“ Thank you for posting.” (Wine followed – trust me.) Yep, they were circling me like buzzards over a fresh kill, so when I had the back of my hand slapped with a virtual ruler, I had to put on my big girl panties and do the deed. Back then, I was so terrified about even posting a comment, I almost got kicked off one of the major fan fiction sites simply because they had one strict rule that they stated must be followed: “ Post a comment after you read.” I paid absolutely no attention to that little rule, believing they'd never know, but I was busted fairly quickly. Me - I didn’t even have the courage to post a comment on a site, let alone write a story. Normal, everyday people who just wanted to write about what they loved, except they had the courage to do so.
They were written by people just like me.
Some were unbelievably good and others, not so much, but they all had one thing in common.
Wow, talk about a jackpot! Hundreds of stories about my favorite show, and trust me, I read most of them. Can you say lack of confidence? Yeah, that’s putting it mildly.Ī few years after moving to Florida, I became hooked on a television show, and one night whilst scouring the Internet for information about said show, because that's what fans do (duh), I discovered fan fiction. Now, my gray matter is a dark and scary place, but wearing a headlamp and being very, very quiet, I conjured up all kinds of stories over the years that no one ever knew about except me. How Did I Come to be an Author? ( Now to the boring stuff)įor as long as I can remember, I've written in my head. I was born and raised in Delaware, and I moved to Florida in 2004, mostly due to the fact that all the snow, ice, and gray skies were becoming a serious drag on my charming personality. Where Did I Come From? ( Not with the same inflection used by ex-girlfriends.) Oh yeah, and I’m a writer of contemporary lesbian romance. I’m single. (Sigh) I love animals, and I am currently the proud "parent" of three Yorkshire Terrorists, (not a typo), two cats, and all the fish swimming around in my seventy-two-gallon freshwater aquarium.
