I'm a sci-fi and fantasy fan and aspiring author. I got addicted to TV Tropes in May of 2008, and spent far too much time reading them at the office.

I've added the following examples to the following pages:

• Rhymes on a Dime ("A Pirate I Was Meant To Be")
• Subverted Rhyme Every Occasion ("The Clean Song")
• Keep The Reward (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire)
• Single Line of Descent (Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets/Deathly Hallows)
• Immune to Bullets (the Deathcape from Incarnations of Immortality)
• Magical Mystery Doors (the Temple of 1,000 Tombs in Neopets' Lost Desert Plot)
• Brain in a Jar (the spider droids in Jabba's palace, in the Star Wars Expanded Universe)
• Something for Everyone (a certain scene in End of Evangelion)
• Dead Person Conversation (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, again)
• Never The Selves Shall Meet (Southland Tales)
• Baleful Polymorph (the Librarian from Discworld)
• Pixel Hunt (Neopets plots)
• Popcultural Osmosis (the use of "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" in Fantasia)
• Title Drop (The Importance of Being Earnest)
• Generation Xerox (the end of Digimon Adventure 02)
• Time Stands Still (Incarnations of Immortality, again)
• I Meant to Do That (Star Tours)
• Mind Rape (Incarnations of Immortality example #3)
• Single Stanza Song ("Bookends," by Simon and Garfunkel)
• Concept Album (American Idiot, by Green Day)
• Call Receival Area (Card Captor Sakura)
• Sealed Evil in a Can (Neopets again; this time, the Return of Dr. Sloth plot)
• Your Universe or Mine? (both Star Trek examples)
• Do Not Call Me Paul (the Watchmen example - yes, I started the Comic Books folder on that page)
• Insistent Terminology (the RL example about AmeriCorps)
• Swiss Moment (the one about "Green Lantern: Hal Jordan")
• Exposition Beam (the Watchmen example under "Film")
• Oh My Gods! (the Neopets example)

I created the following pages:

• This member profile page (of course)
• The Headscratchers page for Incarnations of Immortality
