I once was Young, Handsome, even Pretty. Now, I'm Old, Bald and Wrinkled with Bulging eyes and Sagging Ears and a very Pointy Nose. But don't judge me by how I look; I have great powers you would not believe, so if you piss me off I could turn you into a tree, or even make you look, just like me!
A note to any who happen to read this FF(dot)net Profile/Bio page.
Although, FF(dot)net is a very popular FF web site, it lacks two very fundamental things which would make it so much better. Those being the ability to change the page background colors and the ability to ARCHIVE the entire story in the same way that (Click for an example) -> HPFandom does their ARCHIVING of chapters and the whole story. So. . . Please consider posting your stories there as well, it will also increase your reader audience. Anyway, just a suggestion to help people like me that like to save a good story to a private archive without the mundane, boring and repetitive need to copy every single chapter, one at a time. Especially for those good stories that have many, many, many, many, many, many, many, but SHORT chapters. You know who you are. LOL
Thanks in advance for at least considering this option.

If you could read that you may want to put it in your profile. However, note that a text2speech engine makes it sound like a strange, but very funny, Alien language.
But, of course I'm fluent in Type-O; I read fanfiction every day!
Stories Ideas I'm Working on.
"Harry Potter in the SOS Potter"
(Wip) Sci-Fi/Action/Adventure/Humor/Drama/Mystery - Episodes 1 & 2 (Complete) - An Episodic type of story line with each episode expected to be around 25,000 words give or take. Harry ends up getting abducted by your garden variety "Extra-terrestrial Aliens" and accidentally kills them in a state of panic and fear. He then tours this ship and gains an understanding of how everything works and discovers what their original mission was. Feeling responsible for their deaths, he assumes control of the ship and enlists the aid of a few new crew members to continue the original mission as well as explore the general universe in his spare time. Murphy's Law has a habit of turning up at the most inopportune moments, creating some unexpected or unanticipated problems for the new crew as time passes. Chapters: 6/2 Episodes - Words: 48,321 so far. Updated: 1-5-08: - Published: 9-8-07: Chapter 7 or Episode 3 next.
"Harry Potter in Switched"
(Wip) General/Drama/Fantasy - What Harry and Albus might do if they had their essences, switched into each others bodies at the time Harry turned 10 years old. A year before Harry is to attend Hogwarts. Harry, in Albus body, sets out to correct some of the mistakes Albus managed to make, regarding Harry, while Albus sets out to regain his lost Magic; in the process he enlarges Harry's Magical core and ability, thinking he may have to, or perhaps get the chance, to live a new life in Harry's body. Albus/Harry's Magical core is only the size of a large garden pea, where Harry/Albus has a core the size of a large basketball. Much larger than the normal adult Wizard core of a grapefruit size. (They say, size does not matter, but that is far from the truth, now isn't it? At least, based on the millions of Spam e-mails we receive about enlarging your...AHEM... CORE, that is.) Anyway, little does Albus or Harry know that this switch will not last forever. When they get switched back, Harry will have been given a great advantage, unplanned by Albus while he is practicing wand-less Magic to increase the boy's Magical core while stuck at the Dursley's, in an attempt to regain his own Magical power as well as, control these Dursley's and make his own life a bit less unpleasant while he is there. Chapter: 5 next - Words: 5,739 - Reviews: climbing - Updated: 7-9-08 - Published: 4-10-08
"Humpty Dumpty Syndrome"
(Complete) AU/Humor/Parody. The result of (too much) Harry-Potter-Fan-Fiction-Addiction; can also be found at the above link and my Yahoo Group. A parody of this alternate universes (H.P.F.F.A) = Harry Potter Fan Fiction Addiction. (H.D.S) = Humpty Dumpty Syndrome & (M.I.D.O'Rs) = Medication Induced Delusion O'Ramas. Our universe has also been infected by these, perhaps to a lesser degree. So practice "CONSTANT VIGILANCE" just incase.
A Few Recommended Authors and Stories - Undated (June 22 2008).
Although these Authors and their stories need no additional advertising or promotion by me or anyone else, there are often new people that come onboard to Fanfiction.net and may not have heard of these great Stories or Authors, as yet. I humbly place the Authors URL here as Recommended Reading to any that happen by this page.
Read anything that Nonjon writes. He is in my opinion, a remarkably, deranged, demented, insane genius, especially at Harry Potter Humor. From his first posted none-humor story of "Freedom of Apathy" and its part 2, "Apathy of Freedom," then to his humor in the 3 part "Cheekquel Project" with the first one titled "Where in the World is Harry Potter". While the second one just bares the no-name "The Untitled Cheekquel Project" and then there is the third and final one in this series titled "You Did What!" Where no one is safe when Harry happens. (Trust me here, NO ONE IS SAFE). And then there is his "Dimension Hopping for Beginners" to injest; then on to his latest bag of nutz creation titled "A Black Comedy". He is Fan Fictions number one humor writer with a vast network of fans, and in my humble opinion, could easily win several awards for his unique brand of insane humor. ( http://www.fanfiction.net/u/649528/nonjon )
Another great story teller is Rorschachs Blot. Amoung his many writings is a story called "Make A Wish" and its sequel "The Hunt for Harry Potter" featuring Harry Potter with a new identity thrust upon him as he travels about the world trying to be. . . "just a guy on vacation", who has the most unusual things happen all around him as he travels. About the only thing he actually doesn't trip over, is a "Maxwell Smart Shoe Floo. " (My personal Favorite of his writings). A must read Harry Potter Adventure, crawling with happenstance, stumble upon, humor. He also has the most active Yahoo Group I have ever run across. ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CaerAzkaban/ ) With more than 8,0 0 0 members and climbing and more than 56,0 0 0 messages posted by the time I wrote this. He manages to average 100+ messages posted every day. Quite the active community, astonishing actually, more than I can keep up with. And here is his FFnet stories posting page. --> ( http://www.fanfiction.net/u/686093/Rorschachs_Blot )
Phoenix Catcher the British Crossover King seems to have a couple dozen or more clones at his disposal based on the number of stories he is writing simultaneously. Currently, 23 WIP with 2 complete stories. This British Author/Artist only 21 years old, there abouts, real name 'Mark' has created a number of remarkably good Harry Potter crossover stories. There are far too many to mention here so just pick your favorite crossover theme from his vast selection. Although, most of my favorites are in his WIP catagory, "Fighting The Gods", "Cast Between Worlds", "Outsiders" to name three of them and he has two completed stories "The Lord Of Stone Tower" and most recently "Fate's Ripple". How he manages to keep his mind/s on all of these is a wonder of the Universe to me. See for yourself at. . .( http://www.fanfiction.net/u/468737/phoenix_catcher )
Bob and Alyx also known as Bobmin and (Bobmin356 here on FFnet) have some of the most fascinating and well known, well written masterpieces of Harry Potter Fan Fiction on the internet. They write great humor but also like to write pairings. Many of their pairings are of H/Hr; or, as I like to call them, "Harry and the Herminator." All of their stories are very enjoyable reads. Although you may, in some cases have to be of age, join in and sign in, to read these fabulous stories at --> ( http://bobmin.fanficauthors.net/ ) ( http://www.fanfiction.net/u/777540/Bobmin356 ) They are all, well worth the effort.
Now a Star Wars Series by "KittandChips". Titled the "Force Bond Series." This series contains 4 main stories with 8 sub-stories, set between the 2nd and 3rd parts of this series. It is a Luke/Vader, Father/Son bonding series by this remarkable Author. (no slash here) Contains 12 completed stories in total, so far, with more sub-stories possibly on the way. A highly recommended read for any Luke/Vader fans. ( http://www.fanfiction.net/u/56197/KittandChips )
Another great Series of Star Wars Stories is by Author TamsynDell called "The Jedi Path Series" with 9 completed stories and a 10th in the works. A very enjoyable Action, Adventure, Mystery series with many twists and turns. ( http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1068423/TamsynDell )
My list is far too long to list all of them here with a summery but this is plenty to get any new comers started with great stories to read.
To see a more complete listing of my recommended readings just go to my published Book Case. There you will find many more stories all linked up to their Authors and/or Stories, including some Star Gate and Star Wars Fan Fiction as well as some of these crossed over with Harry Potter.
Cheers and enjoy.
