I am a musicologist/library scientist/general bookworm, and I like things I am probably too old for, and their respective fandoms. I am a nerd at heart and enjoy anything geeky and well-researched. I enjoy things about music, history, music history, and philosophy. I haven't written much fiction in a long time, though I have been maintaining a growing pile of poetry.

All of the stories on my favorites list are really, really good. You should check them out. I don't include sequels on the list because that would just make it too long and unwieldy. Still, many of them do have excellent sequels, so you should go to their authors' profiles and look at those, too. The favorite author section is a pseudo-friends page, because I delight in using things for other than their intended purposes.

I write gen. Nothing against romance, but I can't write it to save my life. Likewise, I like humor in writing, but I'm not always great at conveying it myself. I have a multitude of weird crazy ideas bouncing around in my skull, but as I'm a ridiculously slow writer, it might take a while to see those come to fruition. I will do my best to update in a timely fashion, but please understand both my meticulous nature and my sometimes-crazy life. I will never hold a story ransom for reviews—I hope you will review if you like the story, but I certainly won't require it.

And thanks for stopping by! Enjoy!
