![]() Author has written 10 stories for X-Files, Fringe, In Plain Sight, Hunger Games, and Doctor Who. Hello, loves! I'm a huge nerd. That's the short of it. This lent well to being an introverted kid with an over-active imagination (no, seriously, I painted wooden dowels to look like lightsabers, fashioned a hilt out of PVC, and practiced my fighting technique in the back yard...in high school...in my marching band off days), and always being curious about what characters did when we weren't watching them on a screen or reading about them. Kept me busy and provided an escape from my big, loud family (who I love dearly...now). My first foray into fan fiction just sort of happened. I didn't even know that fan fiction was a thing, but I decided to take the characters from the Young Jedi Knights series (real Star Wars canon, not this Disney snafu of a third trilogy...though I can't hate how they've portrayed Leia, so I'm a little stuck there), and make my own stories for them. Then I found FFN, was a little sketched out about internet groups and community pages because I was young and in that generation with parents that were terrified of internet stranger danger, but finally made an account and started publishing in 2009. And my shit was terrible then. So I do apologize. I'm not sure that it's gotten much better, it just lacks the weird teenage angst that I was so keen to include way back in the day. I mostly read Chuck fanfiction now (it's a great community, come on over!). I don't write fanfiction very much anymore, though I have had a Chuck fic stirring for many, many years that I just can't get into [what feels like] publishable shape. There is something I want specifically from it and I can't get to it yet. I wish I did have the ability to dabble in fiction still (can I get an A for effort here?). Unfortunately, my time and energy tend to get sucked up on research and real life work-related writing. If you follow me and have enjoyed one of my fics, 1) I've probably matured significantly since I last worked on that fic and would probably want to scrap it and start all over, but also 2) let me know that you want an update! Who knows; maybe I can sneak one in some time. |
