come back around

spintheiryarnsOKAY SO. Apparently I have a whole ton of people friended/subscribing/whatever you call it here that I don't on LJ and whom I possibly don't actually know at all, so perhaps I will crosspost after all while I'm getting myself sorted. I don't want to import my LJ, because there's five back years of teenage fail in there, but here's the short version:
I'm 21-- was born in NYC, grew up near Philadelphia, and currently live in Chicago with a lab tech, a math professor, and a giant orange cat. I was taking British history at U Chicago but hated it, dropped out, and am currently working for an online shoe store and looking into being an illustration major (and stage design minor) at an art school downtown.
I have no real specific fandoms any more, but the list of things I would love to read and/or write fic for is vast, and I love a good crossover-- I've got three separate ones on the brain right now. I get pretty OTP-ish and defensive about pairings, but I'll fall in love with a character or canon at the drop of a hat. As a general rule I like fictional(ized) newspapers, cyborgs, women who play with machinery, YA, non-comics-based superheroes, crime novels, and all kinds of cheesy ridiculousness. (My most recent addictions are Life, the BBC State of Play, Lost, A Series of Unfortunate Events, and Zac Efron. If that helps.)
Tell me about yourselves :D? Even the socks and lurkers, if y'like, I'm curious who I'm talking to here. I'd offer lemonade but that doesn't work so well over the Internet.

Date: 2009-05-04 04:48 am (UTC)Finishing things is hard. Though I have the opposite problem-- I've been plugging away at this same longfic for ages and ages and I wish it would just get finished and be awesome already :( I would totally love some Sharpay/Zeke/Ryan, though, and I hope you finish it sometime. And I can't wrap my mind around a Wodehouse/Watchmen crossover either, but I officially declare you awesome and brilliant for thinking it up to begin with. :DDDDDDDDDDDDDD
You should come hang out with me and my IRL/IRLJ friend Esther, who writes Band of Brothers fic where they all have animal daemons. Crossover party! \o/
