Author has written 50 stories for Merlin, Torchwood, and True Blood. As well as now writing Merlin stories, I have done a fair bit of Torchwood FF on the site 'Teaspoon And An Open Mind' under the penname Danse Macabre. Might post a bit of that on here as well. I use fan fiction to keep my mind writing while I'm doing other things, like editing the novels I have written and hope to get published someday. Playing with characters that are not my own keep my thoughts going, and it really is a good way to test how you write, what ideas you can use and get good feedback. Reviewers always really help me hone what I need to know, show where my strengths are, and what bits I might need to concentrate on, and really help shape my style. I need you guys... And don't worry, even if I do not update a story in a while, it is not forgotten I still chip away at all of them... sometimes I need to write something else to get my mind going. I do not give up on any of them. Someone suggested in a review (sorry, I can't remember who , and I'm too lazy to go looking now, I'll track it down later,) that I list the Exile series in order in my profile, so it's easy for people to work out, so. It is the only series I have so. Exiles Series The Scheme of Things Hard Choices The Order of Things A Close Shave Snowed In The Battle for Camelot Blossoming. Release I'm also playing with the new images function, but I'm not using anything to do with the TV. All the pictures are animals from the farm I work at. As a basic rule I am using them to signify things. Dandelion - the Alpaca; is my avatar. The Fox - represents stories that are finished. I am hunting for things to represent the 'Obligations' and 'Exiles' series'. When I find them, I will load them up. | |||||||
