ABOUT ME:
Hey everyone I'm anaticulapraecantrix which is Latin for "Little Duck Witch." Thanks for stopping by at my profile.

I've been on ff.net since 2001! I originally wrote NSYNC fanfic when they allowed real person fics, it was so unfortunate they had to delete my few old fics. I am so mortified they even existed. Now I happily write in the fandom universe that is known as Harry Potter. I hope to one day venture out into other fandoms; we'll see how the plot bunnies roll in.

I am 20 years old and am in my third year at college studying biochemistry and cell biology and minoring in history. Luckily it's close by to my house. And on the coast. So it's not too hard to drag myself off to school. The evil thing about college: no time for fanfiction writing. So the updates will probably be few and far between. And who knows when a new story bug will bite.

I am most likely to be found lurking about the internet or staring off into space plotting my next chapter of a story. When I think a little too much about my stories, I usually have dreams about what to do next. Which really helps when one is stuck as what to write.

NOTE 11/9:
The Black Parade is now complete! Please read and review.

Stories:

Catalyst (One Shot):
AU. We've always wondered just what set Severus Snape into working for Albus Dumbledore as a spy against Lord Voldemort. What was the event that lead him to the light side. Written pre-DH.

Harry Potter and His Fifth Year (COMPLETED):
AU 5th Year Fic. Harry returns from his fourth year to find himself being haunted not onlyby Cedric's death but the burning and killings in Muggle towns. The threat of an ex-convict godfather no longer threatening, his Uncle takes up on abusing Harry. Voldemort learns of a new spell to use on Harry and it's working. Harry will have to try hard in his fifth year not to fail or the wizarding and Muggle worlds will fall...

Harry Potter and the Snake's Veil (COMPLETED):
AU 6th Year Fic. Harry Potter had the worst summer without his godfather around. Still stuck at the Dursley's, Harry has barely heard any news from the Order. The Dursleys feel no sympathy toward the sixteen year old boy. On the day of September 1, Harry Potter never made it to King's Cross Station. Five months later, he is finally rescued from Voldemort's mansion. Relive those fateful five months and see if Harry can make it out of there unscathed. Based on a few dreams I had.

My Father's Blood (One Shot):
Short story based during the movie. Will asks Captain Jack about his father. A little insight to Bootstrap Bill...This was an english assignment. It was actually published in my school's literary magazine. Whee.

The Black Parade (COMPLETED): (Updated: 11/9)
AU Post 6th Year Fic. Based off the album of the same name, Harry now leads the reinstated Dumbeldore's Army in the fight against Voldemort. The search for the Horcruxes has become increasingly harder as the battles follow suit. Harry is forced to balance the time fighting on the battlefield with time spent with Ginny. It's becoming too hard to handle both. Written pre-DH.
