MINI-DIARY:

03/29/09

I'm so sorry for going AWOL. I am still alive, and trying to write now that school is winding down. I've posted up part of chapter 9 for Catch Me, as I feel incredibly bad that it hasn't been updated in forever. I want to get "Mine" completely finished in the next couple of months, but it's going slowly. Thank you for sticking with me, and reading my stories!

Chapter 13 of 'Mine' is FINALLY UP!! RL has been pretty brutal... I have gone back to school, and I ended up moving to a town about two hours from my home city to do so. CRAZY! I am a city girl, so there's been a little bit of culture shock in dealing with a small town. It's been pretty fun though... :) I miss my fiance too, but he's not that far away... it's just difficult not being with the one you love. ... sigh...

Again, I will let you know when I start putting up the betaed chapters of 'Mine'. We're at chapter 6 right now, so we're not even halfway through what i have written. I'm loving the way that it's going though... it's really getting cleaned up, and plot issues are being addressed, as well as some scenes have been added. :) Yay!!

09/24/08 ahhhh... chapter 13 of 'Mine' is completed, but it is unbetaed by my wonderful beta, as we have started from the beginning, and are currently at chapter 6 of betaing. I really wanted to wait until the whole thing was betaed before putting up the next chapter, but I'm starting to feel BBBAAADDDDD...

So I will try to get chapter 13 up this weekend.:)

RECOMMENDATIONS:

(Updated 09/29/09)

I'm starting to get requests from reviewers about what I would recommend reading (especially DGB and DG), as there are SO MANY FICS on fanfiction.net... I've outlined them below, along with reasons why:

Unexpected by dracademented -- as far as I'm concerned, this is the bible for anyone who loves DxGxB HP fics. It's hot, and it also has one of the most intricate plotlines I have ever seen. Seriously, I am a history major in uni (yes, I know, 'what the hell are you going to do with that Fin?'), and even I had trouble picking out all of the references. It's not fluff, you're in for a thinker. Has a sequel, but I just didn't like it as much. COMPLETE

Dragon Tears by JazzyGeorgie -- this is a straight DMGW, and it is written incredibly well. It follows Ginny through her 6th and 7th years, and it follows a realistic, and logical relationship between the two, along with Ginny growing up and so on. I don't like next generation stuff too much, but there is a sequel too. COMPLETE

Flight of the Thestrals by GD-7 -- again, it is a DMGW, but there is also a lot of Blaise/Ron/Pansy, and it is HOT. I love this fic, it's interesting, and somewhat irreverant, and LONG. LOVE IT. IN PROGRESS, but hasn't been updated in a long time.

The Charm by SlytherinsWench -- DMGW, and FUNNY in places. Very amusing... sex toy goes bonkers in potions, and yeah. Characterization is great, story is great, very creative. Look it up and read it, you won't be disappointed. COMPLETE.

The Dragon Rebels by Lee Velviet -- DMGW, and has some of the best characterizations I have ever seen. Draco is HOT in this, love it. All about Draco rebelling against his father. COMPLETE

Ginnugagap by Aimsaru -- DMGW, Ginny and Draco, after a somewhat rough history, are partnered together as Aurors. Awesome characters, great realism, and an interesting plot. This story pretty much has it all. Read it, enjoy. IN PROGRESS.

The Weasel and the Kneazle by Davesmom -- DMGW, from what I understand, this is a CLASSIC fanfic. Though not finished, it is so incredible. The plot is... well, I can see why people love it so much. Hopefully Davesmom finishes it at some point. READ IT! IN PROGRESS.

DGB Untitled by tkmoore -- DracoGinnyBlaise, smut at it's finest. If you've read any of my other recommended reads, you'll know I'm not much for one-shots, or short fics, but this is what every DGB author aspires to... well, at least I do. It's rated M for a reason, and it is incredibly hot. COMPLETE (ONE-SHOT)

STATUS:

Mine -- Chapter 13 UP NOW.

Catch You -- Chapter 9 (1/2) UP NOW.

Beyond Looking -- Chapter 3 UP NOW.

Live -- on hiatus. I'm so upset about Veronica Mars being cancelled. I'm going to wait for the 3rd season to come out on DVD, and then I might start writing again... GOD! What they did to Weevil's character... ggrrrr... anyway, check back in a few months.

Fear Me -- on indefinite hiatus. I think I might re-write some of it, because the plot veered off where I wanted it to go.

(LJS stuff was written when I was in the middle of High School hell, and it is full of angst, and very self-indulgent writing because of that. I won't be continuing any of that stuff at any point in the near future, if ever, so don't ask about it.)
