Author has written 42 stories for Big Bang Theory, Sliders, and Warehouse 13.

Hi everyone! I'm a thirty-something mother of three school-aged children. I love all sorts of creative things, especially those where I can create something cool even if I suck at drawing. I read, I sew, I quilt, I scrapbook, and most recently, I write fanfiction. Right now, I am only writing Shenny stories for The Big Bang Theory. I doubt I will ever branch out into other fandoms, because I don't watch much tv, and I have rarely been so forcibly struck by the idea that the writers of a show have botched things in such a dreadful fashion. So I write what should be, and I enjoy it. I hope you do too.
