"Biting my truant pen, beating myself for spite, 'Fool!' said my Muse to me, 'look in thy heart and write.'"
~ Sir Phillip Sidney, "Astrophel and Stella"

Hey, hey! Guess who's back? For those of you who don't know me, I'm an 19 year old English major with a passion for movies, music, the St. Louis Cardinals, and most of all, writing. College takes up most of my time, so I don't get to write too often, and updates can be few and far between. When I do write, though, I write for whatever fandom in which the obsessive part of my brain has taken up residence at the moment.

For those of you who do know me, sorry about the extended absence. School is a bitch, and I know that's always my excuse, but my schedule just doesn't leave me a whole heap of free time. Good news! I'm writing again, because my muse is bludgeoning me to the point of near fatality. Expect some new FB stories during Christmas break, at the latest. Maybe a one shot before then, huh? We'll see ;)

Stories

Ghosts: My only venture into the LotR fandom so far, and it's very old. Faramir is definitely a favorite of mine, though, and there are definitely too few stories about him. COMPLETE.

Boston: Again, it's old, and I'm not too fond of it at all. Probably my most OOC piece to date. Boondock Saints brothery-lovey angst. Meh. COMPLETE.

In Dreams: A better attempt at a Boondock fic. Very short but full of Connor and Murphy brotherly angsty goodness. Woot. COMPLETE.

Heat: My first Star Wars fic. I'm a huge fan of Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan father/son bonding type stories...so of course, I write an Obi-Wan and Anakin brotherly type story. Without the bonding. And without much brotherly-ness. (shrugs) One of my favorites. COMPLETE.

Contact: Another favorite of mine. Rent Roger/Mark friendship with some spying!Collins thrown in for kicks. COMPLETE.

Inevitable: Slash. The only time I've ever written slash and probably the only time I ever will. Enough syrupy sappiness in this one to drown a mountain of pancakes. Ick. Not author recommended. At all. I actually hate it more and more every time I re-read it. COMPELTE.

Seasons: I liked the concept, but it's on hold indefinitely. My apologies, I just don't have enough inspiration to finish this one yet. Maybe later...at least there's no cliff hangers. ON HOLD.

Shake Me, Wake Me: AU Four Brothers. It's finished, yay! And I must say, I'm quite proud of it :) COMPLETE.

Fighting Fire With Fire: First in the "between the lines" one-shot series. Includes young!Jerry and teenage!Bobby. Cute! COMPLETE.

Flash: What possessed me to write a Saw fic? I'm not sure. Maybe the fact that I just wanted to give Adam a big hug, and writing this was the closest thing to that? I really like the word voyeur, by the way, in case you didn't notice. If you like Saw, check it out, let me know what you think. COMPLETE.

Symmetry: So, years later, I decided to write a companion piece to Heat. It can definitely be read on its own, although I think you can only get the full effect of my interpretation by reading them both. I like it, hopefully you do, too. Someday I will write that Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan father/son bonding story. Damn it, I will. COMPLETE.

Five Things That Never Happened To Adam Faulkner: Boy, this was a good idea when I started it. Then I got sidetracked, and I'm stuck with one thing that never happened to Adam Faulkner, and I've forgotten completely what the other four were things going to be. When I think of them, I'll let you know. ON HOLD.

The Hidden Qualities of Cheap Leather: This one's been a long time coming. I've had the first couple of pages written for a few months, and I just couldn't figure out where I wanted to go with it. I recently had a spark of creativity, and have picked it back up again. The wait shouldn't be too much longer, I hope. NOT POSTED.

When It's Over: A sequel to my AU, Shake Me, Wake Me, if anyone's interested. I'm just outlining and going through concepts right now, reorganizing facts and drawing up plot lines. This one definitely won't be out until Christmas break, if not later, but it's absolutely going to happen. NOT POSTED.
