Open Mini Bio
Born in the USSR. Israeli. Multilingual linguaphile. Fannish butterfly.

If I've subscribed to you it's probably because I'm interested in some aspect of what you write about in your journal. There's no obligation to reciprocate.

Feel free to subscribe/unsubscribe from my journal at any time.

A more detailed intro post can be found here.

On LJ my personal journal is [livejournal.com profile] sabrina_il (I also used to have [livejournal.com profile] all_my_fandoms as a fannish journal, but currently only my BSG stuff is housed there). All my fic is also at the AO3 at [archiveofourown.org profile] marina.

On Tumblr, I am [tumblr.com profile] pitchercries. On Twitter you can find me at [x.com profile] sabrina_il_.

I welcome people making fanworks based on my fanfic (podfic, fanart, fanmixes, etc). If you create something based on or inspired by my work I'd love to get a link to it when it's posted.

There are books so alive that you're always afraid that while you weren't reading, the book has gone and changed, has shifted like a river; while you went on living, it went on living too, and like a river moved on and moved away. No one has stepped twice into the same river. But did anyone ever step twice into the same book?
-Marina Tsevetayeva, 1937

What seas what shores what grey rocks and what islands
What water lapping the bow
And scent of pine and the woodthrush singing through the fog
What images return
O my daughter.
-T.S. Eliot, Marina
