Author has written 20 stories for Newsies, Chronicles of Narnia, Bible, Robin Hood, Inception, and Avengers.

If you came here for information about me, let me ask you the following questions: Are you a government agent? Are you a creepy stalker? Do you know anything about quantum physics? If yes to the first two questions, leave now. If yes to the last question, can you please explain it to me? 'Cause I definitely don't.

What all of that means is this: I enjoy illegal activities, I do not enjoy stalkers, and I know barely enough math and science to scrape by. I'm more of an "artsy type". I like to read, write, sing, dance, act, draw...things like that.

I'm not really too terrifically active on FanFiction anymore. I used to be, but Life kicked in. I occasionally update old stories or start new ones, but only if I'm really inspired. I never do anything unless I'm inspired to do it.

My Muse inspires all my writings. His name is John Edward Conlon. (No relation whatsoever to Spot Conlon of Newsies.) He's a brilliant Muse, but he's forever running off just when I need him most (i.e., when an English essay is due) and then coming back and giving me flowers so I simply can't scold. He's terribly charming, and I really don't believe anything he says.

Thanks so much for stopping by my profile. Do drop a line sometime. I'll be more than happy to meet you.

1. Ships on Rocks » reviews
When I got the call, I couldn't believe it. Me, a superhero? Hah! Not likely. I wasn't a genius, I wasn't a ninja, I could shoot straight but not in battle, I wasn't a hunky god, I wasn't an undefeatable science project, and I couldn't turn into a huge green monster. What good was I to Nick Fury? T for "intense action sequences."

2. The Boring Life of a Newsie » reviews
Newsie. We think romance, hot guys living on the streets, and rescuing people usually teenage girls with horrible backgrounds and defending their territory! Meet someone who'll make you rethink all that. Meet Panther. As boring a newsie as you can get.

3. She Knew reviews
Even if everyone said she was afraid to face the truth...that wasn't why. It wasn't because she couldn't move on. It was because she knew. She knew he'd come back.

8. Decision to Die reviews
The rather extraordinary tale of how a little spitfire of a girl changed a certain King of Brooklyn's life. Tigress may not be exactly what you were expecting when you first heard the rumors from Snake and Fire... and not what Spot was expecting, either.

10. The Outsider reviews
Robin Hood gasped as an arrow hit a tree just before his nose. "Watch where you're going," a gruff Cockney voice said. Glancing around rather nervously, his gaze fell on what had to be one of the loveliest ladies he'd ever seen.
