Mom of 3 young adults; doctoral student; teacher; spouse; professional. I have traveled the world, lived on 2 continents, and in 6 states. My third child drew the photo I used.

Started writing fan fiction as a result of

1) AYITL just felt wrong for the character Rory. By 32 she should not be acting like she is developmentally 22, not with her academic achievements, positive impact on Logan, and being "Mom" to her mother for many years. Yes, she makes mistakes and can be in a slump professionally due to the changes happening in the world of print journalism. ASP could have kept those last 4 words, but not in an I'm helpless need my Mommy way. So, for the character, I return to the strong Rory from the original season - proves how people are wrong - valedictorian at Chiton; rises to the challenge - you jump, I jump; fights back to lead the way - editor of Yale even after taking a semester off.

2) I write too many technical papers for my doctoral studies and need a creative outlet.
