Author has written 49 stories for West Wing, and CSI. Hey! So yea, I am twenty something. I'm a former teacher and I'm now studying to be a school media specialist (glorified term for school librarian). I like writing fanfic. I enjoy watching 24, CSI, House, American Idol, A Haunting, The Mentalist and West Wing. My hobbies include writing (!), reading, and mastering Guitar Hero. I love to hear from people who read my stories, so feel free to send me a pm or review. I mostly write Snickers fictions, and especially fics with Nick and Sara as parents b/c I think they'd be awesome at it. I don't have the patience to wait for a beta-read because I'm always too excited about posting, so I apologize in advance if you find stupid errors in my fics. Don't forget to check out some of my coauthored stories under other profiles: "Sweet Little Sixteen" - with MrsEads "Symphony of Change" - with LostLadyKnight "She Has Your Eyes" - with LostLadyKnight My favorite ships are: CSI: Nick/Sara; Nick/OC (Nick is by far my favorite character. What's not to like?); Warrick/Catherine (thanks to LostLadyKnight for her influence) West Wing: Josh/Donna; Sam/Ainsley 24: Tony/Michelle; Jack/Audrey; Jack/Teri Things I like: Getting from A to B in my '98 Dodge Neon, telling my cats they're pussies and marveling at their kitty beauty, impressing people with my knowledge of the Dewey Decimal System, using the word 'preposterous', procrastinating, reconnecting with old pals on facebook, dreaming of making out and doing naughty things with Nick Stokes, pointing out grammatical errors, springtime, calling deserving people skanks, becoming a master of library science, overachieving, sleeping in, kittens, using random British phrases, reading YA books, quoting movies at opportune times, tormenting my cats with a laser pointer, going to Borders and Barnes & Noble, being a space nerd and watching anything to do with NASA, Mountain Dew (it's my copilot), Cadbury's chocolate, Monty Python, childish humor, buying clothes, our president-elect Barack Obama, singing out of tune with the radio blaring, cowriting with LadyBug07, LostLadyKnight, and MrsEads when she's not busy being Canadian. I like oxygen. It keeps me alive. Things I dislike: Paris Hilton, people who can't distinguish they're/their/there and it's/its, incorrect use of apostrophes (especially using them to pluralize!), stories about the CSI characters in high school, generic reviews, over-giggly tween and teen girls who act like idiots and think others are somehow entertained, driving in freezing rain, people who say ATM machine and PIN number, forwarded messages, scooping cat poo, chatspeak in fanfics, mean people, homophobes, rednecks, President Bush, people who call their daughters 'princess' and then wonder why they're spoiled brats, winter, overly religious people, people who put your story on alert but never ever review, authors who demand a certain number of reviews before posting the next chapter, close-minded conservatives, Nick/Greg Slash, GSR. Favorites books: To Kill a Mockingbird, Divine Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood, Twilight, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-time Indian, The Christopher Killer, Bloom, When it Happens, Mr. Pusskins, Wicked Lovely, Skippyjon Jones, The Witch of Blackbird Pond, The Giver, Team Moon. Favorite quotes: My personal writing philosophy from "Finding Forrester" - Your first draft, you write with your heart; your second draft, you write with your head. From DarkDreamer05's profile (I totally agree!): "I have a theory that writers don't actually want to write books, they want to read them, but discovering that they are unavailable to be read, because they are unwritten, they write them." Alan Furst "And at a time when she was cut off from everything she knew - family, home, friends - writing was the thread of continuity. It was what she had always done." - Ian McEwan | |||||||||
