hi.

occasionally, i read fanfic. even less occasionally, i am compelled to write something outrageously pretentious. sorry everyone!

for what it's worth, everything written before 2005 i find terribly embarrassing now, and i suggest passing it over unless you want to die from boredom. everything written in 2005 or later is reasonably tolerable.

love is blind:

If you have written fic that you'd like to see added to the love is blind DOA community, or have a recommendation, or would like to help out as staff, or - well, anything having to do with the community, just drop me a PM or contact me via Dreamwidth. I may not reply quickly but I promise I'll respond when I can. The only requirement for submissions is that they include slash or femslash; everything else is fair game. ;)

OTHER STUFF

Dreamwidth Journal (terabient. dreamwidth. or g): Where I post drabbles and ficlets that I feel are too small for . Also: porn that is too porny for . Also also: fan-related stuff like thoughts/reactions/icons/etc. And some boring personal stuff. It is pretty unorganized at the moment. Apologies for that.

Archive of Our Own (archiveofourown. o rg/users/terabient): For fic I'm not comfortable posting at , usually because of its rating. (If you are curious, it is mostly Raphael/Siegfried hate!sex. I imagine that's not many people's cup of tea, but if it's yours, well...there it is.)

My participation in fanfic and fandom is sporadic (surprise!) but if you would like to get in touch I am slightly more active at the above sites than here. (As is stripping links from profiles, I've added the address to assorted sites so anyone interested can copy/paste it into the address bar - just remove the spaces.)
