Hello, everyone! My name is Katie, and I am 30 years young and engaged to be married this coming May. : )
I totally want a blue TARDIS diary of my own... Apparently, we can order them online (available in February, it says)
HERE. I think I'll wait until they post an actual release date to order mine, though.
I earned my BA in Communications (focus in Journalism and Theatre) and a minor in Music (flute/piccolo) in 2006. I am an alumnae of the professional women's music fraternity, Sigma Alpha Iota (beta eta chapter, Western Michigan University - though, that's not where I wound up graduating from), and I am a big Sci-Fi/Fantasy Nerd.
My favorite job was working at my local comic book store, which is now just down the road from my house! <3 In fact, I met my fiancee there - he was one of my regular customers.
Besides the Whoniverse, I am also a huge fan of: all things X-Men related (though, I <3 the comics WAY more than the movies - I started collecting X-Men comics when I was about 12 years old! And, Rogue is my favoritest X-Man - ever), Star Wars (the original trilogy, please), Indiana Jones (I pretend the 4th movie never happened...), Harry Potter, the Chronicles of Narnia, True Blood, Anne Rice's vampires, the "House of Night" series, the "Vampire Academy" series, the "Twilight" series (though, I must admit... real vampires don't sparkle - but, that doesn't mean that they shouldn't... I mean, they're really pretty!), Firefly/Serenity, Buffy/Angel, Game of Thrones, The Last Unicorn, The Labyrinth, Jem & the Holograms, She-Ra/He-Man, Rainbow Brite, Lord of the Rings, Jay & Silent Bob... I could go on, but I'll stop myself there. (I like too many things! Eek!)
As far as Doctor Who goes, my favorite Doctors are the Fourth and the Eleventh. I do hope that the poor guy gets to regenerate into a redhead, someday... for his sake. *tee hee* My favorite Companions are Amy Pond, River Song (if she counts, technically, as a companion), Romana II, Rory (but not until after his badass moment with the Cybermen in the Demons Run episode - I freaking LOVE that scene!), and Sarah Jane Smith (I have mad love for Elisabeth Sladen - RIP you wonderful lady!)
I could never stand Mickey. Or... was it Ricky? (lol)
I've been RPing online for over 10 years - my first ever RP was in a Yahoo Group - a Batman game. I played Catwoman, and it rocked (and then it died). I've played in and also created and run several different games since then, though, other than here, I'm only participating in 2 other games: a Marvel Comics-themed game, and another Whoniverse game.
So, I had gotten to thinking that I wanted to find another Doctor Who-ey RP to join as well, but... for the longest time, I hadn't been able to find one. Until now - YAY! ::happy dance::
My River will be open to RPing with anyone and everyone here - especially if they have ties to the Doctor (any one of his faces); I am also open to RPing her at all sorts of various points in her timeline.
I hope that our Eleventh Doctor isn't a River-hater... In fact, I hope that most people here, even if they don't necessarily LIKE her, that they are at least open to RPing with her. I only say this because at my other DW RP, there are several people there who feel very poorly towards the character and have expressed that they do not wish to write with her (which feels pretty crappy, as her player).
If you don't want to write with River, I'll understand - but I hope that most everyone feels at least "OK" about her presence here.
My next move: I will be looking for threads to join, and I'll probably start a thread in the appropriate forum for plotting, too.
*HUGS*
