I fell in love with all things Gerry Anderson at a young age and was an avid fan of UFO and Space 1999 as a child. But I had to wait for the repeats of Thunderbirds before I knew just what I’d been missing.

In my younger days I’d written cult fan fiction just to please myself, so I don’t know why it has taken me so long to figure out that I probably wasn’t the only one. I’m a bit slow that way. But it’s been an exciting discovery to catch up on what I’ve been missing. My own stories died years ago when my ancient Mac croaked its last and I’m starting from scratch again now. Why Thunderbirds rather than anything else? Well, what could be more appealing than five gorgeous guys - with all the added potential for drama and tension of being brothers? But you don’t need me to tell you that.
