| Bio: | This is basically a fandom and fanfiction journal. I'm very multifannish at the moment. My current favorites include: Aubrey and Maturin, Battlestar Galactica, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, CSI, Doctor Who, Good Omens, Harry Potter, Hellblazer, Heroes, Mary Renault's novels, Rome, Torchwood, X-Men [movies and comics], other comics (such as Top Ten and The Authority), and too many books and movies to list here (especially ones with gay male characters). I don't write regularly in all of these fandoms, but they're the ones I'm likely to write about, read fic or meta about, squee about, and so on. There are also occasional forays into movies, music, and politics. I don't post much personal stuff, but in case you're curious, I am: 1) a fanfiction writer since May 2003 2) a fan of characters who aren't exactly heroes, even when they are (such as Giles, Oz, Wesley, John Constantine, Ray Kowalski, and Remus Lupin) 3) a fan, too, of "villains" who aren't entirely in the wrong (such as Magneto and Gaius Baltar) and of characters who are on the side of good but are still wretched human beings (such as Severus Snape) 4) a boyslasher, although I like a bit of good gen now and then too 5) a genderqueer boygirl--boyslash and m/m homoerotic literature let me into the self I should have had 6) a bookish and sometimes literary sort 7) an academic in my Other Life (see #6) 8) an Anglophile, but in the "I love Julian Barnes, Eddie Izzard, and The Fast Show" sense, rather than the "I love the royal family" sense 9) a cynic, a misanthrope and a romantic, in varying and unpredictable proportions depending on my mood My username, if you were wondering, has nothing to do with John Constantine's girlfriend Kit, or Dawn Summers's friend Kit. Instead, pretentiously enough, it comes from a nickname given to the playwright Christopher Marlowe. He was notoriously sharp-tongued and ill-tempered, so his (few) friends called him "kind Kit." If you like my writing, please go ahead and friend me. There's no need to ask first. However, I don't automatically friend back--I consider the "friendslist" to be a reading list, so the people I add are those who write fanfic or analysis that I especially enjoy. I seldom friend journals that are mostly personal or that feature a lot of quizzes and so on. But even if I don't add you to my reading list, I'm delighted that you want to read my stories (and I never friendslock stories, so you're not missing anything). Also, I love comments, especially on fic. If you liked it, I'd love for you to tell me so. And if you didn't like it, tell me why. Constructive criticism is welcome here.

It's a vast improvement over IJ's annoying orange pumpkinhead. | |||||||||
