| [[File:akki14.jpg|200px|thumb|right]] Hello! I'm Heather aka Akki14 on IRC and here. You can just call me Akki or Mrs. S or Heather. It's pronounced Ah-key and it's from Jane Yolen's Dragons Blood novels. I liked the character because she's a bit headstrong and independent which I always hoped to be (and may slowly be getting to that point after a decade or so).

| I have lots of different interests, ranging from domestic, to science, to the arts.

| [http://www.stargazy.org Stargazy Photography] is my website. I make cyanotypes and use a big (sort of) 4x5inch sheet film camera.

| == Stuff I'd like to donate but do not think there is space in The Space for it yet ==
| |
|
| |
| * small (medium format film size) contact printing frames once we have a darkroom going in the Wet Room so we can use it for making alt process prints (cyanotypes, van dyke brown prints, etc.)
| |
| * Possibly a medium format (120 film) Brownie camera or two for people to use/abuse, probably more useful once we have the darkroom/Wet Room up and running.

| == Box Location ==
| |
|
| |
| Using the new labelling system - s09b12. I like occasional gifts and surprises (<b>nice</b> surprises, no dead bugs etc, please. They won't scare me, they're just a bit gross :/)
| |
| Please don't put things on top of my box! I am quite short and it's a bit of a stretch to get my box as it is without having to go find a chair to climb onto to take someone else's stuff off my box :(
