Pyrinsomniac: Noun. A reclusive 22 year old with bookwormish tendencies and addictions to the Internet (fanfiction in particular) foodstuffs containing an ungodly amount of sugar, and sleep.

I first stumbled across Thunderbirds fanfiction when one of my favorite authors wrote a Thunderbirds fanfic, and though I'd never even heard of the series I read her story. I was drawn to the strong family ties, especially the brother relationships. I started looking up information, liked what I read, and wound up watching the movie and writing my own little contributions to the fandom.
