Me? Feel free to call me Annie. I'm a tiny chick from the East Coast, caught up in the entertainment industry on the West Coast. I'm old enough to drink, but not old enough to be through with university. On that note, I'm a proud USC Trojan majoring in BA Theatre. And yes, I consult for Marvel Comics. Basically, I meet with the writers to brainstorm and discuss continuity issues.

I've been MUCKing for well over a decade now. And from MU*s, I discovered journal-based RP on LiveJournal, then GreatestJournal. So I have more than enough experience under my belt. Unfortunately, I tend to be pretty picky. I absolutely adore character descriptions, and I won't apologize for my five-paragraph descriptions. I would likely break buffers, if XMR's buffers weren't so ridiculously generous. And I demand more than one or two sentences in return. If I'm going to pour my energy and time into a scene, I expect a similar effort in return. The best scenes are challenging and dynamic: witty banter, angsty snark, steamy foreplay, deadly violence, you name it! Keep it interesting, keep it moving in a direction that advances character development. And please, pretty please, don't force me to do all the work to keep the scene progressing. Quid pro quo, eye for an eye. Let's brainstorm and cooperate OOC to make IC all the more fun. Because after all, IC drama is always better than OOC drama.

I am oh-so-passionate about my favorite genres: Marvel, Harry Potter, and Firefly. Generally, I avoid discussing such topics, because I tend to argue. I can be stubborn and obsessive in my opinions, be warned! Also, I love dinking around with graphic design. With a Wacom Bamboo tablet and Photoshop-slash-Illustrator CS3, I never get bored. Feel free to proposition me for icons or graphics of your characters! I'd love to.
