I am a mad Star Wars fan. No I don't subscribe to starwars.com or dress up in Darth Vader guise at the office, but the films, the books, the saga George Lucas has given to us is as fascinating a place as I think you can find. Fanfiction has allowed me, in my own way, to join that galaxy that is so far, far away.

I do want to add that I am not George Lucas, nor have I ever met him or written to him. I am not getting paid for my fic, and unless he himself were to do so, don't want to be. These characters are his; they belong solely to him. Besides the characters I have introduced, and the situations they find themselves in alongside Mr. Lucas' creations, this is his Star Wars universe. Hell, for that matter, my characters have life because his films gave me the inspiration and want to create them. Thanks again, George.

I try to fill in the blanks, albeit tough to find many, in the Star Wars universe with my stories. And while my work is not part of the Star Wars canon, I think I've tricked my subconscious into believing it is. HaHaHa

I really appreciate feedback, both constructive criticism and "just-wanted-to-say-I-read-your-fic" posts, but have had little luck getting anyone to review my work. Groan. I need to know someone is reading my stuff. Feedback often.

Remember, fan fiction is like the Force. And in Vader's own words:

"The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force."
