Welcome to my profile page! If you want to contact me, my email is mgi at writeserve dot com.
In case you were wondering, the name Empress Felicity comes from one of our cats (now sadly deceased), who features as my avatar.
After gaining a science degree over two decades ago and having a number of "normal" jobs (mainly editing/teaching), I've realised that I'm not cut out for the conventional 9-5 and have ended up doing a bit of this and a bit of that for a living: selling women's retro clothing and collectibles online, secretarial work and freelance writing/editing. I am on Elance as writeserve31, if you want to invite me to do any work :)
