Bio

I came here for Johnlock. I expanded my interests into other Sherlock pairings, then Dragon Age (especially Inquisition), then Maurice and Check Please. I'm a sucker for omega!Sherlock and top!John and first kisses and apocalypse AUs. I'm squicked by incest and graphic mpreg and some RPF. AO3 has broadened my horizons, taught me what I like, and surprised me more than I can say.

Then Schitt's Creek came along. I see parallels to Sherlock in it, because I see parallels to Sherlock in everything, and it felt like we finally got a little bit of our Johnlock happily-ever-after in David and Patrick. So maybe that's part of why it's the fandom that finally made me become a fic writer, not just a fic reader.

I was on a road trip in accursed 2020 when my first idea for a Schitt's Creek fic popped into my head. I got to my hotel that night and wrote it like pouring out a glass of water. It had been years since I'd done any creative writing, and I had forgotten how good it feels and how much I like doing it.

I really enjoy reading works without grammar, spelling, or word-use errors. I am a professional in the world of publishing and would be delighted, time permitting, to be a beta and help any good writer turn a perfectly lovely fic into a perfectly lovely fic without errors. I've worked for years in both US and UK English.

The above paragraph has been in this profile for years, and no one has ever taken me up on this offer!

Contact me via Twitter. I also have a blog that basically functions as a content aggregator for all the other shit I do online. Its code is probably broken right now.
