Author has written 24 stories for Harry Potter, Avatar: Last Airbender, Lost, A song of Ice and Fire, and Legend of Korra.

Hi, I'm Alison. I have probably lurked your fandom. Many times. If you've read any of my stories published before 2008-ish, I apologize and I will personally send you some sporks so you can gauge your eyes out of their sockets. I mostly keep them up for sentimental value. That's not weird, right? Haha.
