General biography

A happily married mother of three and a stay-at-home mom, Tikatu writes Thunderbirds fanfiction, most often of the TV-verse category. She also moderates or co-moderates several fandom specific MSN groups, and is webmistress for an AU fandom role playing site that has original characters in addition to the canon ones.

She was possibly introduced to Thunderbirds fandom by seeing the show during its first run, back in the mid-1960s. However, she remembers watching the show during her college years, and in 2003, was reintroduced to Thunderbirds in the form of the DVD collection. Shortly thereafter, she wrote her first fanfiction.

She was a moderator at the now defunct MSN group, Thunderbirds World (one of the first fandom messageboard sites). Her fan fictions are archived on FanFiction.net, FicWad, Fanfics.org and Lunaescence, and she has some original fiction on FictionPress.com. She was a member and moderator at FanLib. In every place her stories are archived, they are under the penname Tikatu. As of this edit, she has over 1 million words archived on FanFiction.net alone.
