary Sue or the extravagantly out of canon. I do not suffer the poorly written, mistake-riddled, or the no-plot-wonders. I like wit, satire, angst and tension - wickedly accurate characterizations - a mystery that twists and surprises or a one-shot that leaves me thinking. Have I mentioned that I'm picky?

I have been dubbed the Mistress of Tease. I'm not a "fluff" writer. I like tension you can chew on! If there is tension, angst...all manner of unresolved sexual/romantic frustrations...then Alamo is a happy woman. That said, I do like romance...it just has to be the unrequited kind. But when it comes to happy endings - well, I tend to write for the "hopeful ending". Not necessarily resolved, yet open for anything to come.

I enjoy a multitude of fandoms, from crime drama, fantasy, to Sci/Fi (as evident from my authored stories). My tastes change and vary quite frequently, which usually ends in me starting a new story before I'm done with others.

I love in-depth reviews. Constructive criticism is always appreciated. If you have something you like, or didn't, about my stories, well then by george tell me!

What I'm currently laboring on?: Any FRINGE, THE MENTALIST or LIE TO ME plotbunnies that sit still long enough for me to vet out.

Coming soon?: FRINGE, THE MENTALIST, LIE TO ME (my newest TV obsessions) stories
