“There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed."

-Ernest Hemingway

I’m a fourth-year history major at York University (Canada), hoping to enter graduate studies and eventually get my PhD. Beyond this, I’d like to think I’m not an incredibly boring person. I drink far too much coffee for my own damn good, and my taste in music, while quite varied, leans towards 70s punk and 90s alternative. I adore X-Men: Evolution and Harry Potter - those are my two main fandoms, and their universes are wide enough to allow experimentation with peripheral characters, which in and of itself can be pretty darn challenging! I take constructive criticism well, I’d hope, and I always appreciate a good, solid, critique of what I write. I believe in the Oxford comma. Secretly? I’m an old man in a tweed suit and pipe in a short girl’s body, and I enjoy connecting with new people.

As a side note, I ship Dorcas Meadowes/Gideon Prewett - I’m definitely alone on that one!

As my (not-quite) 2011 resolution, I aim to review every fic I read, and respond to all of my reviews - it helps keep the fandom alive!
