Author has written 36 stories for Supernatural, and Farscape. A little bit about me! I love fantasy. I love submerging myself in things that have no bearing on real life. I started writing when I was about 12 and ... needless to say ... I'm not 12 any more. I've been at this for the past 30 years and I sure do know what I like. I read a lot too and give feedback when I really dig something. I abstain from giving feedback if I don't like something. Mainly because I may not like it, but others obviously do and that's fine. I don't need to add my two cents to the mix if it's not with a positive spin on it. I know how hurtful the wrong kind of comment can be (been there, done that) and I really don't think it helps anyone to be told that their story isn't up to par unless they specifically ask for it. That, after all, is what a Beta is for, right? :) Why do I write? Because I'm a hopeless romantic at heart? I don't know. I love it. It's like therapy to me. I do not make a living of it, which is fine by the way. I love to tell stories, love to delve into my imagination, and -- I admit it -- I'm a sucker for feedback. Yes, I love that pat on the back. I love it when people think my stuff is worth reading. I don't love it when people get derisive and lecture me about whatever. So don't do that. I have no patience for it. I do encourage feedback, though, good or bad. I'm just not in favor of flaming. What do I write? Fiction. I mainly seem to zero in on action, thrillers, sci-fi and horror, though. Right now, my big thing is Supernatural. I love the show, love the boys, love the entire cast and crew behind that show. They stimumlate my imagination and I adore that. It makes me think, makes me work that grey matter between my ears and that's always a good thing. I generally seem to zero in on the darker stuff and love to explore angsty and nasty reactions. It's a thrill to analyze how evil people think and make something of that. Since I've had issues with certain people over the content of my stories, I do feel that I need to explain a little bit. What I write may strike some as being religion-bashing or that I am an angry, hurt person for some reason (some people read too much into fantasy, it seems) and, just for the record, I'm as happy as a clam. I like what I do, I love my life, I am a generally happy and content person. I just have a mean-streak that comes out in my stories and that might give rise to some concern in certain people. In other words, my writing can be seen as anti-religious and, in essence, I guess it is. With something like Supernatural that's a bit more evident than with other genres, I guess, because the topic of this show is basically tip-toeing around religious aspects such as Heaven and Hell and God and the Devil. Let me just make it abundantly clear that I am not religious in any manner or form and I love to poke fun at religion and attempt to ... how shall I put this? ... bring my point of view across? Yeah, that's a good way to put it. It obviously gets a rise out of some people, so to those who feel stepped on by my at times anti-religious spin on things ... go read something else. You won't appreciate what I write and there is no way no how that I will change what I write if you gripe about it. It will only make it worse and more harsh. That said, I mainly do hurt/comfort. I do write certain stories that don't contain much violence, but that's rare. I like to get the shock-factor in there and I love to see the responses people have when I go totally overboard and shred my characters. Well ... they're not my characters, per se, are they? :) But you know what I mean. How often do I publish? Ooh, that's sporadic at best. Sometimes I'm very creative and post on an almost daily basis. At other times it takes a week or more before I post again. It all depends on my level of creativity and how much space Real Life offers me for pursuing my first, true love. There is nothing in this world that kills my creativity more than a bad review, by the way and by Bad Review I mean a 'stupid bad review', meaning something like "I hope this doesn't turn into religion bashing" or "I'm not going to read more if so-and-so doesn't get more attention" (Yes, I've had reviews like that and they suck the fun right out of writing). Other dribble If, by chance, you should stumble over some glaring typos or grammatical glitches, please feel free to direct my attention to it. I spellcheck my stuff and re-read it at regular intervals and always seem to stumble across typos etc. when I do and I do want this to be as correct as it can be, so don't hesitate. If you think I'm taking too long with an update, feel free to prod me with a stick if you feel like it. It sometimes motivates me to get the next chapter done. I will try to respond to any PMs I get as quickly as I can. Well, that's it from me. Go forth and read and I hope you enjoy it. | |||||
