Hi and thanks for stopping by!
My story "Soldiers" is now complete! Feel free to contact me if you ever want to know a little more about what happened to Septimus and Cedrella after the story ends.
As for "Meet the Weasleys," I plan to write more. However, it is on hold for now because I don't have as much free time as I would like to spend writing fanfiction, unfortunately. College beckons. :)

Wandless by Wandering Wand
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary:
It’s not just any 1st of September. The Philosopher Stone is hidden at Hogwarts, The Boy Who Lived is about to board the Express for the first time. It’s not the best September for something unexpected to happen, for something impossible. Or someone.
This story is not AU, but it focuses on the original character, her plot, her friends, her loves :)
Rating and Warning only for later chapters.
Date: 12/17/09 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 - The Unexpected Guest
I'm rather hooked on this...
Great story and very suspenseful. I feel so sorry for Cybele! And I like the characterization of Snape...
:)
Author's Response: Thanks! I really appreciate that because characterization of Snape being almost nice is not easy; I'm happy you like it :)

However, with two overachieving friends and a headmaster who does not even know she exists, Keedie feels that perhaps her seventh year will not be too spectacular. However, Dumbeldore sees her potential as a writer and enrols her in a simple writing course. Here, she meets the mysterious and terrifying Tom Riddle and they instantly get under one another's skin. She is drawn to his dark determination towards some unknown goal and he is fascinated by her, in every way. However, Tom's friends do not approve of Keedie and her unconventional ways and Keedie has many people trying to keep her away from the dark young man as well. Something inside tells Keedie that she can make him better, but even he assures her that this is an impossible task. But she's not one to give up easily...

I really really really really really really like this story so far! You make Tom believable, which I know is impossibly hard.
Thanks for the great read!
Author's Response: You're welcome, glad you like :D
Date: 11/19/09 Title: Chapter 28: The Epilogue--My Immortal
WOW. Thats all I can say...
Incredible story, incredible take on old Voldy... I never thought his past explained how he was quite so evil... this makes so much sense and is so heartbreaking.
Thank you for the wonderful story, even if it did make me cry!
Author's Response: Oh, thank you. I'm sorry you cried, but I'm glad you liked it. :D
Once Upon A Time by DaniDM
Rated: Professors •Summary: Pre-HP Hogwarts-mid-1930's. Elizabett Castlewood, a Hufflepuff raised in a circle of Slytherins, has created a new course for Hogwarts-Muggle Studies. Within the first months at school, she captures the attention of a certain Transfiguration professor.
Date: 12/17/09 Title: Chapter 1: 1 - Elizabett
I'm very interested in this story... the Grindelwald stuff absolutely freaks me out because they BOTH have secrets about him and neither of them know it... I feel like bad things are going to happen when they do find out. I'm quite curious to see how Albus decides to go after Gellert in the end, and what really happens at the duel, presuming thats in the story. :)
Great writing, keep it up!
Author's Response: A new voice! Good to hear from you. I think you'll like this story. It puts a different twist on things. At the moment, it's up to 23 chapters here, but 54 have been written, with a few more to end it. Keep in touch, I'd like to hear what you have to say.

Gosh I always knew I disliked Thomas. I'm totally interested to see where this is going... :)
Author's Response: Which chapter were you responding to? Thomas has his moments. He'll be in the story for the long haul.
Keep in touch. I'd love to hear your views.

Date: 03/03/10 Title: Chapter 33: 33 - Friends and Foes
Sorry, I was reading the reviews and decided to submit one so it sent my review to the first chapter instead of this one! That must have been confusing. Wonderful story, nonetheless. :)
Author's Response: Glad you're enjoying it. Keep in touch.

Bludgers and Meteors by lucilla_pauie
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: No candlelit dinner, no getting down on one knee.
This was how it happened instead. During Sunday brunch.
Surrounded by Weasleys and babies, instead of violin notes and posies.With sniping and bellowing, along with the embraces and kissing.
But it was no less perfect.Date: 06/11/09 Title: Chapter 1: Bludgers and Meteors
Cuuute! This is so much better than sappy romantic everything is perfect fics. (though I love those too if I'm in the right mood). Very realistic!!
I'll Pick You Up by MagEd
Rated: 6th-7th Years • 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?
*Completed*
Date: 06/10/10 Title: Chapter 16: You Climbed Up Here to Fall Apart
I just read this whole story so far straight through and it's wonderful! I like the mix of serious angst and fluffy marauder goodness. Great characterization, and I can't wait for the rest!!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm glad you like the characterization and think it a good mix of angst and fluff :) The next chapter should be up soon!
Date: 06/23/10 Title: Chapter 18: I'll Pick You Up
Oh no!!! Wonderful chapter with a chilling end... POOR Lily!
I think that Grace has something to do with the murders... maybe that is horrible of me, and I do feel sorry for her, but she totally could have put the curse on her boyfriend and some of the things she has said to Lily are suspicious... I also think Regulus might be involved somehow. That would make sense. And Lenore definitely knew something, that's why she was killed.
I love this story, the suspense is killing me! Update soon :)
Author's Response: Thanks for the review! And thanks for sharing your theories -- you'll find out soon enough ;) The suspense is really building, I know, but the next chapter will hopefully be posted soon!
What's Done is Done by Kerichi
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary:
Plan A: Convince Father to respect Scorpius' decisions.
Plan B: Risk scrambling Lucius' brain with a Memory Charm.
Date: 07/20/09 Title: Chapter 1: The Sticking Place
this is a cute little companion piece to Our Little Secret, (which is one of my favorite fics on the site).
But why did Lucius agree so easily? He's such a prat most of the time...
Author's Response: I could tell you Lucius is afraid of ending up like another Jason Isaacs character, Hook, "old, alone, done for" :D, but although he truly does value his family and does not want them to move out (or Narcissa to give him hell and hexes about it), the main reason was a very Slytherin one: he who fights and runs away, lives to fight another day.
On Any Day by MagEd
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: "Ron . . . it was never Harry. It was always you. It was ever only you. Just you."
It's been two months since Ron and Hermione shared their first kiss. Now they're facing another first: their first date. *one-shot*
Date: 08/03/09 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
loved it! This is so cute and yet so realistic. Ron/Hermione is a bit hard to get right sometimes but you did really well!
Author's Response: Thanks very much! I'm glad you think so :)
Hermione by OliveOil_Med
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Hermione Wilkins is an explorer with an over-active imagination. So when a woman show up on her doorstep claiming she is Hermione too, no one believes her. In fact, she is punished! Of course, the fact that she was climbing on the roof at the time might have had something to do with it...
But when Hermione Weasley appears once again, she shares a secret with Hermione Wilkins; mostly because she needs her help if she is ever going to achieve what she came to Australia for in the first place.
Date: 03/02/10 Title: Chapter 7: Chapter 6 The Last First Day of School
:) I like this chapter a lot, can't wait to see what happens next!
Author's Response: I'm working hard on chapter 7 right now!
Scenes from Shell Cottage by WeasleyMom
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: This fic is a series of missing moments from the time H/R&H were at Shell Cottage, beginning immediately after they Disapparated from Malfoy Manor. JKR shows us what was going on with Harry, but this is my version of what could have happened with Ron and Hermione after one of the most emotional/disturbing events in the entire series.
UPDATED June 2010 When I first wrote this fic, I didn't know what a beta reader was, and frankly, it showed. Thanks so much to Natalie for helping me polish this up and make it more readable. Thanks also to both Julia and Carole, whose helpful comments in the review section allowed me to make some much-needed corrections during the rewrite. I would love to know what you think ~ reviews are very much appreciated!
This was nominated in the 2010 Quicksilver Quill Awards for Best Canon Romance.
Date: 11/16/09 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
I really like this story. like everyone has been saying, its so realistic, which I love, especially for Ron/Hermione, which I think one of the hardest ships to write well and one of the best when it is!
I LOVED the line where Hermione tells Ron that she never fancied Harry because he was always next to Ron. Brilliance!
Bravo, and can't wait for more!
Author's Response: Thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed it, and that you liked that line too. I appreciate you taking the time to leave a review, too!

Jemzi by Belledeg
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Jemzi Zabini is the seventeen year old daughter of Blaise Zabini and his wife Harper, and is about to join her fellow witches and wizards at Hogwarts for their final school year. Jemzi is famous for being the once best friend of Albus Potter. However, a mysterious argument last year that only the two of them were witness to has ruined their friendship and they are now practically enemies. No one knows the reason for their fall out, only that it has caused a great divide in their friendship group.
Jemzi's best friend and Albus' cousin, Rose, suspects that their friendship expired because of strange and unwanted feelings between them. Feelings which, despite their fall out, have not gone away. Feelings that are similar to those she has for a certain Slytherin...
So can the next generation of Hogwarts students learn to forget past actions and forgive?

Playing It Straight by DeadManSeven
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Cho's last year was going to be different. She was going to focus on school. She was going to play Quidditch. She was not going to get involved with rebellions, or boys. She was not going to be distracted by anything.
And then came Katie Bell.
Date: 02/03/11 Title: Chapter 1: Playing It Straight, Part I
Hi, I'd just like to let you know how much I enjoyed this! I loved the natural way the relationship developed, the realness of the characters, and the way the dialogue and little details showed what was happening much better than plain old exposition. Very well written and well imagined, and I liked too that there wasn't this huge focus on "so are they both lesbians now, or what?" It was just a story about how two people fell in love. Thank you for the read!
Author's Response: Well, thankyou! That was exactly my goal with this story - write something that feels like a real relattionship developing naturally. It's not a very complicated story, but it did let me do a lot of things I like, like write long exchanges of dialogue or put a slightly slantwise twist on a well-explored subject. Same-sex pairing stories aren't exactly uncommon in fanfiction, but finding ones that don't really make a big deal of the characters being homosexual... There's maybe a couple of lines that bring it up, but on the whole it's a subtextual thing: I wanted to focus on Cho and Katie themselves. Playing the romance genre straight, as it were.
Mistletoe Kisses by Northumbrian
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary:
Five years separate two kisses and two girls, a redhead, and a blonde. A lot can change in five years.I am Northumbrian from Ravenclaw House, and this is my entry for the February Love challenge in the Great Hall - category First Love - at the MNFF beta boards.
Date: 02/25/10 Title: Chapter 1: Mistletoe Kisses
Awwww. That is so cute. Good job at getting inside Neville's head! This does seem quite like him. :)
Author's Response: In my opinion, Neville is a hero in so many ways. -N-
But I Could Never Climb Alone by MagEd
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: He knows he shouldn't say it, but there's still a part of him that remembers being fifteen, that remembers thinking it impossible to get Lily Evans to give him a chance, and it's never really been put to rest. "Don't stop loving me," he whispers. "Please, Lily. Don't ever."
He thought the war couldn't become any more unbearable. But, somehow, it does. It probably has something to do with his wife driving off in the middle of the night. (Companion to "You Told Me Once, Dear.")
Date: 03/07/10 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
I love this story (and it's companion) and I think they are both realistic and fascinating. The ending is happy but also somehow sad to me.. and beautiful. I love how you managed to keep Snape in character and yet have him replace Lily in canon... Wonderful job!!
Author's Response: Thanks! The ending is a bit bittersweet :) I'm glad you enjoyed both stories and thought Snape in canon!

Date: 04/26/10 Title: Chapter 17: A Tightly-Wound Plan
