Biography:   *strange person tramps in with a label reading 'Most Unreliable Writer'* Oooh, people! *pokes reader* Yes, I've gone a bit foo-foo. It's because I've despaired of ever finishing anything longer than a vignette (and as I have this ingrained tendency towards epics, this is Not Good). You can tell from the couple of false starts in my ff.net stories. In any case, I hope you find something good about my stories (because I don't (<-- that might be my Gollum speaking, btw)), and try not to fall in Middle-Earth, it's getting quite crowded in here (precious!)...
