SwissMiss1hide bio
 Author has written 41 stories for Ballykissangel, and Harry Potter. As long as this site is still up... I'm a fandom oldie, starting back in the 90s with Ballykissangel (see my BallyK fan fic archive here) before moving on to Harry Potter in the early 2000s. I was part of FictionAlley staff until getting into Sherlock around 2010, at which point I started using AO3 instead of this site. See my AO3 profile with all my Sherlock Holmes fics (ACD and BBC). IRL I live in Switzerland, where I teach English at a secondary school. I am married, with two adult children. I hope you have fun reading some of my stuff, since I had fun writing it! |
