Author has written 1 story for Sanctuary.

Well, hello world of wonderment!

The name's Branda, but you can call me whatever you please, so long as it's not profane.
I'm married to the most amazing man and have been for nearly three years.
I have another account here, which I cannot get into to save my life, so I started a new one. And, my interests have changed in the last few years, so a clean slate is nice, also.
I'm currently hooked on Sanctuary, Fringe, NCIS, and Bones.
I'm a totally hopeless romantic and complete sap, and proud of it.

Hope you enjoy my work!!
