Author has written 24 stories for Ballykissangel, and Harry Potter.

Since I see some people have checked on my profile page, I supposed I should actually put something on it.

I'm a stay-at-home mum of two children and I'm actually much too old to be doing stuff like this. I spend most of my kid-free time doing real-life editing and translations (German-English) as well as doing beta reading and writing my own fan fics. I've also tried to write some original stuff, but somehow that never gets finished. Know the feeling? I also do fic intake on FictionAlley. (Some of you may recognize my name if I've had to ding you for SPaG!)

I used to be obsessed with Ballykissangel, but now I've set sail on the SSHG ship and I have no intention of disembarking any time soon. I still maintain the largest and best BallyK fan fic archive right here. (Shameless plug.)

I have a Master's degree in Applied Linguistics (TESOL) and a B.A. in Linguistics, and I'm just telling you that to intimidate you. All that really means is that I used to know a gerund from a participle at one time, but that was years ago.

I hope you have fun reading some of my stuff, since I had fun writing it!

P.S. I love the new reader traffic stats here on ff.net! Who's the one Swiss person who's reading my stuff?? :-)
