Mad Cowhide bio
Author has written 53 stories for Animorphs, In A Heartbeat, Remnants, and Heroes. Hi, I'm Mad Cow (known to some as Sam, KleenexCow, or simply 'Moo'). I'm 23 years old now. I'm a professional sailor specializing in maritime education. So, yeah. Some of my stuff is super embarassing. I apologize for this, but I'm going to leave it up (even though 99 of it makes me cringe) because this is the only place any of it exists anymore. Just...ah...try not to laugh? Of course, I get back into Animorph 'fic as an adult. It's only a matter of time until someone finds out my dark secret and thinks I'm a dork. :) I've gotten a little bit into Heroes fan fiction, so let's give this old account another go, eh? You can find a lot more of my stuff on my writing livejournal. My fic masterlist is here: |
