Author has written 35 stories for Newsies, Big Time Rush, Star Trek: 2009, Invader Zim, Firefly, Velvet Goldmine, Black Donnellys, and Harry Potter.

So I have this problem where I write for every fandom ever, basically. So if you know I like a fandom and want me to write something for it, I most likely will.

Hi, I'm Gwendolyn and I'm a 19-year-old college student, living in sunny CA.


I have a problem with updating, and I really apologize for that. One day I will update, I swear.


1. Dear Someone, Year 1 reviews
My name is Remus Lupin and, to put it in the most cliché terms as possible, this is my story.

2. As Men Lay Weeping » reviews
High school was not Spot Conlon's forte. It wasn't as if he were dumb, because he wasn't— he just hated it. Leaving Brooklyn to go to a pretentious prep school in Manhattan made his hatred even more pronounced. He was going to be bored out his mind this year, he just knew it. A high school AU— Spot Conlon centric; gen for now.

3. Silence of the Disillusioned reviews
When Spot got truly livid, he didn't yell or throw or drink or do anything expected of him. Instead, he got quiet. Quiet to the point where being a room alone would be better than being with him for company. This tale has everything and nothing to do with that fact. Modern day Spavid.
