Well hi! My name's Becca, I'm a Gryffindor, and I reside on the forums as twilightHPgirl18. I live in New York, I love the 1940s-'70s almost as much as I love Ashton Kutcher, and I'm actually working on an OF that takes place in 1966, and another in 1976 based on my dad's teenage life :)
My favorite bands are, in no particular order: The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Kinks, Bruce Springsteen, The Doors, and Pink Floyd.
I love the TV shows The Big Bang Theory, Gilmore Girls, Happy Days, Glee, Saturday Night Live (I love Jimmy Fallon and Will Ferrell), and Survivor.
My favorite movie at the moment is Pirate Radio (which I love oh so much), but I'm also very fond of Tommy Boy, Across the Universe, 21, The Breakfast Club, The Blues Brothers, and Grease.
My dream is to live in New York City, London, or New Haven, Connecticut. I'm just that cool ;)

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.

Date: 05/09/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Don't Try This At Home
I just have a question: How exactly did you figure out the poptart thing? And 2000000000/ 10! {Becca}
P.S. I just noticed that I typed a '2' instead of a '1' in the rating. I'm too lazy to go fix that, so it's a higher rating.
Author's Response: I learned about the \"Poptart thing\" from a column by the truly, truly wonderful humour writer, Dave Barry. (He is definitely one of the writers who shaped my style.) I wasn\'t sure whether to believe him, so I tested it to see if it worked, and it certainly did. (Though it was a little less dramatic than what Dave Barry had described.) A guy on my bus has his whole arm bandaged up today due to a \"Toaster Accident.\" I didn\'t ask him to elaborate, but it sounds interesting. Apparently, he and another friend had a \"Toaster War.\"

Yo, I see whatcha mean, my brother. This new layout in the cell is totally P-I-M-P-I-N.’ It is TIIIGHT, with a capital ‘T.’ But the whole thing about Voldemort being defeated? That is WHACK, man. He’s so trippin’! Literally!

Amanda by Purplemage
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Amanda wasn’t much different from the other girls at Hogwarts. Except for the fact that she decided to end her life. She also considered Remus Lupin to be her only friend. That’s why when the school is going to hold a service in her memory Remus is the one chosen to write a eulogy. The problem is that Remus barely knew her and doesn’t know what to write. That’s when Sirius decides to help him.
Date: 06/24/08 Title: Chapter 1: Amanda
Was the italicized voice at the end the ghost of Amanda talking to him? That would have been great! And this also wasn't much of a slash story. well, kinda, but it wasnt really the main theme to it. This was really good. I try to stay away from suicide stories due to, well, having 2 of my friends almost try it, but I think that this helped me realize that they would have always been there for me if they did kill themselves. Luckily, me and some expertly timed talks saved them from it. Great story!
Author's Response: I'm really sorry to hear about your friends. Suicide is a terrible thing, but it is a subject that fascinates me. You are right the slash is secondary, I wanted to concentrate on other things. Thanks for the review!
I Don't Do Snogging by Connor Landon

Author's Response: Thank you so much for reading, and it makes me happy that you enjoyed my story!
Draco's Trick-or-Treat by Schmerg_The_Impaler
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Three-year-old Draco goes trick-or-treating for the first time. His mother takes the opportunity to teach him some lessons and Malfoy family values that she believes will be important to her son later in life. This depiction of Draco is VASTLY different from the version of him that I write in "The Dark Lord's Blog."
Ridiculously short one-shot.
Date: 05/09/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter One and Only!
Ack! Poor random fary princess girl! Although, I did like the story... 100000000000000000000000000000000000/10. {Becca}
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I wrote this story so long ago, but I still kind of like it...

Up To Speed by Amelia Bedelia
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Lily and James used to be best friends, hanging out in their neighborhood with each other. But once they were accepted into Hogwarts, they went their separate ways - James, the popular prankster, and Lily, the know-it-all bystander. But will their past be able to bring them back together?
Date: 05/05/08 Title: Chapter 1: Up To Speed
OMG this was the most hilarious James Lily story I have ever read. Sirius rocked i dont think i've ever seen him this funny in a J/L story normally he's pretty serious (please excuse that. The pun was not intended) about getting them together i loved this and its going on my favorites list 100000000000/10 [becca]
To Be Or Nott To Be by Schmerg_The_Impaler
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Theodore Nott has never had much respect for anyone but himself. But after being summoned by Lord Voldemort to join the Death Eaters, his world turns upside down, and he finds himself questioning everything, including his own values and beliefs. Darkish, but with surprisingly light and fluffy bits, kind of like my Dad's pancakes or a truly hideous dress that my Mum once bought for me.
Written by Schmerg_The_Impaler from Hufflepuff House for the Gauntlet's 3rd run. Whoot!
Date: 05/09/08 Title: Chapter 1: The Adventures of a Self-Centred Cynic
(Why should I be afraid to say his name just because he’s horrible? I’m not afraid to say Adolph Hitler or Jack the Ripper or Aaron Carter)
^^Nice! I loved the Aaron Carter joke. I also enjoy making fun of him, which I do weekly.
“Theodore Nott has come to us tonight to replace his father, Erasmus—a loyal, if unexceptional, servant.”
^^again with Erasmus. the name already seems common in your fics.
pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconeiosis
^^Is this a real word?
November’s bedspread depicts the Beatles’ Abbey Road album cover
^^That sounds fun!
I loved the ending sentances. They were awesomeatasticalicious! (which, to set the record, is a word that me and my friend made up.) 100000/10 {Becca}
Author's Response: Fortunately, I think Aaron Carter dropped off the radar... I haven\'t heard of him for years now! Oh my... I DID reuse the name Erasmus, didn\'t I? Funny, I didn\'t remember doing that at all. I wrote this long before Love a Duck, and I named the Erasmus in that after a Dutch church reformer who I was learning about in history while I was writing the story. I\'m glad you liked this one, \'cos I rarely get reviews for it. Oh, and as for the long word-- it\'s a disease that coal miners get, but I might not have spelled it totally right.
Promises, Principles, and Socks by Gmariam
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: James Potter has resolved to get over Lily Evans and move on with life during his seventh year at Hogwarts. An incident after Potions changes all that when their verbal spat in the corridor turns into something more. As Lily struggles with her principles, James tries to win her over once and for all.
Date: 06/09/08 Title: Chapter 1: One-Shot
Gina!!! This was bloody brilliant! I can;t believe it! Well, atually, I can believe it, but it's great! I loved the 'Potter and Evans, working as one' part. That was so, I dunno, James-ish. I like the ending because it's not like a lot of stories where James just stops his pranks all together. In this one, when James and Lily agree to plot against Sirius, Peter, and Remus, it was just nice for a change of pace. I also am inclined to agree that, if it weren't for JK's vagueness on the James/Lily romance, it wouldn't be as fun to write. This was awesome! {BeccA}
Author's Response: Wow, thanks for the great review! I\'m so glad you enjoyed the story so much - it can be tough to write a J/L piece that is original, so I hope I succeeded with this one. It was tons of fun, I love writing them. Thanks for reading it and leaving such a wonderful review!! ~Gina :)
Lycanthropy by Zoheb
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: This 'poem' (For want of a better word) is not so much about 'Harry Potter' as it is about werewolves. But since werewolves are a major part of 'Harry Potter', I suppose that this might have a place here.
This is inspired by Cradle of Filth's 'Her Ghost in the Fog' and Opeth's 'The Baying of the Hounds'. Enjoy, all you sociopaths out there.
Date: 04/17/08 Title: Chapter 1:
OK, wow. Strangely enough, this didnt creep me out, like many stories about lycanthropy do...
And Luna's poison clouds their minds;
^^By Luna, do you mean the character in HP, or the moon?
1000/10 {Becca}
P.S. I love your author page. It's... it's... wondefully chaotic.
P.P.S. I heard about you from Schmerg The Impaler, and now I know why she reccomends you. You're great!
P.P.P.S. Niflheim is my new favorite word! It used to be stuff like 'Hoopla' and 'Jeremiah' or 'Wombo' but now it's 'Niflheim'!!!
Author's Response: This review makes me happy. I think I\'m going to fly.\r\n\r\nIt\'s the moon, by the way.
Haunted by bittersweet_lullaby
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: The year is 1997. A world stands divided. In this case, sisters stand divided. Bellatrix follows the Dark Lord; Andromeda doesn't. But when one kills the other, will it drive the murderer to madness?
Written by bittersweet_lullaby of Slytherin for the Winter Tales Challenge, Prompt #4 (option 1).
Date: 04/15/08 Title: Chapter 1: Haunted
Hello! I read this a while ago, forgot to review, and lost track of where it was. Coincedentally, I was scrolling through MuggleNet and found it again. 100000/10 And a few questions:
Did Voldy see Bella kill herself, or was he somewhere else?
Did Bella see Andromeda, because no one else could, or was it just a dream or something caused by guilt, and Dromeda wasnt there to begin with and Bella was just seeing things.
Well, great job. {Becca}
Lord Voldemort... and Bob? by Schmerg_The_Impaler
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: For Lord Voldemort, life is going swell, and everything is juuust peachy... until a ghostly visitor arrives. EXTRAORDINARILY silly.
EDIT: For some bizarre reason that I can't fully comprehend, this story WON the "Things that Go Bump In The Night" challenge in the Winter's Tale Challenge.
Date: 05/09/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter One and Only!
Bob rocked and I loved her full name.I love long names like that, but more importantly, I loved this story! It was amazizing! (I love making up words like that!) and 100000000000000000000000/10. {Becca}
Author's Response: Awww, thank you! This is one of my more... pointless stories, but I\'m glad you liked it anyway. It was fun to write. I\'m sure that if I was dead, I\'d do exactly the same thing to Voldershmookins.
Trouble in Paradise by HarrynHermione_06
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Every legendary romance has a couple of rough patches here and there. Well, here's one that could just ruin a relationship forever.
Date: 05/17/08 Title: Chapter 1: Trouble in Paridise
Uh oh. Poor Lily. Did Sirius know about it, or was he making it up without knowing it was true? Hey! Maybe now Lily can get together with Sirius! I'm delusional, and an avid Lily/Sirius shipper after reading your story, Just Another Love Story, I think? But hey, great job with both of them! {Becca}
Voldy's Deathpants by Deathpants, Mind_Over_Matter, wendelin the wierd, cmwinters, Schmerg_The_Impaler
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: The Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters are locked in battle over a highly important magical artifact known to most as Voldy's Deathpants, in bold letters like that. However, they go about battle in a, er, highly unusual way-- a Quidditch match!
Probably the silliest thing that's ever appeared on this site, featuring highly OOC behaviour.
Deathpants is a team of writers consisting of Mind_Over_Matter, cmwinters, wendelin the wierd, and Schmerg_The_Impaler. Our story was written in Round Robin format. This (and our deranged minds) explains its randomness. Enjoy!
The insanity of the Deathpants has gotten to the mods! This ridiculous story WON the 2008 Quicksilver Quill Award for Best Humour Story!
Date: 05/21/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 and Only
OMG HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!!!!!!!! That was soooo hilarious!!! Great job, guys! I hope you can post more co-written stories!!!! I loved the freaky-Mexican-hairless-chihuahua-werethingos of Remus and Fenrir! And the hair curlers on the field! The entire reason/plot of the story was amazizing! (my new word)!!!!! Great job!!!!1 (BeccA}
Author's Response: Thank you so much, Becca! The hair curlers on the field were Mind_Over_Matter\'s idea, but I came up with the freaky Mexican hairless chihuahua werethingos, as you so brilliantly called them. Amazizing is a word that needs to be used more often. -- Schmerg_The_Impaler.
Shhh... it's a library! by Lily of the US
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: We all know that Hermione and Krum met in the library... but what really happened between these two?
Date: 05/16/08 Title: Chapter 1: Shh... it's a library!
This was pretty nice. I liked it. Great job and 10000/10. The reasons I liked it was that it's not too fluffy (which gets in the way of a plot) and that Hermione and Krum were perfectly in character! The title was really neat, and it caught my eye. Great job! {Becca}
How Ironic, Mr. Malfoy by Schmerg_The_Impaler
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Lucius Malfoy is most infamous for being excessively proud of his ancestry and for his disdain for Muggle-borns. But what if he received a letter that changed everything? Takes place during OotP, and it's AU.
Contains snippets of humour.
For the "Dreams" challenge in the fanfiction beta boards... I am Schmerg_The_Impaler of Hufflepuff House.
Date: 05/09/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1: In Which Owls Become Lucius's Hair Accessories
Ahh. Nice one. I loved Lucius's surprise and found it perfectly in character. Great job (as usual) and 1000000000000000/10 {Becca}
Author's Response: Ooh, thanks! I almost forgot I\'d written this story...
Date: 05/09/08 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2: In Which Our Hero Is Terrorized By A Doorbell
“Shut up, honey,” Narcissa muttered sleepily and rolled over, hogging the sheets.
^^I can see her saying that. It's very Narcissa-ish.
“Welcome,” he said, “to the Order of the Phoenix, Mr. Malfoy.”
^^DO you think that could have actually happened @ the end of DH? I do now.
*sigh* My new goal is to read & review everyone of your stories, and I would be doing that right now, but my mom is bugging me about doing a book report that I have put off for a month and is now due in 7 short days. I had to pick the longest book my teacher had. 10000000000/10 {Becca}
Author's Response: WOW, you really are leaving me a lot of reviews! And I really appreciate that a lot. As for Mr. Malfoy joining the Order of the Phoenix, I don\'t think he really would join the Order, he\'s too interested in saving his own skin-- I think only finding a personal connection to his victims would really make him do that. But I wish he would, because he\'s coool... This story takes place durig the book OotP, so basically he never goes to the Department of Mysteries and Sirius never dies, etc.
Dirty Magic by Wings of the Morning
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: He's got a horrible, deep, sinking feeling that he's just like the rest of his family. They're all a bit insane, and he feels insane right about now, absolutely bloody wild, like he's let some caged beast out, and it scares him.
(Sirius picked a bad night to run away from home. Rating for heavy cursing and situation. Oneshot.)
Date: 05/28/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
Oooooh wow. I never pictured Sirius as this angsty, but it was great. Makes me even sadder than I am already for Sirius, but it was a great story all in all. Great job! {Becca}
Lily by Eowyn89
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Read the note that launched a thousand ships.....or maybe just the romance between Lily and James...
Date: 05/27/08 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
OMG. That was awesome!!!!!!!!! I loved it, and you should definitely write more poetry. Are you only studying French and history? Because you could make a great author. That's pretty much why when I get to collage I'm taking a journalism major. Anyway, 100000000000000/10. {BeccA}
Author's Response: Thank you for your review! Yes, I am only studying that, mainly because that is all I have time for! Writing is simply a hobby I hope to keep improving, and I\'m really glad you enjoyed it :)
