User Profile

I'm Dani.

I'm a freelance illustrator and cartoonist, narrowly surviving in the wilds of New York City with my wits and sanity intact. When I grow up I want to tell stories about people that don't exist, histories that never were, and places that might have been. In comic form. Yeah, I'm a real big dork.

(I'm also that girl what created Penny Copper )

I live in Queens, with my ma, two awesome cats, transitory goldfish, sexy bettas, and a "lovely view" of the J train. I'm a snarky lefty brit-pop enthusiast; just your average socially awkward fat chick in chunky purple glasses. I'm taken. He's wonderful. <3. And while I'm not entirely certain why this is the sort of pertinent information I should be sharing with you here -- it fits, cha?

I draw cute, weird, and vaguely pornographic things, obsess over comics and the color pink, collect kitschy junk, and read more bad sci-fi and fantasy novels than a sane person should. Hello kitty is my homegirl, and I probably would have been sorted into Ravenclaw. I have never worked at Empire Records or the Moulin Rouge but I have worked at a gas station. I'm not a water-bender, but I appreciate bubblebaths immensely. My zanpakuto is probably heartshaped; I'd be the most useless shinigami ever. ;D

I flit in and out of fandoms like a perpetual tourist but I keep the dream alive. I'm an on-again-off-again costume maker specializing in haute coutre (jedi style) half-finished renne faire petticoats, and shinigami uniforms that would make Matsumoto blush. You may also know me as Klim. I have the most wonderfultastic friends ever. And I hate giant robots (though an exception has been made for the Megas.)

Also kittens.

This LJ is almost always public. I generally only use it to browse / maintain communities and make the occasional weird / obnoxious / announcement / art post. You are welcome to friend me, I'll give you the same courtesy.
