Author has written 12 stories for Holes, Outsiders, Harry Potter, and Final Fantasy X-overs.

About Devon's Writing:
She started writing in 3rd grade with a series about a boy named Jimmy Black. One of these books was published by the school and voted into the library. Her mother was very proud. (The illustrations did nothing for the story, though. They made it seem more like an acid trip than a children's book.) She started writing for FF.net when she was 12. She's still not getting paid for it, much to her cousin's dismay. ("What? You write for FREE!? For five years?") She's incredibly embarrassed by 99 percent of everything she's uploaded onto this website (which makes her either incredibly brave or terribly masochistic.) If you're reading her Holes fan fiction...she's so, so sorry. But, she's written so long about her OC from the Outsiders universe that she considers her a character S.E. Hinton forgot to write in. She also writes for Harry Potter but mostly sends that to her bestie or posts it to her writing LiveJournal. She also writes for FP.com but considers everything posted there mediocre at best. Most recently she wrote her first novel for NaNoWriMo 2008.

BUSINESS INFORMATION
Stories:
Only Psychoanlaysis is still being written (and 'being written' is a loose term since I have no motivation to do so any longer.) All of the others are finished, although I'll probably tweak them all every now and again if I get the motivation.

Writing Style: I'm a romantic sap who has a love for "over-writing" description wise. I enjoy toying with people's emotions (readers and characters) so consider yourself warned.

Updating Schedule: I update when I have something to update, unless I set a deadline for myself. Maybe I should start making deadlines more as I hardly ever update anything.

Review Policy: If you comment while I'm still writing a story I'll usually reference you in an Author's Note. If you review after the story is finished I make use of FF.net's nifty reply feature. If I don't get back to you then there must be something glitchy going on because I'm VERY good at my FF.net and FP.com correspondence. If you would like to reply to my reply feel free to e-mail me. I check it obsessively after around 4 ever afternoon.

Fictionpress Stories: My username at Fictionpress is "ziggygurl" so go check them out if you want. My stories are pretty angst and fluff and romance all woven together...if that helps. Oh, and I wrote them all when I was about 13 so they're terrible. And no, I'm not being modest.

1. Psychoanalysis reviews
Vincent Valentine's brooding tendencies earn him a first class ticket to a psychiatrist. Oddly enough, Angel's whining lands him in the same position. Who has the most reason to brood? The man who spent 30 years in a coffin or the man who had an excuse to

2. The All Day and Every Day Squid Channel reviews
Zigzag no longer needs to watch the busted up TV in the Wreck Room. The 24/7 Squid Channel in his head is enough entertainment for anyone. Slash. You've been warned. However, nothing in depth. I'm just putting my foot in the water here. One shot!

3. Letters from Camp The Sequel to GGL Girls » reviews
The gang from Camp Green Lake Girls are in for the summer of a lifetime. From divorces, and trips to Hawaii to memories of love and pain. Told completely in letter and diary format. Do yourself a favor and read the prequel if you don't want to be lost.

4. Battle Scars » reviews
She, like most Greasers, feels too violently. Self medication of alcohol is the easiest way to get through. Family & habit are the only ways to love her and most people are able to avoid that. Redone as of '07. OC is present but not normal. Alternate end.

5. The Heartbreaking Silence of Forever » reviews
Aubrey Holloway finds herself back in Oklahoma, and she couldn't be any more upset about it. Her life is changed for the worse as she experiments with heavy drinking and drugs, but she can't seem to get away from pain. Rated for language, drug use.

6. Drabble Anthology reviews
Drabbles about Remus Lupin's life. He has a sister in the story who is not a Mary Sue, there is no romance, she is a writing tool to keep everything especially the final battle in perspective. Constructive criticism appreciated. Beware of SPOILERS.

7. Seeing Red reviews
Started out as a character sketch of Darry, who I've never explored as a character. It sort of changed after the first few paragraphs. So now it takes place the night Soda announces he's dropping out. You can imagine Darry isn't very happy.

8. Alone reviews
A Dallas Winston character sketch. Dallas Winston is so real he scares Ponyboy, and he's so alone that he scares everyone else.

9. Holes Story: Camp Green Lake Girls » reviews
CGL is co-ed. The guys are back under false charges and they have to deal with their new camp mates. I wrote this when I was 12. Edited it when I was 17. Didn't change much because that would be cheating. Lots of Zig, for those who care. Be gentle?
