Date First Story Posted: October 1997
Author Profile ~ For as long as I can remember, I've been writing
fanfic -- if only in my head. I prefer stories with logical plots, strong
characters, and humor to balance the angst. The 'net, with all its fanfic,
has become my latest hobby, and I'm equally happy reading a story as I
am writing one...only I'm sad when I come to the words "THE END"
when I'm reading, and glad to see them when I'm writing. Peace and Long
Life!
