Bio
A now-retired attorney/disability advocate & current vet tech (I prefer working w animals, after 15 years practicing law) who’s been cheering for the “bad guys” since the 1980s / a rabid, somewhat obsessive fan of ASOIAF (100% backing Houses Bolton & Greyjoy, & half in love with Roose Bolton), Headless (2016) LEXX, Friday the 13th, Masters of the Universe, Hellraiser, Event Horizon, & The Last Unicorn / loves ‘70s and ‘80s slasher, horror, & exploitation flicks a bit too much ...
