I am MyLadyScribbler. I am a tea-drinking, voracious book-reading, partly-of-Irish-descent girl living within shouting distance of New York. I wield a mighty pen, I have an unceasing supply of witticisms and quips, and it's a miracle that my computer keyboard is still intact.

Outside of my fanfic stuff, I am now the proud owner of a master's in English - my thesis was on the portrayal of memories and cultural amnesia in the novels of Ursula K. Le Guin. I have a day job as a journalist and editor, and I have multiple short stories and novels in the works, including more than a few National Novel Writing Month projects.

Favorite books/authors, to name a few: Terry Pratchett, Ursula K. Le Guin, Kristen Britain, Neil Gaiman, Lindsay Davis, Scott Westerfeld, J.K. Rowling, Octavia Butler, Naomi Novik, N.K. Jemisin, Marsha Mehran

Favorite genres of book: Science fiction, including steampunk and cyberpunk; fantasy (high, low and urban); mystery; classic literature; folk tales, legends and mythology

Favorite games, also to name a few: King's Quest, Legend of Zelda, Laura Bow, Quest for Glory, EcoQuest

Favorite shows: NCIS, Doctor Who, Sherlock

Favorite films: The Princess Bride, anything by Studio Ghibli, the Harry Potter films, Murder on the Orient Express...

Tumblr prompt fic for fluffy pre-calamity secret wedding. Slight crossover with TP.
