I love television, reading the same book over and over again, clementines, writing (clearly!), Penguins, diet doctor pepper, sleeping in late, all things chocolate, my pink teddy bear, and the snack that smiles back.
I hate Tuesdays, reality TV, those who text in the company of others, the self-righteous, bad drivers, The Clinton family, the movie The Notebook, Severus Snape (I'll admit it!), and all naturally green food except cucumbers.
I'm emotionally dependent (and considering the state of my sanity should I ever lose them, mentally dependent, too) on my siblings. I've recently discovered Percy Jackson and The Olympians, and I've read Pride and Prejudice way too many times, but Harry Potter will always be my favourite!
I'm a canon girl to the letter. I support Harry/Ginny, Ron/Hermione, Lily/James, Remus/Tonks, and Draco/a bottomless pit of loneliness.

***Someone To Watch Over Me, my baby, has won the Best Chaptered Canon Romance in the 2009 QSQ awards, and I'm so ecstatic about it! Thank you very much to all those who nominated it (and my other stories!) for an award :)***
***When Darkness Did Surround Us won Runner-up for Best Post-Hogwarts story in the 2007 QSQ awards and and Uncle Fred Calls Him Dickwon the very same honor in the 2008 QSQ awards! Thank you to all those who nominated it and my other stories -- readers make the time and effort of writing more than worth it!***

As of November 13: I know its been forever, and I'm very sorry -- I know how annoying it is when updates are far and few between! My life has been insanely busy lately, but I FINALLY have submitted the next chapter of I'll Pick You Up to the queue. Knowing my luck, I will have been too rushed in the editing and it won't get validated right away, but cross your fingers that such is not the case!
I'll Pick You Up: Chapter Seven: Don't Look Down
----> Who screamed? and why? Wouldn't you like to know? You'll find out soon. Well, you'll find out the first one, anyway.
*One-shot*: What Better Way
----> The fluffiest of all fluffy one-shot fluffs. I thought of it while lying in bed trying to fall asleep after drinking too much chocolate milk and spent the next afternoon (thankfully a Saturday) writing it. It has some fluff, a little more fluff, and just to be thorough, an extra dose of fluff. Harry/Ginny.

Summary: “Guilt brings people together. It’s a takes one to know one type thing.”
James Potter has always been a spoiled, arrogant, lazy show-off. When he enters his final year at Hogwarts School, he’s Head Boy . . . and he’s still a spoiled, arrogant, lazy, show-off. But because of that terrible summer, he’s also guilt-ridden.
Lily Evans has always been a self-righteous, impatient, temperamental know-it-all. When she begins her last year at Hogwarts, she’s Head Girl . . . and still a self-righteous, impatient, temperamental know-it-all. But the first night back — and the murder that takes the entire school by surprise — leave her guilt-ridden as well.
With the darkness that’s surrounding the Wizarding world slowly seeping, at long last, onto the grounds of Hogwarts and into the lives of James Potter and Lily Evans, what comes next?
Summary: I hadn't seen him since I was eleven, but he had a rather distinct look about him. It was hard, after all, to forget that black hair that stuck up in the back and the bright green eyes behind those glasses. And the scar — I had always thought it neat to have a scar shaped like a lightening bolt.
Jane Martin sees the odd, quiet boy she went to primary school with years ago in a jewellery shop and she's shocked to see how much things have changed for the boy with taped glasses and baggy clothes. *one-shot*

Years after the great Harry Potter defeated Voldemort, Death Eaters have risen to power and taken over Hogsmeade, Hogwarts, and even the Ministry of Magic.

*Quote from The Epilogue*
Suddenly Harry was kissing her as if he couldn’t resist the temptation. There was a kind of frenzy to the kiss at first, a kind of desperate need, but it melted into something soft and sweet and gentle, a promise of a future when kisses would never be limited. When they broke apart he rested his forehead on hers, sprinkling a few affectionate butterfly kisses across her face. “I love you,” he murmured.
Summary: Despite their best efforts, the word "wait" is always in the vocabulary of Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley. Kicking off after the final battle is done and Voldemort is gone, this is how Harry and Ginny sent "wait" to the wayside. *one-shot*
