Author has written 32 stories for Covert Affairs, NCIS, Castle, Burn Notice, West Wing, Newsroom, X-Files, and Madam Secretary. Hi, everybody! I spent a long time lurking on here before finally creating my own account, posting registered reviews, and eventually my own pieces. I think it was a good decision. :) I'm an English major with a passion not only for literature, but for television, as well. I love having pre-made characters to work with and explore. It's not only fun, but I think it helps me grow as a writer. If others enjoy what I write, all the better. Thanks for reading! |
