Welcome to the home of Spiderlilly: computer geek, gamer grrl, writer

A little less clothing than I'd wear, but…
Can the gun be any bigger?

For the rest of you, welcome.

Pet peeves: ignorance, prejudice, having to correct people on which proper your (you're), their (there, they're), or to (too, two) to use in a sentence…

What to say about me? I'm quiet and a bit of an oddball, first off. And a bit awkward. Oh, I carry around my trusty uber-customized salt shaker so I can pepper every conversation I'm in with awkward silences. I'm the sort of person who wouldn't find anything wrong with reading a book in the middle of a rollicking party. I share a house presently with a motley group of weird (really!) housemates; a hardcore packrat, I live in a room full of books, as-yet unwritten ideas and an enviable prize collection of vintage dust bunnies.

Still here?

Well!

I've got a silly streak a mile wide to the point of being outrageous at times; but I can very easily get serious and analytical when it comes to a serious topic. I can get passionate. Said passion's directly proportional to the criminally negligent typos I can commit. I considered taking typing lessons in high school a waste of my time. 'Course, those who are in the GameRanger macintosh gaming community would have known that already. You'll be reading this space along with my fellow gaming pals and mac users, so some expressions may not translate, but I'll try to explain them as much as I can.

One of my claims to fame (erm…) is that I share a birthday with Ray Bradbury, August 22nd. Also, on my birthday, on a Saturday in 1953, John Russel Fearn's The Central Intelligence was printed in the Toronto Star (Never before published in book or any other original form) as a Star weekly Complete Novel.

So… maybe one day I'll be as famous as Ray Bradbury…

Why are you saying I'm delusional…?!

Currently, I'm working on completing a novel, and polishing some short stories and novellas to send out into the wide world. People call me a writer, so I guess that's part of what I am.
