Name: Laurielove. Or Demelza Hart. (I lie on both counts.)

Age: Old enough to know better.

Time spent: Life.

What I write: Life, with an emphasis on sex. And a motivation from feeling an adult Hermione deserved more than Ron, and an adult Wendy deserved more than normality. As well as Harry Potter and Peter Pan fics, I've written for other shows and fandoms with my stories focusing on unlikely, illicit relationships.

My new stories are now all going up onto Archive of our Own (AO3) as Laurielove. My fics based on the shows Victoria and The Man in the High Castle feature heavily on AO3 too.

Fan fiction is where it all started and fan fiction keeps me sane. For a while, after winning an erotic writing competition, I wrote original erotica and erotic romance under the name Demelza Hart, published with established publishing houses. You'll still find my stuff out there if you look hard enough. Some of it's even quite good. I've taken a break from that as the lure simply isn't tugging me in at the moment, but who knows what will happen in the future. But I'm still loving fanfic, even though it doesn't help pay for tea like the original stuff did. (It was only ever tea, mind.)

You can find fanfic me on Facebook. Come and like my page, called, unremarkably, Laurielove. My profile name on Facebook is Laurie Hart, although I never post anything directly to my timeline. If you're a fan of Victoria, I'm also admin of two Facebook groups, although I don't tend to hang out there much at the moment: For the Love of Vicbourne - Victoria and Lord M (for Victoria) and the John Smith (The Man in the High Castle) Discussion Group.

I had to get rid of a lot of my links and the ones below for the translations probably don't work, so apologies. FFnet is like that.

Make sure you’re of age if you read my stories. My conscience, battered little thing that it is, can’t cope otherwise. There is a clear warning in all the summaries.

Clearly, 99% of the characters I write for have been created by somebody else. I'm very grateful to be able to borrow them for a moment and let them get up to all sorts of wicked wonderfulness. Thank you to all the authors and actors for the inspiration; it's a lot of cathartic fun, and that is all I will ever profess it to be.

And, even though we're all only into fan fiction for the lols, and even though it's sort of flattering in a way, please don't go copying great chunks of my writing and claiming it as your own. It's not nice; it's cheap, tacky and doesn't do you any favours in the long run.

If you wish to translate any of my stories, you may, but please ask me in a quick PM first (I will invariably agree) and send me the link when you're ready. It's always a great honour to be asked, so please do!

And on that happy note ... enjoy what's here and join me on AO3 for more! :-)

TRANSLATIONS

I'm really touched that many of my stories have been translated into different languages. Thank you so much to the generous and talented people who've done this; it's such an honour to be asked. I'm afraid I've stopped linking to them as ffnet was making it impossible, but enormous thanks to everyone who continues to translate my fics. If you would like to translate, please send me a quick message and then go ahead.

ARTWORK

I'm also very grateful and in awe of the incredible artists who've designed something for my fics. This is always so touching and very very welcome.

PMs and messages are always welcome.

HAPPY READING.
