recycled-starshide bio
 Author has written 21 stories for Grey's Anatomy, Castle, Rizzoli & Isles, and Private Practice. Sometimes I write things. You can find them here, and (for better of worse) at LJ or (mostly for better) at AO3. While my stories here contain adult content, I never post stories that comprise entirely of adult content here. If you'd like mindless pornography written by moi, LJ is where you should click. (Mostly for Warehouse 13, Castle and Grey's Anatomy ... but these things change on a whim most of the time.) Sometimes (i.e. the past year) I don't write a lot. The reasons are many and varied. My advice would be to stick clear of WIPs unless you're dedicated or don't mind an open-ended ending. Just think of me like Fox: cancelling a show mid-season. Side note: I basically ignore all my e-mails from , so if you want to get in touch, jump on Tumblr and send me an ask at recycledstars. |
