"There's little in taking or giving
There's little in water or wine
This living, this living, this living
Was never a project of mine.
Oh, hard is the struggle, and sparse is
The gain of the one at the top
For art is a form of catharsis
And love is a permanent flop
And work is the province of cattle
And rest's for a clam in a shell
So I'm thinking of throwing the battle--
Would you kindly direct me to hell?"
-Dorothy Parker
I like strange 'ships that are difficult to write-- glutton for hard work, I guess...I'd love to hear from any and all of you. I try to repsond to all reviews! I'm open to requests.
Barely any information about me-- I am 17 and female, and I am constantly writing something. Poetry, short stories, and novels are my specialty. I adore music and I read all the time. I've been called an intellectual. I like sarcasm, you'll soon find. If you want to know more about me, ask, and perhaps I'll share. (I've been working on my original writing a lot lately, which would be why I haven't been seen here much lately.)
People seem to like my Ginny/Draco fic best ("A Challenge"), so thank you to all the readers out there!
I haven't been writing many fanfics lately, I've been working on my own short stories and on editing my novel, but, as of 2/6, I have submitted a new story. It's taking a long time in queue, but I promise it's there. Hope it gets accepted soon, even if it doesn't earn be a lot of fans... (It's a weird story, but then, so is "Taints and Stains," even if that does seem seriously unpopular [the last chapter has been up for months and it's had 56 reads...]. Well, we'll see once it's up!)
Taints and Stains by musiclily88
Rated: Professors [Reviews - 16]
Summary: Just because Pansy is named after a flower and wears pink does not mean she is a simpering twit. She was, after all, sorted into Slytherin. She’s always been stronger than she looks. Draco may be spoiled and rich, but he’s also volatile and cruel. He may hide behind his image, but he has his image for a reason. This is story of revenge.
Third and last chapter in queue.
Shirty by musiclily88
Rated: [Reviews - 16]
Summary: Hermione and Ron finally reach the point that everyone knew was coming. Begins in a shop and culminates in a birthday party. (Just a semi-fluffy one-shot where frustration breaks apart the awkwardness that surrounds Ron and Hermione. Rated pg-13 just in case.)
Tainted and Cleaning by musiclily88
Rated: [Reviews - 21]
Summary: A somewhat fluffy sort-of-songfic set for Ginny and Harry
(Rated pg-13 just in case-- it's not bad or anything)
