I'm 30 and live in Northern Ireland, but was born and raised during my early years just outside Philadelphia.
I have been something of a perpetual student, with a background in theatre, film and make-up artistry. I'm now taking night classes in fiction writing.
Writing is my first passion (followed closely by filmmaking). I used to write poetry before switching to prose several years ago. I have also written around 10 theatrical plays and two screenplays (one of which I made into a short film in 2004).
I started writing fanfiction before I had even heard of the term. I wrote a fic for Angel one snowy week back in 2001 (entitled "Kathy"), and didn't attempt another one until late in 2004/early 2005, when I wrote my first CSI story ("Cold Vengeance")
For CSI, I'm mainly a GSR-shipper, and most of my stories try to straddle the ship/case file divide (with a couple of fluffier pieces thrown in for good measure). I'm also into slash - particularly Sara/Sofia and Nick/Greg.
In the Angel/Buffy-verse, I was originally an Angel/Buffy shipper (who wasn't?) but I am now a committed Angel/Cordy shipper, so expect my fics to lean that way.
In terms of writing influences - I'm a big fan of the classics: Virginia Woolf, Oscar Wilde, Jane Austin, the Bronte Sisters; as well as modern crime writers: especially Patricia Cornwell, Linda Fairsteinand Tami Hoag. A bit eclectic, but thats me...
