| Gaby Black |
Author has written 37 stories for Harry Potter, and Lord of the Rings. I am retiring from fanfiction; Uni & life in general just take all my time. I'll ocasionally pop by every once in a while, but I won't be writing any new stories. I will try to finish Twenty Five Hours a Day, because I don't want to keep my nice reviewers hanging, but I have no idea when I'll manage to finish it. I'm really sorry. I love you all; reviews will always be treasured! I am French. Native language is French. July, 23rd: okay, it seems that I'm back, for a while at least. Not sure what you should expect, though. I'd like to write more Sirius/Venus but I've just scribbled out a few words with no real inspiration, and I have no idea what I'm going to do about Twenty-Five Hours a Day. Might finish it, might not. As you might have seen, I've posted a new oneshot, There's no such thing as a kind Sirius Black, but it's a bit of cheating since 70 of it was written last year; I was tired of having it half written on my computer so I decided to finish it, but it's not new. For those of you who are interested, I posted other Sirius/Venus fics on another account that I won't publish here. I'll also post there a few unreleased drabbles (including a Remus/Sirius one). I, Gaby Black, do solemnly swear to review all the fics I read, Help us spread the the review love! I, Gaby Black, have challenged myself! I'm proud to be a part of the Harry Potter Fanfiction Challenges forum | |||||||||||
