Author has written 53 stories for Star Wars, Harry Potter, Misc. Movies, To Kill a Mockingbird, House, M.D., Sherlock, and Avengers.

Hey, I'm Rachel. I can't believe that I have been writing and reading fanfiction for almost four years now. I absolutely love it!

Harry Potter is generally all I write, with a few other random fandoms tossed in. I write as a creative outlet, and also because I simply fall in love with various characters and just have to get new stories for them written down. I sincerely hope you enjoy my stories - leave me a review if you are so inclined :)

I have challenged myself! I am part of the Harry Potter Fanfiction Challenges Forum! I find it insanely addicting.

I am now open for beta requests.
