Author has written 12 stories for Harry Potter.

(The above is not quite true; I have written over 50 stories for Harry Potter, Sherlock Holmes, Phantom of the Opera, and many others. See my old site at Alex the Anachronistic.)

... About Me ...

Greetings! Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile.

I have a little archive of Severus Snape Survival Stories. If you are upset about Severus Snape's death in DH, then you may be interested. It's a collection of stories that involve Snape in a Post-DH setting, alive or as a ghost. No portrait/afterlife stories. There may be some AU stories, and most of them will probably be EWE, so be forewarned. Managed by unswerving Snape fans, this archive will not feature anything but well-written, quality stories. K through M. HG/SS and other stuff.

I am an accredited Beta Reader on Perfect Imagination. See my Credential.

And, I do have a livejournal, which I update as sporadically as possible with my thoughts on various aspects of the Harry Potter universe. There's some interesting essays there. Add me if you like.

All my other links have been moved to My Online Directory.

... About Me and My Work ...

I have been a fanfiction writer since I was a little girl. I actually started by dabbling in the more esoteric medium of imaginary friends--I remember romping around my backyard with the Ace of Spades from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland and the Scarecrow from L. Frank Baum's The Wizard of Oz. Amongst these and other series, I interacted with characters from Gertrude Warner's The Boxcar Children, Reverend W. Awrdry's Thomas the Tank Engine, Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House on the Prairie, and J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan, along with the talking horses from C.S. Lewis' Narnia. I think a bunch of movie characters made frequent appearances, too, like all the 'good guys' from Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and innumerable Disney films. Oh, and I can't forget Barney the Dinosaur. These were the core of my amusement when I was young. A decade and a half later, they're rather unhappy at having been shoved away in my hope chest, but I'm in college now and I have real friends to deal with.

Nowadays, I indulge my whimsical fancies in fanfiction. I'm an ardent fan of Severus Snape. I love to read LE/SS and HG/SS, but I don't read smut. That's not to say I won't read a fic that's got smut in it, but I'll skip a chapter or part of a chapter that has the actual smut. If the entire chapter's smut, I won't review it. That's my policy, sorry y'all.

Other Ships: Snape with whomever you feel so inclined! Irma Pince, Minerva, Poppy Pomfrey, Narcissa Malfoy, etc. I especially love Snape/Luna. If it's got Snape in it, I'm willing to read it, unless it's pure slash. I'm straight, and I like Severus to be as well, but I'm willing to forgive him a minor deviation from the norm if ultimately he ends up fancying/with a female.

I love Luna Lovegood, and I prefer EWE Luna fics. Neville is my Partner of Choice for her, though I can see her in a relationship with almost anyone. Even Snape, if not especially Snape. Why does that idea repulse people? Luna's scarcely younger than Hermione, and more likely to bring him happiness. I wrote an essay on my livejournal concerning this: In Defense of Snuna. Let me know if you find any good Snuna fics; they're elusive.

As to non-HP stuff, I currently adore Phantom of the Opera, Sherlock Holmes, Victor Hugo, Agatha Christie, Shakespeare, and Lord Peter Wimsey, though good Snape stories are more prolific. As to American writers, I love Edgar Allen Poe, Mark Twain, L. Frank Baum, and John Steinbeck. I generally refuse to read Manga/Anime related fanfiction, and TV show-related will take a lot of convincing for me to pay any attention. (Unless it's something I know and love, like Get Smart or Gilligan's Island). I love musicals a lot, especially The Music Man, Wicked, The Phantom of the Opera, Hello Dolly and Les Miserables, though that list is not comprehensive. I'll give any writer a try, though, if it is understood that I am not reading his/her work for the sake of the content, but instead the form.

I really, really strive for originality. I don't want to give you something that you've seen before; if you see something that someone else has done, tell me, and I'll endeavor to change it. I'll accept some useful criticism, but I'm not interested in nitpicking. Britpicking, however, is wholly acceptable.

Okay, so I'll close this with a genuine note of thanks--for reading this page, and for hopefully reading my work.

I moved my Plot Bunnies here to LiveJournal, so you can find them here.
