About

At Mariner's Spring Training 2005

About…me.

Well, My name’s Jane Fancher, but you already knew that, right? I mean, the URL and the header are kind of a dead giveaway. I write science fiction and fantasy, with six published novels, three graphic novels (art as well as script) and a handful of short stories in my credits. I also ”do” art. For more on the specifics of those professional endeavors, please check out my website at  http://janefancher.com.

Beyond that, let’s see. I figure skate, garden, build things, travel, sing a bit, play a bit of piano and guitar, stitch…and, well, we’ll find out what I’ve forgotten as this blog develops.

This is me—over there…or up there…depending on your browser. I seriously detested the white borders this theme wanted to put on captioned images, so…the caption is gone. Until I can figure out how to make it black, I’ll just have to explain in text. This picture was taken at the Mariners’ (Seattle’s pro-baseball team) spring training camp in 2005. I like to think I look pretty much the same now. And, yes, I’m a baseball fan. It’s one of the few sport I’ll actually pay money to go watch. Figure skating, when the Nationals are in town, is another.

Efanor helps decorate.

This is my cat, Efanor. He’s twenty pounds worth of adorable. He and his adopted sister, Ysabel, travel with us everywhere.  They have somewhere in the neighborhood of 100,000 miles logged in the car by now. His favorite foods are Whataburger chicken strips and Smoochies.

Let’s see…anything else? Oh, yeah, I love to hear from people! I love insights and opinions. Please feel free to leave comments, just keep them polite and remember, we’re all people with feelings.

About the SlideShows:

These have become such an important part of the blog that I would be highly remiss not to give credit where it’s due. They are done with the WordPress addon NextGen Gallery:

It’s capable of much more than I’m doing with it, but right now, getting the covers done takes precedence over making the plugins work to their maximum effect!
