Sticky Post
This is the livejournal of attempt-unique (aka Kristin). It is primarily fannish and infrequently updated. Most entries are crossposted from my Dreamwidth, so you can comment and/or follow in either place. (No need to ask, though if you do I am more likely to friend back.)
All my posts are organized by tags if you are looking for something in particular.
All my fic can be found at AO3.
