Introduction Cynical Woman is really Helen E. H. Madden, a stay-at-home mom who also works as a writer and graphic artist. I work in the scandelous field of erotica (oh my!), as well as the often disdained fields of science fiction and fantasy. When I'm not busy trying to civilize my children, I'm either writing or working on my art. When I'm not doing that, I'm usually at the dojo kicking ass (my own more often than not).
Interests Computer graphics, writing, digital painting, animation, 3D artwork, Poser, ZBrush, Bryce, Carrara, Flash, karate, science fiction, fantasy, murder mysteries, reading.
Favorite Movies Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, LOTR Fellowship Of The Ring, Army Of Darkness
Favorite Music Young Dubliners, Great Big Sea, Sheryl Crow, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, the Wiggles
Favorite Books The Gate To Women's Country by Sherri S. Tepper, Delusion's Master by Tanith Lee, Tam Lin by Pamela Dean, the Marcus Didius Falco mystery series by Lindsey Davis, Brother Cadfael mysteries by Ellis Peters, Amelia Peabody mysteries by Elizabeth Peters

You've rented a sky-writer to propose to your significant other, but it's completely overcast. What will you do?

Hit him over the head and carry him off caveman style. Why bother with a proposal when he already knows it's too late to escape?
