anhedralhide bio
 Author has written 6 stories for How to Train Your Dragon. Addict to and particularly the HTTYD fandom since 2011. I admit it freely; there are worse faults. I love the themes in this movie, and its score is just wonderful. Canadian born, but raised in deepest, darkest Surrey. Earning a living in Scotland since 1990. I worked in zoology and conservation for many years, but these days I'm a music teacher, and I'm loving it. I started scribbling HTTYD fanfiction in 2011, my first creative writing since leaving school many years before. I soon caught the writing bug (thank you so much, Dreamworks!), and now I write original short stories too. My DeviantArt has all of my stories and photography; just copy and paste the link: Honest, constructive criticism is always welcome - it helps me improve. So please, if you're minded to leave a comment, don't hold back. I love things that fly, and 'anhedral' is a reference from aircraft design. I blame my engineer father, who adored planes like nothing else, and took me to far too many airshows as a child. |
