Swellison ~ Stories found at Mackie's Idol Pursuits (alternate link)
Date First Story Posted: August 1997
Author Profile ~ I'm a long time media fan, and partnership shows are my favorites. I always thought I'd be a librarian and write the Great American Novel on the side. I ended up a seismic data processor, writing fanfic on the side. I've been a zine writer for years, enjoying the "writing for tribber's copies" philosophy. I bought a pc two summers ago and discovered the wonderful, wide world of Sentinel fic on the net and had to add my two cents' worth.
