- For years, Theran Novan wrote for her own amusement. A true child
of the seventies, she often wrote scripts for television shows, reaching
back to classics like "Get Smart" and other comedies. The television
and the stories in her head were often her only companions, as she was
diagnosed with cancer at the age of eleven, and spent much of her childhood
and teens in therapy. Adulthood and remission coincided, and TN, as
her friends call her, pursued two careers - first managing major conventions
and events in the Columbus Ohio area and then going back to school to
become a police officer. Unfortunately, her cancer re-emerged and one
day, while undergoing treatment, her friends brought her a computer.
At the same time, she became addicted to a new television show - Xena,
Warrior Princess. The whole world of fan fiction opened up, and a supportive
global community came to recognize her as a real talent.
