| Bio: | Age statement: I am well over 21. I like gritty, difficult science fiction. Give me Philip K. Dick questioning reality, Octavia Butler testing my morality, and Ursula K. LeGuin or Joanna Russ challenging gender-role stereotypes. Favorite sf authors (in no particular order): Philip K. Dick, Neal Stephenson, Connie Willis, Ursula K. LeGuin, Iain M. Banks, Nicola Griffith, William Gibson. I'm all about thinking of sf/fantasy/horror as serious genres. My penname is an elision of 'ubiquitously quirky.' I nabbed the idea of shortening ubiquitous from Philip K. Dick's novel Ubik, and a particular cover for that novel is the source of my default icon. My life as a fan on the internet began because of Buffy. In 2000, I discovered fanfic and never looked back. My next fixation was Firefly/Serenity. Then HP fanfic caught my attention (instead of the source material). Current obsessions include Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, and Dr. Horrible. Friending: This journal is a mixture of fannish and personal. Fannish is typically unflocked. If you'd like to friend me to keep track of what I'm writing, etc., go ahead! If you'd like for us to become mutual friends, then I'd like to get to know you a little bit - start leaving comments, etc. If I friended you, it means I like your work, and I've also left you a comment somewhere on your lj. I write adult material and link to adult material - if you are not 18 years old or allowed to look at adult material in your country, please do not read my journal. In terms of fandoms, I write Buffy, Firefly, and HP in respective amounts in that order. I mostly write genfic these days, but if I do write ships, they range from het to femslash to slash. While some of my fic can be found at various archives, all stories are located at ![]() Icons: If you would like to use one of my icons, please comment and credit in your userpics. ![]() | |||||||||
