Where are you from (Country and/or State)?
Well that in itself is a subject of heated debate.

How did you get into the Mag7 fandom?
Via Stargate: SG-1 with Katie’s fic Pursuit.

How long have you been writing Mag7 fanfiction?
Since May 2001.

How has your writing changed since you first started?
I am actually finishing it :D

Is this your only fandom, your major fandom or one of the many?
The one and only.

What is it about this fandom that you like?
The variety.

Did you like the Old West before Mag7 or did that come afterwards?
I have been a fan of the Old West since I saw Clint Eastwood in “The Good, The Bad and the Ugly” at the tender age of 5.

Did you see the show before you got into the fandom or after, or haven’t you seen the show yet?
Well I did see the pilot and brief scenes out of “Obsession” and “The Trial” when it was on CBS but my life was quite hectic then as it is now and I didn’t see a majority of the episodes until much later when they were broadcast on TNT.

Is the show your main interest and the fandom comes after or the other way around and why?
Oh well there were aspects about the show that just drove my insane like the wacky camera angles, I loved watching the boys but I enjoy fanfiction because there is far more of it than episodes.

What are you working on right now?
What aren’t I working on… Trying to finish off part 5 of my UGCS Rebus Prime AU, put together the last two instalments that follow the Chronicles of Thunder and Consolation etc etc.

How and where do you write?
Well I write on my trusty laptop ‘George’, and I try to set aside a certain amount of time each morning to write.

What’s the hardest part about writing in this fandom?
Trying to write accurate details without boring or beating the reader over the head with unnecessary information.

Why do you write?
Because I love weaving a tale of my own creation, its like breathing I’ve been doing it so long I no longer question why.

What writers do you think you've been influenced by?
Stephen King, Josephine Tey, Dick Francis, Dean R. Koontz, Stephan Paul Cohen, Gregory MacDonald the list goes on and on.

What advice would you offer to beginning writers?
Don’t give up.

Where do you get your inspiration for your stories from?
Everywhere, a song, an ad on T.V., conversations, Things I see, other fic, almost anything will spur on an idea.

Do you read any of the other AU’s (ATF, LB and so on) out there and do you have a favourite?
I am a major fan of A.U.’s and have read as many as I can, as for a favorite well I find I love different aspects of them all.

What do you look for as a reader of fanfiction?
More fic always looking for more.

Are there any characters or situations that you don't think you'll ever write?
Ooh now that would be telling .

Who’s your favourite character and why?
I came into the fandom loving Vin, but I love to write Ezra and I have come to appreciate and enjoy reading about all the seven.

What’s your favourite story and why?
I have read and enjoyed so many that there isn’t enough bandwidth to list them all.

Any favourite author?
The answer is the same as above.

If you could change one thing about the show, what would it be?
The editing.
