FANGIRL BIO INFO
Name:
Nic
Age:
Pushing the big 3-0
Quote or Motto:
God
does not play dice with the universe: He plays an ineffable game of
His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of
any of the other players [i.e. everybody], to being involved in an
obscure and complex variant of poker in a pitch-dark room, with
blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you
the rules, and who smiles all
the time. - Neil ‘n’ Terry, Good Omens

1# Fangirlie Crush
of All Time |
That’s like asking
me which one of my babies I want to rescue from a burning
building. Sheesh! I guess since Hugh Jackman actually snogged
me, he wins by default. He’s tricksy, that one.

Short Bio
I hate talking
about myself. No, seriously - damn you, Jessie! But I do.
Anyway, long story short - born and raised in LA. (the South Bay area
specifically - Tarantino country, baby!) Graduated from USC in
1997 with an exhorbitant amount of film electives that don’t
merit a minor, but the knowledge is there, bub. Been clawing my
way through the ranks at the LA Weekly since graduating and am
now a full-time promotions and online geek girl, which pays the
bills and still allows me to freelance from time to time.
Christ, no one else around here is going to do a pick on The
Poseidon Adventure marathon…what would they do
without me?!

What made you
realize you were a Fangirl?
The
fact that I had Harrison Ford as Indy on my bedroom wall when I
was six would have been an early indicator. But when my
first real boyfriend first told me he loved me and I reflexively
responded with “I know” - that might have clinched it. |

If you could be any
character in any movie or TV show ever made, who would it be and
why?
Slick already
hollered dibs on Ellen Ripley, didn’t she? Damn. I mean, I
could give the same answer but that’d be boring. Let’s see - I
know, I’d be Newt all grown-up in the far-superior fourth
Alien film that would have resulted if they’d done Alien
3 MY way. Oy, that sounds egotistical. Can I be Jamie
Summers with Emma Peel’s wardrobe?
