Nothing much to tell: I'm a eighteen-year-old girl, I like Harry Potter, I like writing; ergo, sometimes I write about Harry Potter. Well, not so much about Harry -- I like Hermione better as a protagonist.

While I have no real ship preference, I especially enjoy strange or unlikely pairings. That said, I'm not a big fan of canon ships. For instance, I love Ron's character, but I dislike him intensely when paired with Hermione.

Finally, I'm not much of a regular updater. My free time is limited, and -- furthermore -- I'm only able to write when I feel like it. Also, my muse has the irritating characteristic of not respecting time-lines of any sort, so while my computer is full with random scenes for all of my fics, I find it hard to sit down and write what will happen the next chapter, and not fifteen chapters from now. Thus, while I won't give up on my fics, there might be large gaps of time between post and post. I regret it, and really wish I could be tidy and methodical in that way, but I'm not.

And that's that, I guess. I hope you'll enjoy my work.

News and Summaries

I've just started a Hermione/Salazar fic. This pairing is a personal favorite of mine, so I do hope you like it.

The Ghost of You: As expected by Hogwarts’s masses, Hermione Granger is made Head Girl. She'll now have to learn to deal with classes, homework, her new Head duties, and saving the world... all the while tolerating some very unwelcome roommates. Head Boy Draco Malfoy is one of them. Four opinionated portraits and an arrogant ghost who won't leave her alone are the others. Unfortunately, this ghost’s eternal fate just may happen to lie on Miss Granger’s overworked shoulders.

Another thing; for those who are reading A Black Secret, I've started one of a series of one-shots that precede A Black Secret, and sort of explain how the characters got to be where they are. For instance, why Dumbledore is alive, why Snape is a good guy, and why Draco and Narcissa have been brought into the Order. I might also write a few of Snape, Narcissa, Regulus, Antares and Callista's life at Hogwarts and after Hogwarts. Lily, the Marauders and some other characters might get a cameo.

The first of these one-shots is Rekindled Trust.

Rekindled Trust: Narcissa comes to Snape to ask him a favor. A Black Secret's version of HBP's chapter Spinner's End, AU from HBP's original scene. SS/NM friendship.

Lots of you have been asking why I haven't been updating and I don't blame you; it's been a loooong time. I know you might be very frustrated but have mercy on my poor, overcaffeinated soul: I'm in my last two weeks of my 'official' senior year and the work load is insane. And the IB diploma program? Just like suicide, only not as quick and painless. Anyways, just bear with me for a while; I will not abandon my fics. I have waaay too many notes, ideas and time invested in them.

On the mean time, you might want to check out Proonnggs, who's translating some of my fics in French. Coward is already up. Isn't that cool?

Love you all.

Cheers,

Alex.
