La Donna Ingenuahide bio
 Author has written 8 stories for Downton Abbey, and Vampire Diaries. I like: beautiful words, champagne, books, books, books, red nail polis, italian, lavender, espresso & Downton Abbey. I believe that Maggie Smith is simply da bomb. And you may tell her I said so. I like to read stories about Matthew & Mary and Sybil & Branson. I also like to read stories that are updated often with quality storytelling. But I won't lie–if the storytelling is good enough, I will wait forever with an update. I hope that this is what you can expect from me. But we shall see... In other news, just got myself a tumblr: ladonnaingenua dot tumblr dot com. I post about the story I am writing so you might be interested. |
