You mean "Edit Page"? OK.
Born in 1989, shortly before the wall fell. There Are No Coincidences.
A well-meaning Evil Matriarch raised me on Star Trek, Red Dwarf, Discworld and bread. Picky Eater to epic extremes. Technically a Farm Boy for much of my youth. Used to hang around with people older than me, leading to The Short Guy with Glasses. As often happens, I tried to invoke Looks Like Cesare and Badass Longcoat - but these cannot be forced. I settled for refining my Deadpan Snarker tendancies. Many years of Literature and Western RPGs instead of talking to people led to Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness. A particularly extreme Manic Pixie Dream Girl helped slightly. [Wangst goes here]. From this I retained a belief that Wine Is Classy. Since then I've written a few terrible fics and some OK fics, if I ever write a good one I will try not to pimp it too hard. I am a big fan of trying to be Less Wrong and have dropped some apathy, though hopefully not enough to go full-blown Hollywood Atheist.
