![]() Author has written 33 stories for His Dark Materials, Harry Potter, Obernewtyn, NCIS, CSI, Parenthood, and Sanctuary. Work smart, not hard! Hey everyone! So I thought it was about time I gave my profile a little sprucing up... I have been writing for as long as I can remember in some form or another, and I love it. I write short stories of my own original works as well as my own poetry (which I don't post here). I love love love art/art history. My poetic influences are Sylvia Plath and Victor Hugo. I am a totally crazy and passionate person. "But, darling, a little insanity is good for the soul" (my own personal hero used to say that). The more colour in your life the better. :) I am completely and totally just a little bit OBSESSED with Sanctuary. I simply adore both Helen Magnus and Nikola Tesla. Of course, I adore them together as well - yes, I am a hopeless Teslen. Being a self-proclaimed feminist (from the time I could talk, lol) I tend to adore strong, independent female characters on TV. Three of my favourite kick-ass women on TV are Helen Magnus, Laura Roslin and River Song. I adore Amanda Tapping, Alex Kingston, Mary McDonnell, Helen Mirren and Jennifer Saunders (who is brilliant). They're all brilliant actresses. Oh, and I mustn't forget Cher!! She's probably just about the only person I've ever actually wanted to slap me. Lol. I could watch her slap Nicholas Cage in 'Moonstruck' or Winona Ryder in 'Mermaids' all day. You can find me on most sites as "ZaraShade", its just simpler that way. My newest Helen/Nikola vid - "Well behaved women rarely make history." The best part about DW's mid-season opener 'Let's Kill Hitler'? They left Hitler in a cupboard... but that's okay - 'cos we all know John Druitt kills him anyway! :) River: what are you doing? |
