Aphaea21hide bio
Author has written 2 stories for Phantom of the Opera. I am very new to the world of fanfic, but I am hoping to try putting up a few of my own short stories soon. My interests are many and far ranging but my main loves are Phantom of the Opera, classic fiction (Austen, Gaskell etc etc), Dr Who (NuWho 9-10 mainly) Harry Potter (Severus Snape) Greek and Norse mythology in general... I do adore a tall, dark and brooding hero/antihero! All the wonderful, quirky, outsider types fire me up. I have for a long time found myself penning short vignettes and alternative endings for stories and plots that irritated me or that I found unsatisfying. So, LND, anyone? :) (I have a LOT of plot fixes / alternatives for that one... grrr) My mission is to try to turn the snippets I have written over the years into viable stories :) x June 2020 |
