I now have a livejournal - not for any real purpose (and I'm not promising that it will be at all interesting), but if you really want to read what's there, the link is above.

Female, 23, Pharmacy major in Austin, Texas, previously in the Pharmacy program at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa; however, the climate was definitely not for me. Born and raised in The Woodlands, Texas, about 30 miles north of Houston.

I am a longtime fanfic reader and am totally, completely addicted to science fiction. My many fandoms have included: X-Files, ST:Voyager, Highlander, Buffy/Angel, Roswell, Smallville, Charmed, Stargate, Supernatural, Dark Angel, and Sentinel - among seemingly endless others. I have a weakness for angsty fic and I believe in happy endings, two things that don't go together as often as I would like.

Some of my pet peeves include:

Spellcheck run rampant: for example, misspellings of the word 'definitely' tend to be changed it into 'defiantly' unless you pay attention to what spellcheck changes - I see this over and over again

English grammar mangled in the following ways:
'anyways' - This is not a word. This has never been a word. This will never be a word.
'could of' 'should of' 'would of' etc... - This may be the way it sounds when spoken, but the correct words are 'could've' 'should've' 'would've' etc. They're contractions of the verb 'have', the word "of"' has no meaning there.

I do have to add in a thank you here. I don't have a beta reader (I'm a compulsive editor as it is, these things get edited to death) but have to thank Katie for putting up with me. My creative process basically consists of forcing her to listen to me ramble on incessantly about random plot ideas and read everything I write, unfortunately, since very little of it ever gets finished, she very rarely gets to read an ending to anything. Love you, Katie!

Someday, we'll look back on all of this ... laugh nervously and change the subject. ;)
