Ok, where am I? In a box... My guess is that this is where I write my stuff. Cool.

Hello everyone! I'm so tired I can't even think straight, let alone type. Anyhoo, I've been a Transformers fan from the beginning of G1 up until they offed everyone in Transformers the Movie. That really chapped my hide so I ditched Transformers and moved on to My Little Pony.

But I never forgot! Oh no, I did not forget. Never. How could I when the Transformers were like the only real role-models and heroes that I had in my childhood? Even when I was wee I dreamed of writing a Transformers novel. I tinkered around with the idea but I relized I needed to live a bit more before I could try and bite off such a huge challenge.

Ratchet was my favorite character and he inspired me. So, at 17 I bolted from home, joined the military, became a heilcopter mehcanic and aviation firefighter... explored the world a bit... then later I became a structural firefighter/medic in Alaska while studying geology...

...now I'm disabled so I can't enjoy as many wild adventures. That's no big deal because I'm married to a great man and we have a lovely baby daughter. I'm a shepherdess and I spend my free time pounding away on the keyboard writing my Transformers novel. I'm about 2,000 pages into it. I suppose that means it will be uh... more then one novel but hey, that's fine. I'm doing what I've always wanted to do and I don't care about the challenges that stand in my path.

You only live once so why not do everything you can to make your dreams come true??

I hope that fans start pumping out Transformers novels in droves. That'd be SO COOL!!!!!

(Oh... where's my prophile photo? I'm not very good at this...)

Greetings! Wow, got a real hero in our midst. Hope you have a good stay.

Welcome!

Welcome to the boards, and enjoy your stay.

Sounds like a pretty exciting life you've had so far. Major respect for the firefighting and military stuff, that's awesome. I'm no writer, but I admire those who can. 'Bout all I manage for writing is doing a bit of text roleplay.

Anyway, enjoy your stay, and it looks like your profile photo is showing fine. It just shows on the profile page, though, as it's supposed to. If you want it to show on your posts, the link also needs to be pasted in the linkbox under "Edit Avatar Settings" in your Control Panel.

I like your tongue-in-cheek profile name.

Welcome!
We have fun and games!
