Reading is my passion. My favorite types of books are fantasy, sci-fi, and romance. I also adore the A&E/BBC six-hour Pride & Prejudice, LOTR, Vin Diesel's voice, Twizzlers, and peppermint flavored anything. Besides writing, I decorate fancy cakes and wrangle my children. I have a M.S. in Zoology and a B.A. in Biology with a Japanese minor. I also have two rambunctious kids. Check out my Indygodusk tumbler with pictures inspired by my stories.

Story Status:

Author Update: (08/17/2018) This is what I'm working on right now: First, two MCU/Sentinel crossovers from another Rough Trade challenge. The first is "Latent Truths" with a female Steve Rogers who lives as a man because that's the Captain America the world wants and needs (or so she's been told). Stevie and Bucky have a romance. Next is the sequel "Not 5 by 5" with Clint/Nat/Phil. It will be shorter than the first and is still being written, hopefully 20-25k. When those are done, I'm going to go back and finish my Harry Potter sequel fic "Dispelling the Lies," which is 80% finished and then update as I edit the chapters. Thanks for reading and please continue to comment so I know you care!

Hakama Dake WON for best Kenshin & Kaoru Romance/WAFF in the RKRC for 2005! Thank you so much and Yay!

The most awesome Quenya translated Hakama Dake into Italian. Wowzers! Go find her if you know Italian.

Passion ...

Passion, it lies in all of us. Sleeping...waiting...and though unwanted, unbidden, it will stir...open its jaws, and howl. It speaks to us...guides us...Passion rules us all. And we obey. What other choice do we have? Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love...the clarity of hatred... and the ecstasy of grief. It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion, maybe we'd know some kind of peace. But we would be hollow, empty rooms, shuttered and dank. Without passion, we'd be truly dead.
