So if you've ever seen the movie In the Land of Women, you probably know me pretty well. The character played by Adam Brody is basically me in male form. Apart from the fact that I don't write soft porn, we're pretty much twins. Or maybe I do..... Might as well read my stories!;)
I find my greatest strength in wanting to be strong. I find my greatest bravery in deciding to be brave.

A Quest For Ice Cream by Schmerg_The_Impaler
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Ever wondered why Florean Fortescue was taken by the Death Eaters?
Lord Voldemort is on the quest to find the best, evilest flavour of ice cream, and he will stop at nothing to get it.
This is a very short, very silly and quite OOC little one-shot written as consolation for the fact that "E-Journal" is on hiatus. It's based on a prompt given to me by the ridiculously talented Inigoenigma.
Nominated for Best Humour fic in the Quicksilver Quills awards!
Uncle Fred Calls Him Dick by MagEd
Rated: 6th-7th Years •
Summary: 2008 QSQ Awards Runner-up for Best Post-Hogwarts
Harry defeated Voldemort. Harry married Ginny. Harry and Ginny had five children. Harry disappeared. My name is Lily Potter, and this is the story of what happened when my father returned after six years missing to find my mother about to re-marry. This is the story of myself, my crazy family, and most of all, this is the story of my parents and the man who tried to come between them. (pre-Deathly Hallows)

A Tale of Two Matchmakers by Kerichi
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Romance for three couples when Blaise and Luna use Shakespearean styled matchmaking to hook up Ginny and Draco. There's Much Ado about...something!
Nominated for a Quicksilver Quill for Best Romance-Non Canon 2007, 2008, and 2009. In 2010 mods changed the rules (they got tired of the same fics being nominated ^_~) so no more QQ hopes, but that's okay. No proof is needed that Draco/Ginny = love.
* Written before the HBP, this tale presents an alternate sixth year in which Dumbledore lives, Draco is more than a foil to Harry, and Blaise Zabini is a girl. I hope readers who ship Draco/Ginny will enjoy the story which includes dancing with faeries, Celtic and Norse mythology, school holidays in London and Spain, and loads of fantasy and romance. "Is this a kissing book?" (to quote the Princess Bride) Yes, it is. *

Keep Your Friends Close, but Your Enemies Closer by Buckbeak22
Rated: Professors •Summary: Ron and Hermione are chosen to look after Draco and help him fit into the Muggle world after his magic has been taken away in retribution for his war crimes. Hermione, however, has been in a coma for five years after her marriage to Ron, and Draco has feelings for Ron. Add Harry to the mix and who ends up with who? Except that you know that already from the category. However, I hope I have enough to keep you reading anyway!
The Dark Lord's Blog by Schmerg_The_Impaler
Rated: 1st-2nd Years • Summary: What does Lord Voldemort do in his spare time? Well, that's an excellent question. Who would have known that the Dark Lord has a blog? (He also has a loyal following of readers, most of whom are Death Eaters and who post their comments.) Voldemort dispenses advice on everything from murder methods to germ protection to Power Rangers to shoes, and gives an account of the life of an evil overlord. But is he posting too much personal information online? And will Harry read it and find out more about the Dark Lord than Voldemort ever intended? Read and see.
WARNING: Extremely OOC behaviour from almost all.
RUNNER-UP in the 2007 Quicksilver Quills Awards for Best Humour fic! Also nominated like 21 times, because apparently my readers are as insane as I am!

The Silver Charm Bracelet by charmed_heart25
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: If your BF/GF fails to turn up at your date, what do you think happened? Most of the time, we think it's "just not meant to be." Maybe there's more to it than it seems. You never know. But don't say it's "just not meant to be."
No Turning Back by aliweasley
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: After the last battle, can the survivors deal with the pain of losing their most beloved friend?
Not fully a romance, but with just enough fluff thrown in it can qualify. It is definetly a bittersweet story with moslty Ron/Hermione but with a teensy bit of Harry/Ginny. Bring a tissue! One-shot. Fully revised, finally! R&R
