Greetings!
Name: Kirasha or JL
Age: 35+
About Me: I hate "about me" things. lol I never know what to write. I'm heading into what society would call middle age and I call "Holy Cow! I made it!" But, I neither look, nor act like it. I'm still an eclectic geek and nerd at heart and fly those banners proudly. I love all things papercrafting and mixed media art. I have a love affair with words, pens, and notebooks. My reputation at the office is one of pure organization, although you'd never know it to look at my house.
About My Journal: I am a casual journaler and commenter. I post when I have the time and inclination. Generally, if I don't feel I have something to add to a conversation other than "me too!", I won't comment. (The exception being hugs when needed.) My journal here is mostly for fannish things and personal things. Topics can everywhere from Marvel to planners to privacy/security to nature-based faiths to what my Second Life avatar is wearing this week.
What I Write: For a living, I write technical documentation and support content. For fun, I write fiction, both fan and original, mostly in some sub-genre of speculative fiction or romance or both.
What I Don't Write: Pregnancy stories, teenage main characters, a variety of hardcore kinks, PWP
What I Read: If it has words, I'll generally give it a shot. But, I tend to read what I write most often: science fiction, fantasy, supernatural, romance, various non-fiction works depending on what I'm researching at the moment. I do a lot of random/just because research. So, the topics really can run the gamut.
What I Don't Read: Badly out of character fanfiction or any of the subjects I don't write.
Could I Edit Someone Else's Work: I do this as part of my job, actually, as well as occasionally beta-reading for fests.

I'm 42, also have a love affair with words, pens, and notebooks. and am very organized despite the best efforts of my husband and cat. I write original fiction, mostly urban fantasy and fairy tales. I usually only talk about writing or books in public entries but that may change.
Add me back if you want!
no subject
Nothing wrong with talking about writing or books forever as far as I'm concerned. *chuckle* I'm trying to get back into the habit of both myself. The last year or so has been mostly work focused, which, still writing but a very different sort.

I'm not too far behind you there. I'm 29, and I still think about what the Internet was like when I got my start writing (at 14... eeek!)
My room is strewn with notebooks, sketchbooks, and writing/art supplies by the dozen, as well beads, fabrics, sculpey, you name it, I'll try to create it. Once I've got a steady source of income I'm buying a wood burning kit.
Add?
