Who I am:

I am a hard working American woman, brown haired gray eyed like so many of my family. In fact you see me you see most of my cousins, aunts and mother. My family goes back a long way in America, on my father's side through a great grandfather I can trace my family back to the Mayflower. I am related to both famous and infamous people throughout history. since this nation was founded my ancestors have been involved in every single war, from the Revolutionary war where my ancestors supplied goods to the fledgling continental army all the way through Dessert Storm as my cousins are not old enough yet to serve. I am a fiercely patriotic American because of my history with this great land.

I am a Christian and will probably end up putting religious elements into my stories. My faith is very dear to me and though I love to share it with others I do understand that not everyone is interested or wants to hear what I have to offer. That is alright, in fact I try to practice Christianity as Jesus Christ taught it, he invited sinners and none believers to many of his suppers and led by example. That is why I accept those of other or no faith as everyone has to find their own way in this world. It’s how a Christian is suppose to live, with love and tolerance for all faiths, people and cultures.

What I hate in Fanfiction:

1. Slash, het or any homosexual relations, the only one in the books who was even hinted at as gay was Dumbledore and he never spoke about it at all! To have Harry with Draco or Ron or any other boy just is not going to work. Harry may be a bit clueless with girls (most teen boys are) but he likes them and would not shack up with Draco or Snape, that is just not going to happen at all!

2. Male Pregnancy, magic can do so many things but why do people feel the need to make a man pregnant? Not only is this not possible it is sick and wrong, I have no other words for it. A woman gets pregnant and has the child. If you have not learned this simple fact then you need to retake biology. Seriously just don’t write this as I think it makes you look stupid.

3. Making the Weasleys all bad, out for Harry’s money and slipping him love potions, a no, no and no. Yes they are imperfect, yes they have their own biases and such but they would not harm Harry, they love him and would protect him no matter what!

4. Making Ginny a horrible bitch who just wants to force Harry to be hers. Ah no, she was a fan girl as a little girl but she grew up and even dated others than him. She never expected him to date her much less marry her later. It was Harry that played with her heart (sure he did not mean it but he did you know he did) with his on again off again dating.

5. Making Snape Harry’s biological father, no, no, no. That just says horrible things about Lily that she was not loyal to James. Guess what? Lily loved James, Severus Snape was a childhood friend and even if they had dated it never would have gone anywhere. James grew up and became a good and noble man.

6. Making Snape a whiny “everything bad happens to me and I did not do a thing to deserve it” it may have worked at his trial had he lived but I am not buying it for a moment. Yes he gave his memories to Harry but they seemed awfully rehearsed, it was as if he wanted to mess with Harry one last time. Yes he loved Lily but I do not think he ever was weak not even as a boy, we saw James and Co get him powerless one time but Sirius did say he was well versed in the dark arts when he came to school and as Sirius was from a dark family he would know.

7. Mrs. Weasley as a hell bitch, sure she has a temper sure she can yell but she is a good woman and I like her! She cares so very much and does so much for others, how can you not like a motherly woman who is willing to feed you tea and cakes and let you talk to her and comfort you?

8. Evil Dumbledore after Harry’s money, life wanting to take over the world, no, he does not in cannon, sure he keeps everything close to the hip but he does mean well and is not evil or wicked. I have read only one or two fictions where he was truly evil that worked, Trio you know I am talking about A second Chance!

9. The Dursleys beating Harry to a pulp as he is growing up, most notably Vernon Dursley. Er no, the most he did in cannon was yell at Harry and make him stay in his “room”. Vernon would not have laid a hand on Harry to beat him as he was afraid of him (thanks to Petunia) yes he was afraid of Harry and that was why Harry was kept in a cupboard away from the rest of the family! He was not beaten to a pulp ever by them sure it makes a great plot but is not even close to cannon.

What I love in Fanfiction:

1. Harry and Ginny together. Yes folks I love this paring the best, Ginny is a sweet kind but strong girl. After all how many of you could survive being under the control of a murdering psychopath for a year and still function? Yea not so many right? She knows what Harry goes through and is perfect for him. I see them as soul mates.

2. The Weasleys I love the Weasleys, can I say more? They are a monetarily poor family but are good people and you cannot go wrong with them!

3. Severus Snape yes he was a bitter dark man who loved dark and evil things. Yet he was a good professor, excellent with potions and one hell of a fighter. He was a spy, a thankless job that may or may not have cost him his life in the end. He is not the stereotypical hero, he is dark, biting, cruel, violet and petty but one cannot help but like him. He is brutally honest, (unless in spy mode) and you will know if he likes you or not right away. Hugging him is a bad idea, getting him rare potions ingredients will earn you some grudging respect.

4. Remus Lupin yes he is a werewolf yes he can be dangerous but I like him! He helped Harry out so much and even spied for the order too. He showed a human side to his illness and shared his chocolate! How can you go wrong with that?

5. Sirius Black yes he can be annoying and rude and did try to use an unforgivable against Severus while Harry was watching. But you cannot deny he did care and he was a good man who suffered far too much in life.

6. Alastor Moody scarred, scary looking but I see him with a heart of gold. Still sick and suffering after his time under Crouches “tender care” he came to rescue Harry before Harry was to go back to school. There was little he was not willing to do to protect those of the light even giving his life as he did.

7. The Malfoys sure they were arrogant and did serve Voldemort, but not willingly. Okay so Lucius did until he saw what it would cost his family, he now owes his wife Narcissa his life as she saved Harry and in turn the world. Lucius did what he did for love of his family and Draco did the same thing when he became a death eater. It was all to save family and can you really blame them in the end? Would you not do the same to save your family if this was the only way?

Lots more than I can name here without boring you. :)

Plugs for My Own Fictions:

Of Lions and Wards: A New Home: In Harry’s third year at Hogwarts he finds out that Sirius Black is his godfather and an innocent man, Wormtail did not escape and was captured by Severus Snape and brought to face the ministry. Having enough of how Harry has been raised so far however is one Minerva McGonagall and he is sent to live with her for his own safety.Now some things will be cannon, they could be nothing less. Based on DH Dumbledore and Snape are more boss and employee. They are friendly but Snape never calls him Albus. Snape is cannon in his emotions and the way he acts as far as I see him in the books. He is a complex man and wonderfully so in his emotional range. There are DH spoilers too just to warn any who at this date have not read the last book.

Of Lions and Wards: The Heir Lost and Found: Harry was taken in by McGonagall at the end of his third year. Sirius Black was declared innocent but still is believed dead to the Wizarding world. Harry has survived his fourth year but barely, Voldemort is back to full power. To add to the tension he faces he knows why Voldemort wanted him dead having heard the full prophecy. Add to that a new defense against the dark arts teacher that is poison and new allies to help him through this year. To add to the mix a young child a boy will help soften and mend broken hearts…

Of Lions and Wards: The Lady of Darkness: Harry has defeated Voldemort in his fifth year, and Severus Snape is free from Voldemort and his followers are dead, reformed or had been working for either the ministry or the order. Yet Bellatrix Lestrange has taken over where Voldemort left off and with the remaining death eaters plans to take over the world.In the last book almost all the death eaters followed Lucius Malfoy when he left Voldemort. There are very few that followed Bellatrix but she is still very powerful, the remainder of the werewolves, vampires and other dark creatures that did not give up their evil ways have joined to her. Though the Dementors are largely destroyed that does not mean there are not a few left here and there. This story will deal with the deathly hallows, Bellatrix has found out about them and now she wants them to gain power over the Wizarding world and death. She believes that they can give her that power much as Grindlewald and even Dumbledore still does believe somewhat. A race to stop Bellatrix before she finds them is on the way.

All is Quiet at the Burrow: All Remus Lupin wanted was a nice peaceful afternoon of reading by the fire with a box of chocolates and good wine, but when Sirius Black and Severus Snape began to argue yet again he takes matters into his own hands…

Raven and Wolf: Severus Snape survives the bite of Nagini and though an unexpected and unwanted set of events he ends up in a new world. However, will he learn to live a real life or continue to live the haunted half life he has for the past 16 years?

Interogation and Veritaserum: When Severus Snape decides to switch sides after hearing part of the prophecy Moody knows he has to speak to the young man to make sure Dumbledore has made the right choice. The interogation shows us much of who Severus Snape really is.

And now for something by a dear friend on this sight:

Things that Professor Snape is no longer allowed to do at Hogwarts:
By excessivelyperky

1. Not allowed to sing “Black Powder and Alcohol” to the students. Especially not allowed to substitute ingredients that will result in napalm and methamphetamine instead.

2. Crucifying toads. Bad idea.

3. Not allowed to collect blood and/or hair samples from students or staff for potion-making. This includes Mrs. Norris.

4. Not allowed to train Hagrid’s pets into attacking Gryffindors.

5. May not call any members of the Ministry of Magic untrustworthy, corrupt slime. Not even Fudge. Ok, especially not Fudge.

6. Even if I still have the receipt for the last bribe I gave him from Lucius.

7. Must never tease Trelawney about what she puts in her incense.

8. May not sell any Weasley into slavery.

9. Gozer does not live in my supply cabinet. You’d be surprised what does, though.

10. The Forbidden Forest is not full of yummy candy, and it is wrong to tell first-years that it is.

11. I cannot trade McGonagall to the Death-Eaters for McNair, Avery, and a DE to be named later.

12. “Poppy” is Madam Pomfrey’s nickname, and not what she dispenses.

13. May not conduct psychological experiments on staff members or students.

14. I should not confess to crimes that took place before I was born.

15. While under Veritaserum.

16. 'To conquer the earth with an army of flying monkeys" is a bad long-term goal to give Lord Voldemort. Or Dumbledore, for that matter.

17. Rodents are not entitled to burial with full military honors, even if they are "casualties of war". Not even Pettigrew.

18. Not allowed to add 'In accordance with the prophesy' to the end of answers I give to a question Dumbledore asks me. Only Trelawney gets to do that.

19. Not allowed to purchase anyone's soul on school time.

20. Must wash my hair even if it tampers with my 'Sampson like powers'.

21. Must not taunt the Hufflepuffs.

22. Not allowed to appeal to mankind's baser instincts in Death-Eater recruiting posters. God only knows why.

23. Not allowed to put up Death-Eater recruiting posters on school property, not even in the Slytherin Common Room.

24. May not make posters depicting the leadership failings of my chain(s) of command. Neither Dumbledore nor Voldemort have any sense of humor that way.

25. It is better to beg forgiveness than to ask permission, no longer applies to Professor Snape.

26. There are no evil clowns living under my bed.

27. Except Peeves.

28. Nerve gas is not funny, not even at a Dark Revel.

29. Must not tell any Death-Eater that I am smarter than they are, especially if it's true.

30. Visiting Irish wizards are not after 'Me frosted lucky charms'. Now Flitwick, on the other hand, has a right to be worried.

31. Potions Class should not end in tragedy.

32. I may not produce or perform in “Hogwarts: The Full Monty”. Nor may I encourage any student or staff to do so.

33. Not even Madam Hooch.

34. May not use Harry Potter as a body shield if Voldemort invades the school.

35. May no longer decorate the Great Hall for any function.

36. May not give Professor Sprout any plant named “Audrey”.

37. May not feed Longbottom to “Audrey”.

38. May not bring Moaning Myrtle as my date to the Yule Ball.

39. May not put banned substances on the Gryffindor Quidditch brooms just before a match (see attached list).

40. May not encourage Fred or George Weasley to boobytrap the Sorting Hat.

41. May not bring Longbottom to any Death-Eater function in the hopes he will ‘fix’ Voldemort’s latest potion.

42. Even if the resulting explosion will leave a smoking crater a quarter-mile in diameter, thus resolving at least two of my major problems.

43. May not send a charmed rubber rat across the floor of the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom in hopes that Lupin will chase it.

44. Or send Sirius Black a flea collar in Extra Large. Though he could use it. “Dances with wolves, sleeps with fleas”.

45. When asked to give a few words at a ceremony or staff meeting, ‘Romper Bomper Stomper Boo' is probably not appropriate.

Besides, that’s Dumbledore’s job.
