| Introduction | I'm an old guy (sixty in the picture, 63 now) who developed a serious interest in manga and anime at the end of the Nineties, when I started writing one of the longer cycles of Sailor Moon fanfictions on the web. I have a girlfriend more or less my own age I've lived with for twenty years, and a couple of grown sons. |
