Author bio:
Well, now I know what that big blank spot on my author page is for...
I'm the ubiquitous Tikatu - mother of three, wife of one, and dog/cat sitter extraordinaire (just ask them!). I've been hanging around with Wrimos in Greenville, SC, since 2005 when I wrote the barest bones of a YA/Children's story about dragons. Since then, I've been alternating original fic with fan fiction (of which I've published quite a bit) and this year is fan fiction's year. I'm also the co-ML for said Greenville, SC, and am into my fourth year of those fun and frazzling duties.
Not only is this year slated for fan fiction, it's also my year of Rebellion!™ where I'm not starting something new but picking up a fanfic from 2007 and trying to finish it up. Seriously, I have several WIPs and NaNo novels that are sitting around my hard drive (or, in a couple of cases, on fanfiction.net) that are screaming to be completed. I picked this one up during the August session of Camp NaNoWriMo and tried to finish it then, but my inner editor, that sneaky sneak, kept breaking out and wouldn't let me finish. So, I'm hoping to put her firmly in a lockbox this month and get this sucker finished!
(BTW, I'm only kidding about the ™...)
