I'm a linguist by nature, a writer by calling. I love not only words, but other methods of communication. I've studied a couple dozen languages, although I've only gone in depth in Spanish and Japanese (and even those I'm not yet fluent in). I'm a conlanger with several languages on the back burner, and if I lived to see all my other writing projects to completion I'd probably still be alive in 2835.

I'm also trying to record a podfic in Japanese, and after that's up I expect to record a few in English (from random fandoms I enjoy[[note]]including LordOfTheRings (the Mellon Chronicles), Slayers, and WelcomeToNightVale[[/note]]) and then one in Italian and see which other languages I can run across. It's been time-consuming and energy-sapping to do this but I expect the finished product will be quite enjoyable for both me and my listeners!

'''Note:''' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JD7Pj1mpkk4 Tiny Box Tim Day]] is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfEjuDCOJWc June 28th]]! It's a holiday for helping others, where you donate Time, Money, or Creativity to charity, and show appreciation to those who've made a difference in your life and don't get to hear thanks as often as they should. I created this holiday in 2016, to celebrate {{Markiplier}}'s birthday (which, hey, turns out to be FeliciaDay's birthday as well, which is funny because she played his wife in a skit once). Please check the Twitter hashtag [=#TinyBoxTimDay=] for more recent info about the effort.

My current fandom (as of mid 2017), and the one that brought me back into the fanfic-writing game (and publishing on a collective site for the first time ever), is ''PersonOfInterest''. I love anything to do with Finch, especially related to Reese or Root, and Finch is the character I focus on most in my writing and in the scenarios I dream up. One of my current series is called ''The Many Kidnappings of Harold P. Finch'', because he is so eminently kidnappable! So far I'm about halfway through the first fic, but the idea is to have one fic per canon episode, where I find the most natural spot for Finch to get kidnapped, and write that scenario (you should see my notes).
Anyway.
