    Basic Info
    Name:Chomiji
    Location:Takoma Park, Maryland, United States
    Bio
    I'm a civil servant, married, parent of a brand-new adult, SF&F fan from way back, inactive SCAdian, writer/editor, former software user support geek, and plain ol' HTML coder (none of those silly WYSIWYG things for me ... but I have yet to do anything interesting with this LJ!) since 1995. I started reading manga about 3 years ago and the silly stuff has now taken over vast portions of my life (e.g., time, bookshelf space, etc.). I rarely watch TV and only like seeing movies along with other people. For comfort reading, I often dig out old children's books. Other miscellany: INFP, Leo w/ Libra rising, Earth Dog.

    My Samurai Deeper Kyo moodtheme is by the very talented blue-hobbit, adapted from mangaka Akamine Kamijyo's original work. SDK was my first manga series and still has a very special place in my heart.

    The current subtitle quote is from "Seven Dreams" by Carrie Newcomer. In full: I dreamt I told you a dream I’d had that once I had dreamt of you / you touched my face and you told me “hush” - and that you already knew.

    Other places I spend time online: Shejidan (C.J. Cherryh fan message board), and Diana Wynne Jones mailing list (usually just lurking); Archive of Our Own (AO3)  .

    Update: I have recently become a Fandom Grammarian! Head on over to the LJ fandom_grammar community for answers to your fandom writing questions!
