Chevron 8 and an update to my back story for Radek.

[mckaysmonkey]

As some of you might remember, I once spent an unreasonably large chunk of my week researching Radek's back story to try and figure out whether he might have had some military service in the past.

Well, one of the highlights for me at the Chevron 8.0 was that I won a place in the Guest Encounter with David Nykl (a guest encounter is a chance for 12

Ooo, sounds like you had a fabulous time :D I'm very envious. I love that you talked to David about Radek's backstory - that's so cool. I'd take a look at your old fic; I occasionally read gen fic :D

Thanks hun. I've got six stories I published as welsh-nikki over at fanfiction.net. If you're looking for a gen story, John/Rodney friendship, you may enjoy the following story
Alternate Universe Theory and the sequel Moving to Colorado.

My first published story was actually a Rodney/Teyla pairing but it's incredibly PG. I wrote it before I had an American beta, so it will be full of British words/spelling!

I really have no idea what you'll make of the Sea Horse series of stories. I wanted to write a story where the main character was a single parent, who raises their kid without a partner.

There was a whole lot of other stories I started but didn't finish, some of which are Gen e.g. before I wrote the Pern stories I started writing something called Dragons and Puddlejumpers, which is stalled out in the middle of pt5.

Thanks for the crown :-)

As soon as I spotted David Nykl on the guest list I knew that I needed to find a way to ask him that question. I was pretty lucky to win the guest encounter.

David is a lovely guy, really easy to talk to. He's very funny, and has some cool stories about working in the Theater in Prague.
He's also taller than I was expecting.
