Profile

Welcome!

I'm primarily a ficwriter, and my fic is what's interesting about me. ;) Right now I'm most heavily into Fullmetal Alchemist, and older fandoms that I still play in include Final Fantasy VII, Digital Devil Saga and Kingdom Hearts. I have also written for Final Fantasy XII, and rarer fandoms such as Elfquest, Dragaera, Ulster Cycle, Discworld and Narnia.

In my spare time I cook, garden, make beaded jewelry, and explore Seattle.

I love comments -- the best way to encourage me to write more of something is to comment on it. ;) I appreciate all comments and try to respond to them, but sometimes older comments fall through the cracks. If that happens, know that I'm sorry and I'm still delighted to hear from you.

Also, a note: I try to cover my Internet tracks pretty well, for a variety of reasons, mostly to do with not wanting my employer to find my potentially-copyright-infringing porn. ;) If you know, or figure out, who I am -- either my actual RL identity or an online handle I use that's more closely connected to my RL identity than this one -- please do me the courtesy of not outing me. Thank you!

Friending Policy

First things first: you don't have to friend me to get at the fic. All of the fic is available outside the lock. You can start with all the fic, or go by fandom -- primarily Fullmetal Alchemist, Final Fantasy VII, Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy XII, as well as several rarer fandoms. Fic is also tagged by character, pairing and other esoterica. All tags are here. (Coming soon: a master ficlist, and an actual archive website.)

So what's inside the friendslock? Music, writing meta, recipes, and occasional other stuff. I try not to talk about my life too much -- this is a fandom journal -- but pretty much anything that's not straight-up fic or fanmeta goes behind the lock.

I will friend back anyone who asks, or anyone who friends me, provided you're not my boss or my mother. (Sorry, Mom.) If you friend me (and you're welcome to do so at any point -- no need to ask permission), I'll add you back, but it can take a week or two for me to notice that my flist has changed -- for faster service, drop a note in this journal entry. No explanation is necessary, but it's always nice to know how you found me.

Transformative Works Policy

My fanworks (fanfic, meta, speculation, soundtracks, etc) are open to the creation of further transformative works, including but not limited to podfic, remixes, commentary, art, or borrowing of elements such as ideas, characterization, backstory, new fanon, and original characters. I ask only that you credit me for the elements that you use (author's notes or endnotes are fine). You don't even need to ask. I also would like very much for you to point me to the new work so I can squee, but that's not strictly necessary. :)

(Note that this does not apply to my original works. There's a very good chance I'll be releasing those in some way via a Creative Commons license -- but that'd be a different policy. This policy is just for fanworks.)
