What is your alias?

Quinn222

How did you choose it?

Quinn was taken. I’ve used Quinn as an online name since the dark ages. It’s actually short for a family name.


What fandoms do you write for?

Queer as Folk.

What fics are you currently working on?

Changes. I’ve got something else cooking in my brain but I wouldn’t say I’m actually working on it.

What fandom did you start in?

La Femme Nikita. Talk about a show that just tanked, Went from brilliant to awful in the blink of an eye and even an amazing cast couldn’t save it. I stuck it out to the bitter end though and made some good friends out of it.

What is your deepest darkest fic-writing secret?

That I just think about what’s happening in my story and wait for one of the characters to start talking. Half the time I have no idea whose voice is going to tell the next chapter. Sometimes they hijack it. Next post I was going to work on was supposed to be a Brian one but someone else jumped in there instead.

Do you have any quirks/habits in your writing?

Not really. Sometimes I do the text first, sometimes the manips. I do research the hell out of stuff. Not sure if that qualifies as a quirk though.

Do you have any fanfiction petpeeves?

When the author doesn’t use Past/Passed correctly.
And all the usual suspects.

Do you have an OTP?

Oh yes: Brian/Justin. However, that said. I love Brian/Emmett. A lot.

If you could get someone to write a fic for you right now, who would it be?

Hmmm. My granddaughter and I did some bonding over La Femme Nikita. We viewed it on DVD, however, and never got further than S3.

I loved Michael. Samantha was a Berghoff (sp?) fan.

We never visited any fan sites or posted anywhere. FanSee

HEE! Of course, cause they're both tall!

Love LFN and have been purchasing the dvds, but I will not buy that awful final season. Still, I wish Roy Dupuis would come down to the States to act.

The things you find out about people ...

Before QAF, the only other show I watched religiously was LFN. Although up here in Canada they didn't want to scare us English speakers off with the french title (?) so they just called it Nikita. Not too sure about that one. Anyway. The final season was due to run here in Fall 2001 but the station playing it pulled it because of the content and terrorism and all that related stuff. Finally got around to showing it the following fall and I must say I am sorry they did. Michael and Nikita were the only other on-screen couple (besides B/J of course!) that have ever done it for me (their chemistry was palpable) and I guess that is why I kept watching but if QAF fans were disappointed with the "resolution" of QAF, us LFN fans got an even worse one. No comparison. QAF I can rationalize, somewhat. LFN was just bad. Really, really bad. Bad graphics, bad story line, bad resolution. What does that say about my choice in TV when the only three shows I ever watched religiously (I'm also a closet Trekkie - TNG, and the last movie of that series was awful when they conveniently killed off the best character! But I won't rant on that.) ended in disaster? Maybe I should have watched Friends or something (I didn't really mean that).

But at least Roy appeared in a really good miniseries (and sequel) a few years ago up here - about bikers and their assorted dealings - and he got to keep the long hair.
