I am an American writer with a primary fan fiction interest in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," but I have also written stories based on several other TV shows and movies. Beyond the Buffy-verse, I have experimented with writing in a variety of genres including stories inspired by Rod Serling, Ian Fleming and Graham Greene. I even have a story based on the "Bob Newhart Show," the one in which he plays a psychologist. There is also a short continuation of "Fringe" after its canonical finale, and a crossover between the Buffy spin-off, "Angel," and the original "CSI." I am currently working on a novel that is not fan fiction-oriented. I have previously published short stories and articles in small but widely circulated publications, some of which have gone out of business. (I do not think I had anything to do with that.)

I live in Virginia but have lived in several states, including Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Ohio and Buffy's native California.

The picture I use as my avatar re-stages a frame from one of my favorite movies, "The Maltese Falcon," where the frame only appears on screen for a split second. I call it, "Joel Cairo's Gun" because it features the character's antique pistol, one of which I happen to own: a 1908 .25 Colt Vest Pocket. I have written a slash story (my only slash) based on the very scene where this gun first appears as Sam Spade meets Cairo.
