  • Bio
    I have been writing creatively for what seems to be a (very) long time now, and find it to be a stress reliever. (Twitch? What twitch...) I admit to writing things that I like to read, not necessarily what other people may enjoy - Though I love the feeling of seeing someone laugh at something I wrote, or of finding that an observation made in one of my pieces made them think, or see something they may have missed before - If you could patent and bottle that feeling, who would need drugs? I am an (insanely!) avid reader; I read voraciously, almost everything that comes across my path, but I could live, extremely contentedly, with the works of Rex Stout, Ian Fleming, David Eddings, Philip Pullman, Karen Marie Moning, Anne McCaffrey, Naomi Novak, and Terry Pratchett for the rest of my life. I'm an artist of sorts (Disclaimer: Claims of the authoress to be an artist are purely in her head, and any claims to talent should be strictly ignored, for her own good. Remember, when dealing with the paranoid delusional, just smile and nod boys and girls. And when that doesn't work - Run. Just run.), I enjoy Japanese ink painting, sketching (pencil and charcoal, primarily; a high school art teacher once told me I had no sensitivity for paints ;p ) and occasionally clay and soapstone. I love to watch movies, especially Fred Astaire or Audrey Hepburn films. Other favourites include (right now, anyways): The Labyrinth, Indiana Jones, Top Hat, The Mummy I & II, My Fair Lady, Pride & Prejudice (the A&E version),Underworld I & II, Star Wars (all of them), LotR (all of them), National Treasure, Kate and Leopold, The Princess Bride, While You Were Sleeping, and Gross Pointe Blank. I love Anime, though I'm not very widely viewed, nor am I widely read in Manga, though there are several titles I adore. Right now, I'm following Platinum Garden, and am impatiently waiting for the next release. I love Sailor Moon (anime and Live action) and Fruits Basket. Basically anything fun and romantic that makes me want to fall in love ;-) I am an abysmal speller - as I'm sure you have already noticed. Viva le Spell Checker, Her Majesty's most prized possession! Drink, Hail, Wassail! I am Canadian, and I live about an hour out of Toronto. (I wish sometimes it was farther - I really hate the traffic...) I collect classic children’s (well, all classics, really) books in old hardcover editions. Not necessarily valuable, or unique, just ones that have been well used with those beautiful cloth and leather covers and the 'old book' smell. (I am such a geek, aren't I?) I have an old cloth copy of The Nutcracker, that I re-read every Christmas Eve. I have a great interest in Archeology and am especially interested in ancient Mesopotamia. I also have a secret love for Medieval history, and folklore.
