Hi everybody,
My real name is Ion Sandu, but many friends call me John (the equivalent of Ion in English) since High School. I am 51 years old and a Gemini in the European Horoscopes, while a Fire Monkey in the Chinese one, therefore my fate master dressed me for success, so it's said, but so far I had also good and evil a plenty in my life. From the good happenings we may count a - most of the time - happy marriage (second one, well, I'm quite open to the new, I can't help it being a Gemini and a Fire Monkey) and the three children God blessed me with - one 28 year old daughter, one 22 year old son and one 11 year old little daughter (out of two marriages is not bad at all). Also a good accomplishment was my graduating as an Economist and my 15 year-carrier in airline business with 7 year-posting abroad in English speaking countries, resulting in a good level of knowledge in English language and culture. But abroad posting brought into my life the most wretched happening, while in India I have caught a tropical disease, being brought back to normal life after a heavy surgery and 2 and a half years of retirement.
As I believe in signs, I took this almost death experience as a sign that I have to drastically change my life, and being an addicted of Jane Austen, yes, and I am a male, ha-ha-ha, especially P&P, since 1980 after P&P1 release, so I have decided to endeavour to become a writer, this is the reason of being in fan fiction field right now. I consider this period as a training session, but nevertheless as you can see by yourselves I take this job quite seriously.
I enjoy and delight myself reading all that is posted as P&P fan fiction - Regency - and I am thrilled whenever the muse is striking my brain from its natural idleness and starts the creative process!
I hope with all my heart that my mission is to bring joy with my writing to as many as possible, you are called to say if I'm right!
Many thanks for your kind attention.
Ion Sandu aka John or even John 11 (my lucky number BTW)
