~*~About Joey~*~

I'm twenty-six, I'm a published author. My first book 'Blackout' was released on August 10th of 2005 and my second book, 'Dying Thoughts - First Touch' will hit the shelves in November this year (2008). I can be found on most days at my computer screen, typing frantically, working on my seventh book. I tried uni - aimed for a degree in Sociology and Health Studies, but never made it pass my first year, my health made me go part-time and then made me drop out. I miss uni.
I suffer from three chronic conditions which meant that I was retired from my job on medical grounds at nineteen. Since then, I've been an author and I think it's all I ever really want to do. I suffer from type one brittle asthma, Myalgic Encephalopathy aka M.E. and Fibromyalgia. If you want to know more about them, please read this entry. Due to these conditions I go around in the Flying Purple People Eater, the FPPE for short, and also know as my wheelchair. I have a list of 77 things I would like to complete before these illnesses win, they can be found here - any help is gratefully recieved. I'm also petitioning against a decision made by the NHS in regards to my health care, if you want to read and sign it, you can find that here. Thanks to anyone who lends a hand.
I am open about my conditions and the effect they have on my life - this can be scary for some people and off putting, so I ask that before you click that little button to add me as a friend you realise that I will not filter anything from you. Don't like that? Simple, don't click.

Want to know more about me before adding me? Use the Joey FAQ for all your queries, you can even submit your own questions to be answered if the answer you need isn't there!

I write fanfiction for several fandoms and all of this can be found at my fandom journal [info]joeybug_fandom. All entries are public but it's best to friend it if you want to read the latest Joey!fic.

* Someone who has, in the past, stabbed me in the back and twisted the knife round for that extra feeling of complete and utter bitchiness.
