Author has written 13 stories for Bartimaeus Trilogy, Animorphs, Danny Phantom, Charlie Bone, Margaret Peterson Haddix, StarTrek: The Original Series, Power of Five series, Hetalia - Axis Powers, and Doctor Who. Important! I've been writing since I can remember and always trying to improve. I tend towards science-fiction, urban fantasy and humor, often shoving them together a la Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett, who are probably my two biggest inspirations. I enjoy what is probably a slightly odd mix of media, including: TV shows: Classic Doctor Who and spinoff The Sarah Jane Adventures, The A-Team, Blake's Seven, Star Trek (Original Series, Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager), The X-Files and its spinoff The Lone Gunmen, Red Dwarf, Mystery Science Theater 3000, and Phineas and Ferb. Authors: Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, P.G. Wodehouse, Eoin Colfer, Anthony Horowitz, James White, Arthur Conan Doyle, Naomi Novik, and others. Also books including Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card, Shatterpoint by Matthew Stover, and the Seems series by John Hulme and Michael Wexler. I also enjoy radio dramas, both old and new: On the older side, Our Miss Brooks, X Minus One, Fibber McGee and Molly, Yours Truly Johnny Dollar, The Navy Lark, The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again; on the newer side, Cabin Pressure, Absolute Power, Old Harry's Game, Nebulous, and the Doctor Who dramas and their spinoffs, including Jago and Litefoot. I try to be as helpful as possible in my reviews, but I assure you I don't flame. I'm guilty of a bit of sugar-coating, but I really do try to be honest. If you review me, I will try and review you, if you have stories up for a fandom I know about. I don't review for fandoms I don't know simply because I can't give good enough criticism where characterisation is concerned. If you review me, I will at least reply. People put lots of emphasis on how good it feels to get a review saying their writing is appreciated, but I think it's also great to know that your feedback is appreciated just as much. I also try to answer questions posed in reviews and address concrit if it's given. I also do beta work; check my beta profile for fandoms I will work with, and if you think I can help you, please feel free to PM me.
