30 year old male reader, aspiring writer. Industrial electrician by trade.

Displaced New England resident living in Hawaii.

Black Metal aficionado. Boston sports fan.

My life has been upended over the past year, including an unexpected move to Hawaii, which served to kill my creative drive. I am inspired by cold days and dark nights, both of which are sadly lacking here. However, I am starting to regain my mojo. Starting on the first of January I will be returning to fan-fiction, starting with 'Elizium' and 'Sitra Ahra'. Here's to hoping things go well and my muse speaks.

Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter, the Dark Tower, or the Kingkiller Chronicle. Shocking. This covers all my stories.

Update 1/15/2016

Though most of you may have already guessed by my lack of activity on this site, I have not been doing any writing. Other creative pursuits have lay claim to my muse. That being said, nothing I have started is abandoned in any way, just on-hold. I will reflect this status on all of my stories. I do not know when I will return to writing, only that one day I shall. My apologies, but right now designing games brings me far more satisfaction than writing.

My Stories:

Sitra Ahra

AU story, HBP compliant, very little DH. Following the events of Halloween, 1981, both Harry Potter and Voldemort disappear. Nine years later, a nearly-catatonic Harry Potter is picked up by a muggle policeman, and eventually placed in a muggle orphanage. The very same one that Tom Riddle, many years ago, took his first steps towards becoming the most evil Dark Lord the world have ever seen. Sitra Ahra chronicles Harry's journey from the muggle orphanage to Hogwarts, while dealing with his mysterious past, and being labeled the next Dark Lord by Wizarding society. Seven-year AU. Rated M for a reason.

Sole Survivor

One-shot. The last known survivor of a plague that has wiped out the muggle population of Britain, a ten-year old Harry Potter, ignorant of both his heritage and the magical world, tries to survive in this new wasteland, all while being pursued by mysterious factions, each with their own agenda.

Sole Survivor: 16,138 words, posted 4/08/11

Ouroboros

Post-OotP, canon compliant. Early into the summer of his sixth year, Harry Potter is kidnapped by Voldemort. The task of torturing Harry falls upon the lap of a more than willing Bellatrix Lestrange, who slowly drives Harry insane with equal parts pain and pleasure, until all that remains is a shell of 'The Boy Who Lived'. After an unlikely escape, Harry finds his thoughts and dreams dominated by his violet-eyed torturer, and longs for her touch, all while plotting his revenge against Voldemort and Dumbledore. Warning: Extreme violence, explicitly described rape and sex scenes, an immense amount of canon character death.

The Gunslinger and the Mage

One-shot (for now, at least). In an abandoned Way Station surrounded by endless desert, Harry Potter awakes, with no memory of his arrival. Alone, sanity fraying, salvation comes from an unexpected source: Roland Deschain, the last gunslinger. A Harry Potter / Dark Tower crossover.

Written for the June DLP crossover competition, where it placed first.

Behind the Curtain of Dusk

His fall was precipitous. From one of the brightest students to ever attend the University to the pariah hiding in a forgotten corner of war-torn Vintas, from Kvothe to Kote; this is how the story ends. Day Three of the Kingkiller Chronicle.

Thank God You're Here

DLP one-shots. I occasionally participate, but not with any great frequency. There's supposed to be a time-limit, but I never stick to it. I've got one that's been in the works for six months now. Maybe someday I'll even finish it.
