Bio:

I've been a fan of this show since day one, but only by the end of the third season did I come across the world of fanfiction. After reading some very good fics (and a few bad ones as well), I figured I might not be the best, but I would try my best to write as much interesting and entertaining stories as I could.


I wrote a few short stories and started four big projects (two anthologies, one novel and four-part feature scripts). The last time I've updated any of those projects was... eight years ago? I think. So it's about time I finish some of the projects that are still pending. Starting with 'The Alphabet Series' and 'Who Forgot to Pay the Rent?'. Everything is being rewritten, though some stories will only have minor changes, and will begin being posted perhaps this weak.

The idea of getting back to write for this fandom has always been on mind, but trying to make a living writing original stuff other than fanfiction is time-consuming. I don't know where this impulse came from - and no, it has nothing to do with the return of the show (excellent news!), which I only found out about yesterday, since I've been working on these stories for the past two months - but I'm looking forward to see where it will take me.
