First off, I want to apologize to all my friends and fellow FF authors out there...I have not finished my last fan fic, and I promise to do so, ASAP!* OMG!! I updated a new chapter! Yippee skip! OK, I PROMISE TO FINALLY FINISH "HELL BENT FOR LEATHER!" I MEAN IT! IT WILL BE FINISHED! It is taking my forever to finish, and I apologize.

Hello There! How do you like my picture? This was taken on one of my favorite motorcycle trips...this one was in 2007-we stopped in Magdalena, New Mexico...on the way to Red River, New Mexico. Don't I look tuff? I crack myself up! If only I could have brought Belinda with me...she's my 12-gauge scatter. Maybe I can fashion a back strap for her-like Dirty Steve in 'Young Guns'...oh, that would be funny! In Arizona and New Mexico you can carry a gun on you-as long as it's out in the open-cowboys here have 'em in holsters-like the Old West! How I LOVE living here...sighs...

I have been to Fort Sumner, Lincoln, Roswell, El Capitan and other various parts of "Billy the Kid" New Mexico areas, and other various parts of the state (Red River, Santa Fe, Taos, Albuquerque, etc) on the motorcycle. It's very beautiful there, and we plan to go out there again. We even stayed at the Ellis B & B in Lincoln and stayed in the "Billy the Kid Room", which is AWESOME!! The Regulators, including Billy himself have been/stayed there.

I try very hard to include everything I've seen in New Mexico, but sometimes I forget to add EVERYTHING in all chapters, but I'm working on that. I also try to write about places where I have been (which is easy in this ff, since we live in the White Mountains of Arizona, only a few hours away from New Mexico!)

My husband, Tom, gets pissed off at me, since I do tend to write Mary Sue character-y, but I can't help it! I'm a normal, brown haired, brown eyed woman, and hell, I'd be the first to admit that I would love to look like a Mary Sue! He helps me a TON on my chapters, and I appreciate that he's back into helping me. Whew!!

Oh, jeez, you want some more info? Well, okay...first off, I'm OLD now, way older than you young people! I miss my youth! Wahhhh! Uh...okay, and I do hope to finish my Young Guns fan fic soon, before I die! Here's a little more info: I'm a married mother of one nutty 11 year old, Jake, who loves science, drawing cartoons and making fun of mommy (ME!). I am currently chained to my desk, hard at work being a governmental employee! (I am a legal secretary, and have been for the last 13 years). My hubby works in Show Low and the three of us like to: read, watch TV, go to the movies, eat ice cream, and generally have a ton of fun!

I had changed my pen name from tk421beth to EmiliosLoofah. That just fit better!

Books: I am currently reading four books right now: Holy crap, my profile is old! I finished the Twilight series, all the Harry Potter books...I'm currently reading The Mortal Instruments series, and love author Maggie Stiefvater, Orson Scott Card, Jackie Collins' 'Stantangelo' series, Sofie Kinsella, Jennifer Weiner, Janet Evanovich (her books are a positive gift from heaven!), Vicky Lewis Thompon's Nerd series (TOO FUNNY!), Jennifer Crusie, and the 'House of Night' books by Momma and daughter Cast! The best books I've read: 'A Walk in the Woods' by Bill Bryson, 'Jemina J' by Jane Green, 'The West of Billy the Kid' by Frederick Nolan (EXCELLENT source of Billy the Kid/Lincoln County War info), "Enchantment' by Orson Scott Card and 'Such a Pretty Face' by Cathy Lamb. If I listed all my favorite ones, the list would be a mile long!

I love to read many different books...tons of magazines, full novels, fiction, comics and non-fiction. I've been a lover of books since I was a wee one. I used to read all the books in the house! I'm a lover of Trashy Novels a fun to read, no? My first one was Judy Blume's 'Wifey', which I still love to read! I still love to read Historical Romance novels (hysterical romance!) especially westerns!

Bach (Yes, there are several!), most ALL classic rock, K-pop music, especially MC MONG, BIGBANG, 2NE1, Epik High, Missy Elliot, Josh Groban, Madness, Flogging Molly, The Eagles, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Led Zep, most of the new Country music, The Beatles, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Weezer, Gorillaz, Rush, Eric Clapton (esp his old stuff)...etc...etc!

Yikes I'm OLD!), Stand By Me, A Hard Day's Night, St. Elmo's Fire (I'd DIE if any man came up to me and said: 'I'm obsessed'), Sixteen Candles (love those 80's-90's movies!) ALL Monty Python (especially Holy Grail!), Office Space (that's my life!), anything with Jack Black, or my beloved Emilio in it, etc, etc! My newest obsession, you ask? BENICIO DEL TORO...holy shit, he's a HOTTIE!! *faints*

TV: I love television. I try to watch it a LOT, there I admit it! I would DIE without television! Really! I LOVE Family Guy, The Simpsons, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart (he is brilliant! The most important Jew!!) and Chappelles Show, Roseanne, What Not to Wear on TLC, all the fat loss shows on TLC and the Discovery Channel(s), The Biggest Loser, South Park, BAND OF BROTHERS-What can I say about this HBO WWII drama from 2001? It's the best, and I am totally fan girling over BoB! John Adams mini-series on HBO (OMG, it's SO awesome! I may do a fan fic on that!), all the I the 70's, 80's and 90's on VH1 (Ah! Memories!), and sometime the 'real' news. I cannot STOP watching K-Dramas. I'm addicted to them! I've seen: Coffee Prince, The Great Catsby, Name Name is Kim Sam-Soon, Beethoven Virus, and as of today, I'm in the middle of an older K-Drama, Full House.

I would DIE without my iPad and DVR. I watch so much TV on my DVR!! I watch all my K-Dramas on My iPad.

Collecting: I have a THING for learning about Billy The Kid and the Lincoln County War...I wish I was a real historian...I have about 8 books that I'm reading...'The West of Billy the Kid' by Frederick Nolan is THE BEST ONE...bar none! I'm a member of the Billy The Kid Outlaw Gang...they're located in New Mexico...website: I also collect stamps (I'm a dork)..but they're cool: Star Wars, Harry Potter, and LOTR...I won a blue ribbon at the County Fair for 'em! (Really!). I have a real autographed Young Guns II photo of Emilio...sighs...and several other photos from Young Guns I and II in my dorky office...my sister works for the Television and movie industry, and she is going to have Charlie Sheen sign the YGI photo...I'll faint when that happens! If it happens! I also have a shitload of Star Wars toys that people keep on buying for me on Christmas, even though I'm totally overloaded and have asked them to STOP buying them!

New info: I have not bought anything 'fun' in a long time, LoL. I get a mani and pedi every 3 weeks, and have to buy a lot makeup, so I'll look younger, LoL.

Other Hobbies: I enjoy playing on ! Look me up sometime! My main pet is a Poogle named bisbee66! I'm tk421beth! I also have a store on there too! Check it out! My stuff is cheap! *I haven't been on there for a while!

I also can't get enough of playing Sudoku...I'm totally addicted to that puzzle game!

I just started playing 'Puzzle Pirates' on , and totally addicted to that as well. Username-Ashiyan; character: Oldbaldman! He looks totally awesome in his blue Fez and pointy boots!

I can't even remember the last time I was on puzzle pirates. I'm on Facebook...if anyone wants to be my friend, message me, please! (My profile on FB is private).

Since I was a teenager, I have written fan fiction, but was not sure what to call it! (Hey, it was the 80's...I had to write on old fashioned paper, to you young whipper-snappers!) I STILL have all of my original writing, can you believe it? I enjoy tweaking stories of: Star Wars, Harry Potter, Young Guns, Tombstone and Pirates of the Caribbean. I've been writing a LOT of smut on Asian , which is horrible, since I still have NOT finished "Hell Bent for Leather"...but I'm in the process of finishing it!

My first fan fic is in regards to the movie, Young Guns...and the main character I made up, Jessica Tunstall. I plan to do a Tombstone story one of these days! I want to make a character like Doc Holliday, which will be difficult! I really do not have a lot of free time, though and my updates are rather slow. Sorry, but you'll understand if your married, work 40 hours a week, and have a crazy 11 year old son!

Please email me, if you'd like! I would love to hear from you! I will respond! Ta Ta, 'till next time!

EmiliosLoofah :)

Oh, I forgot to add...I'm a True West maniac #1334!!

Emilio: Thought you'd never shut up! Your profile is stupid! Well...except the stuff you say about me!

Me: Emilio! God! WHY do I put up with you?

Emilio: Do I have to remind you? kisses my neck

Me: Stop that! That tickles!

Emilio: You love it, and you know it!

Me: making small grunting noises
