Author has written 32 stories for Dragon Age, Sex and the City, M*A*S*H, Breakfast Club, Pride and Prejudice, Trixie Belden, and Downton Abbey. Writing these stories has given me great joy, and I'm thrilled that I've been able to pass some of that on to my readers. I am deeply grateful to each and every person who has taken an interest in my work. Your encouragement and support and enthusiasm and advice and suggestions all make this experience the thrill that it is. Happy reading! Most of what I post goes through rigorous betaing by WellspringCD or Oleander's One. Both are tremendously talented authors - do yourself a favor and go check out their stories! I see external links are back in the profiles, which means I can again send you to see this beautiful picture of Alistair and Thora, of the Fate series, drawn by Dasque. While you're at it, definitely check out her art and stories - you'll be glad you did. "... an hour ago there had been no poems, and now they came like rain and were real ..." A.S. Byatt, Possession "For each of us, when our day's work is done, must seek our ideal, whether it be love or pinochle or lobster a la Newburg, or the sweet silence of the musty bookshelves." O. Henry, "The Social Triangle" "There is never enough time for writing; it is a parallel universe where the days, inconveniently, are also twenty-four hours. Every moment spent in one's real life is a moment missed in one's writing life, and vice versa." Gish Jen General disclaimer: These are works of fanfiction. I do not own the characters and settings in the stories below; I make no attempt to profit from them. | |||||||
