Author has written 34 stories for Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Battlestar Galactica: 2003.

I'm not going to bore anyone with personal information: everything in my profile is related to the fics below it!

This above all - updates! I know that people are waiting for updates of particular stories, and these may take quite a while. I can gurantee that I am almost always writing, but I am working on three different projects at the moment - The Best Ship of All, In the Forests of the Night, and A Lost Generation; for those of you awaiting updates, please bear in mind that some of these fics are far more complex and involved than others, and thus take longer to update, but I promise I am always working.

For those of you who've noticed that Freedom From Fear and In The Forests of the Night contradict each other at various points even though they're supposed to be companion stories - don't worry. I have already begun the process of revising In The Forests of the Night (currently the first fifteen chapters are in a revised condition) to reconcile the differences between them. I have not abandoned my Lord of the Rings fics, I promise, and there is a third fic in this series to come eventually - once I have completed the revision of In the Forests of the Night.

My Grimmauld Place series, describing the friendship (friendship, not any kind of love relationship by the way - Ginny is fourteen!) of Ginny and Sirius, is now complete. There are seven stories, in the following order: Arrival in Grimmauld Place, Teatime in Grimmauld Place, Cleaning Grimmauld Place, Uncertainty in Grimmauld Place, Departure from Grimmauld Place, Evening in Grimmauld Place, and the final (now AU) fic Should Auld Aquaintance Be Forgot.

I have written two Harry/Ginny fics - now AU - Men Love With Their Eyes and The Slimmest, Wildest Chance: a note on timeline issues. The Slimmest, Wildest Chance takes place in the year between chapter nine of Men Love With Their Eyes and the epilogue.

Finally, my ongoing fic The Best Ship of All, about the friendship of Ginny and Hermione, although an independent story, takes its starting point from the fic Essential Medicine for Ordinary Witches.
