Intro Post: Jax's Adventures In Fandom Land

Dec 24, 2020 13:53

Everything you (n)ever wanted to know about Jax but were afraid to ask!

JX Valentine, otherwise known as Jax. Twenty-something grad student in a dark world, armed with a pretty dark sense of humor. Fic author, beta reader, grammar pedant. Enjoys writing, roleplaying, cooking, going on forums, hanging out with friends, snarking, swearing like a sailor, and taking long walks. Occasionally while completely drunk.
