Hello!

I'm relatively new to this site and to Doctor Who. In the distant past, I used to write X-Files fan fiction in French and English. Whilst I'm still a writer, I write, shall we say, for an entirely different audience !

Things to know about me as a writer:

I'm a non-native speaker of English, so I tend (or so I have been told) to mix North American and British English. I'm more at ease with American/Canadian English because I've lived in North America for so long.

The companions are the most interesting to me; whilst I like the Doctor some of the time, humans traveling in time and how they become more than their circumstances fascinate me. As such, I don't like character bashing, particularly of Rose, Martha and River. To each one's own, but it is rather pointless. My favourite characters are Rose, the Ninth Doctor and Donna. I'm not a huge fan of the Tenth Doctor; although I greatly appreciate David Tennant's talent as an actor, I find Ten to be less sympathetic than Nine. Yes, he has the pretty face, geek chic and manic personality going; however, he's also far more manipulative and calculating than Nine. That is part of the reason why I have elected to write about TenII -- he seems more "Nine-ish." As a result, my "ships" are Nine/Rose and possibly TenII/Rose. River/Eleven isn't bad either, although I'm not partial to Eleven -- just couldn't get into him.

I strive for realism rather than the fairytale ending, especially when I write Rose. The reason being that Rose is working class; she literally has to work for everything that she is given. When dealing especially with Ten, who comes off as incredibly aristocratic, she is at a lower rung socially and has an entirely different time line. Also, that's why I write fan fiction -- in my mind, I'm writing an episode that I'd like to see. (Maybe you would, too?)

Thanks for reading,
