My Background
I’m Emma, and I am based in west Central Scotland. I have been writing for fun for over a decade, but have decided to take it seriously as a career path. I am a qualified vet since 2009 but my health has been declining, making the job more and more difficult for me to manage. Unsurprisingly, I love animals, and I love helping people as well. I made this choice because it meant I could use another one of my passions to help people. I am just embarking on this journey, but I can promise a quick, professional and quality service for a reasonable price.
Other Hobbies
As for what else I do? Well, I also run a small online craft shop where I sell items I make, patterns and provide free patterns and tutorials. You can view that one here: FelisSilvestris Crochet and Craft. I am in the process of launching a blog alongside this website.
Any other hobbies? I am a cosplayer, having been a long time fan of the musical Cats, that is where I focus but I have done other cosplays as well. That allowed me to learn a host of new skills: I can turn my hand to sewing, knitting, foam crafting, wig making and styling and other skills. Video games are another passion, particularly partial to a good fantasy RPG, the Fallout series and the Pokemon series. I’ve been playing the games since 1997, so I’m not going to stop now. I might be dating myself a little there, but I’ve always enjoyed the games.

Fallout New Vegas – Act One
Ain’t That A Kick In The Head Fallout New Vegas’s act one makes a bold choice in the opening. Your character is shot in the head and buried in a shallow grave! Of course, you survive this otherwise the game would be pretty short and boring. It’s an interesting way to introduce the inciting incident,…
