| Minisinoo |
Author has written 36 stories for X-Men: The Movie, X-Files, Ultimate Marvel, X-Men, Harry Potter, and Twilight. Minisinoo has been writing fiction since she was eleven years old and got bored with the usual "write a sentence which uses this vocabulary word" exercise in 6th grade English class. Her sentences turned into paragraphs, and the paragraphs turned into little stories . . . and she just kept on telling stories for the next 30+ years. She comes by storytelling honestly, having been born into a family of storytellers. In native tradition, storytelling is "sacred business." Sure, storytellers entertain, but Min likes to tell stories that might actually "mean something," too (and how's that for arrogant?). Min has penned a WHOLE heck of a lot X-Men, Harry Potter & Twilight stories (shorts, series novellas, and even full-length novels), and has been given over 25 different awards and a wide variety of recs and reviews. Not all her stories are available at ff.net. In fact, many aren't, especially the longer pieces (Aorist Subjunctive, Grail in full, Special, Climb the Wind, An Accidental Interception of Fate in full, Lightning Over Elk River, etc.). Please visit her website, "The Medicine Wheel," to find them. Pay attention to warnings, as Min writes literary mainstream adult fiction by trade, and not everything is suitable for minors. | |||||||||||
