Author has written 10 stories for Lord of the Rings, Horatio Hornblower, and Master and Commander. Fanfic writer since 1999, not counting never-published childhood scribbles. Everything I have net-published is out there under my real name, if you are looking. I started out writing Starsky and Hutch fanfic, then ended writing rather a lot of fanfic for The Sentinel. All of that is on my own website. About a year and a half ago I started writing Horatio Hornblower fanfiction, some of which is archived here. My most recent dabblings include Lord of the Rings fanfic and Patrick O'Brian fanfic. As far as what I like to read here... Currently, I am mainly reading LoTR fic and Patrick O'Brian fic, though I do poke around in other categories from time to time. I enjoy friendship stories, both angsty and lighthearted. Slash puzzles me, for the most part, but doesn't offend me. I dislike most romances (unless they bring sufficient angst and tragedy to the protagonists) and despise Mary Sues. I am a stickler for good grammar, accurate spelling, and polished writing styles, and will quit reading after the first paragraph if a story is full of errors. If the one-sentence summary is poorly spelled or badly punctuated, I won't touch the story itself. | |||||||||
