Who's Doctor Who? - Who IS Louise Lobinske?

The Eight Doctors

Another Obligatory Personal Page

I'm your new host, Louise Lobinske. Thanks for visiting Who's Doctor Who. For those of you interested in the lives of yet another total stranger, I'm 56 years old, married, and childfree. I grew up in Maine; when I was 18 my parents moved to Florida for their health and dragged me with them. I went to Oberlin College for a year and was "withdrawn". A few months after I came back to Florida, I met the man who would become my husband, Richard Lobinske. (Richard and I met on stage, and that's a whole other story...) Besides Allen and other friends, Richard introduced me to another group of weirdos called the Society for Creative Anachronism, where, when I show up, I'm known as Lady Krystyna Czartoryska (it takes a weirdo to know a weirdo). I'm an editor and proofreader by trade, and a writer and lots of other things at heart. I don't think I have a favorite Doctor, to be honest - I like them all. My other favorite sci-fi and fantasy shows include Babylon 5, most incarnations of Star Trek, Red Dwarf, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Lucifer. My favorite SF and fantasy writers include Neil Gaiman, Anne Rice, Orson Scott Card, and Roger MacBride Allen. My major was in journalism (at least the major I got the AA in - the others were creative writing, microbiology, chemistry, computational biology, and creative writing again, which if you count it twice, makes six majors. I also have ADHD, which should surprise no one). I've known how to play the piano since I was eight, although I'm mostly out of practice. My favorite books include The Scarlet Pimpernel (read it four times - a record for me), Longitude (read it in three days - another record), and I'm currently making my way through the Wonderland series by Irina Shapiro. My other hobbies include ancient Egypt, mahjong games, and sudoku, which I got hooked on in a week and a half (five years after everyone else, which is about my speed). Thanks again for visiting and I hope you enjoy Who's Doctor Who.

If I may, I'd like to include links to my blogs and Patreon:

Kemetic vs. Atheist - Allen was an atheist. I tried it for a while, but went in a different direction. This site is where I talk about both religion and atheism.

Full-Throated Feminism - Where I talk about feminism (and other stuff, because I feel like two blogs is probably enough)

My Patreon - where I post some poetry and photography

Thank you for your time.
