Detourhide bio
 Author has written 5 stories for NCIS. Mostly I write original stories; fan fiction is still fairly new for me as a writing format. I find it not so easy! I am currently a fan of NCIS and will likely concentrate any ff efforts there, as I feel I know the characters well. I confess to being a Tony fan. I watch more movies than tv, but do enjoy several of the cable networks' originals such as Psych, The Closer, Burn Notice and Eureka. I read quite a bit, in all genres. My favorite places include the Canadian Rockies, London, Portland (Oregon) and any place I can find to go caving. Currently (and may always be) addicted to narrow, creaky, long wooden footbridges and hot air balloon rides. I welcome PMs, especially on writing (getting over blocks, comparing styles, methods, etc) and on NCIS matters. Be warned, I am not so very happy with the last half of season seven or the first half of season eight. But things are looking up lately...let's hope they can keep the upswing aloft. Story updates: The preseries has begun. Whenever it's completed, the Obstructed View's sequel will begin. The Mounties will return in the sequel, promise! Additional update Nov 2011: I have not given up on Fitting Pieces, largely thanks to the notes left by wonderful readers. I'm trying to get back on track, but am afraid to promise updates by any certain date. | |||||||
