Okay, where to begin? Well, I am a dedicated, female Slytherin High School student from California, but living in New York at the present time....I want to be a writer when I get older and HP fanfiction really helps me out with practice.
I mostly enjoy writing my own stories, reading, chilling with mi best amigas and watching all sorts of movies, whether they are old black-and-whites or the present day thrillers and such. Music and television play a large part in my everyday doings; I can't complete or concentrate on homework without the background help of either.
I absolutely adore reading the HP series and hope to provide my readers with stories to grab their attention and keep them hooked for as long as humanly possible. No matter, the quantity of readers and reviews that seem interested, I'll be happy to know that there's a chance of catching the attention of one, whether the responses happen to be constructive critism, uplifting reviews, or even (if this site permits) flames.
My parents both loathe Harry Potter, but it's so much fun to annoy them with talking about it all the time. It is absolutely ridiculous that some schools and people think JK Rowling is trying to educate us in Dark Magic; everyone who thinks of her and the series as such all need their head checked if you ask me. Power to Jo!
I am a major fan of anime and manga, and hope to learn Japanese as I get older.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy what I produce. Here are a few boring statistics (if anyone even reads these bios):
TV Shows: The Parkers, Heroes, Naruto, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, The Wayans Brothers, CSI: Miami, Keeping up Appearances (I swear that show is the funniest British sitcom I have ever seen), As Time Goes By, General Hospital and the list goes on...
Movies: Pirates of the Carribbean, Schindler's List, Harry Potter, Titantic, AI: Artifical Intelligence, Spirited Away, Erin Brockovich, any film by Hayao Miyazaki, Tokyo Godfathers...
Artists: Evanescence, Maroon 5, , Eminem, 30 Seconds to Mars, My Chemical Romance, w-inds, Linkin Park, Seether, Jojo, Christina Aguilera, The Beatles....
Authors: J.R.Ward, JK Rowling, Chris Crutcher, Chris Wooding, Darren Shan, Lois Duncan....
Books: Catcher in the Rye, the Black Dagger Brotherhood Series, The Haunting of Alaizabel Cray, Dreamland, the Cirque du Freak Series....
There are numerous stories I recommend to be read and a few of them are posted on my favs list if anyone's interested in checking out stories that'll blow your mind.
AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR THE READERS OF MY FANFIC, ON THE BRINK: I will no longer be posting or continuing this story as per the ...um... persuasion of my parents, who were wary abt my doing this in the first place. Sorry, to all my wonderful readers Again, sorry...its been great, and I appreciate all those who stuck with me as long as you all did.

Yayy! I'm the first reviewer...Okay, this chapter was pretty good; I've been waiting and waiting and waiting for an update and, this is more than I expected. I like this fic, it's not cliche that's for sure...Update soon, plz. 10/10 like always
Date: 03/12/05 Title: None
NOOOO! What's happening with the next chapter? You really MUST update soon, I'm dying with anticipation here!!! 10/10
Date: 03/16/05 Title: None
Excellent! OMG! I loved your portrayal of Draco, all hysterical-like: "I'm blind! I can't see!" That must of hurt for him..all that glass and blood in his eyes and on top of that literally...Hermione falling on him! I'm sort of surpised with Hermione's instant telling of what exactly happened, I kinda thought she'd keep it a secret, ya know? Still, I love it...can't wait for more Hermione/Draco contact and possibly (hopefully) profound intimacy....update soon...10/10...like always
Born the Day You Kissed Me by CLee
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: I was born the day you kissed me...I died inside the night you left me...But oh how I lived while you loved me. . . .
The sequel Agapanthus is up!
Date: 04/19/05 Title: Chapter 1: Home for the Holidays
OMG! Such despair, such sadness. Draco gone, Hermione being strangled, her parents dead...who else is next? Crookshanks? Hehe..nice installment...update soon. 10/10

Love it! Can't wait for an update! Give it a 10 out of 10!

Love this! When your next update, approxiamtely? This is a bad azz fic! Give it a 10 out of 10!

Hello! I would just like to say that this fic is bloody brillant! You haven't updated for a few months though and I'm dying of suspense here. Is Emma possibly going to let slip a few things that would occur the gang's 4th year? Will Draco discover the difference between Emma and Hermione? Nice fic!!! By the way, what was the name of the Potion Hermione used to accidentally switch with Emma? I wanna try to make it..maybe it can transport me to Hogwarts and I could talk to Dumbledore about enrollment...:D hehe. I'd have to say that this is defintely one of the very few Humor Fics that had me laughing...Keep it up....10/10
Author's Response: thank you so much! I FINALLY got to updating.
Chapter five is up.

Even better every time! I like how you portrayed Harry's musings on Malfoy, Ginny and Hermione's thoughts...just beautiful! Keep it up. 10/10
Date: 03/20/05 Title: None
I love this! I like how you had Draco's uncaring, sinister nature reveal itself once more after they leave Dumbledore's office and how Harry always seems to be finding her all over the place...are you absolutely sure that you're not Rowling in disguise?..I like how Draco's prophecy is too....10/10 although I would love to give you a higher mark, actually I think I will.. 20/10
Author's Response: Sorry, not JK... not sure I want to be JK. I'll settle for just being me. I'm glad you like Draco's prophecy. I wasn't sure how it would come across. Thanks... a 20/10, that's the best I've gotten!
Date: 03/12/05 Title: None
Wow! It's nice how you gave this chapter from Draco's POV and his feeling on this startling news. Draco, the Half-Blood Prince? Who wouldv'e guessed? A lot of people would probably disregard him as the Prince since he's portrayed to be pureblood, but I like your twist very much. Shame on Elle Felton for attempting to plagarize your story...*scolds greatly*...I'm glad she was found out...anywho, I give this chapter and story so far a 10 out 10, since I can't give 20/10.
Author's Response: Hmm... I thought I had spelled it out in the first few chapters with the prophecy and all... I guess I was even more vague than I intended. As for Draco being the HBP, I think that he is probably the least likely candidate and that in my book makes it even more interesting. Thanks for the review and I'm really happy that you like the story!
In the Infirmary by JoWannabe
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: One-shot. While reading OotP, I noticed that only Ron and Hermione were still staying in the infirmary when Harry visited them; Neville's nose and Ginny's ankle had been mended, and Luna was back to normal, whatever normal means for her. So, from this knowledge, this fic emerged. It's my version of what could have happened that night after Harry, Ginny, Neville, and Luna had gone.
Date: 04/30/05 Title: Chapter 1: In the Infirmary
One word...Wow!...I didn't even notice that it had just been Ron and Hermione left in the hospital wing at the end of 5th year. You did an excellent job at portraying what might've happened during the time they were alone. 10/10
Civility by SecretKeeper
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: THE LAST CHAPTER IS IN! Read, review and enjoy! The first battle of the second War- Dementors illegally issuing the Kiss on Death Eaters- A murder in the Weasley family- Voldemort's plans- Dumbledore's and Harry's struggle. In the midst of this chaos and hardship, Hermione is left feeling slightly disheartened. When Harry and Ron are temporarily unavailable to befriend her, an ironic and seemingly platonic relationship is born. Will it ease the pain of the War's influence, or will it only create further turmoil for a girl that needs anything but? And in the end, a terrible decision is left to be made; one that no natural person would envy.
Date: 03/22/05 Title: Chapter 14: Broken
Poor Hermione...she's really torn at two crossroads....not wanting to leave Draco or stay and regret her decision for not helping Harry and Ron...intense decision making....I have a feeling love will conquer all. Will Draco decide to go with her and Harry and Ron and make sure she doesn't get hurt? And possibly stand defiantly up to his father? One can only hope...nice installment as always....10/10
Author's Response: Wow, thanks for the detailed review! Yes, I admit that my original plans were for this story to go under Dark/Angsty until I was challenged to make it a romance- at which point I had to really do away with the dark tones. (I tried keeping some, though.) As such, Hermione has gone through a lot. I'll say this much: Love always conquers all; the real problem is defining "conquer", and moreover what loving someone means... and often times it's sacrifice. But remember Han! There's always hope. Thanks again!! : D
Author's Response: >.< *Hits self* I forgot you're the same person as the one who posted the subsequent review... one that I already responded to! Duhr. Oh well... two reviews, two responses
Date: 03/22/05 Title: Chapter 14: Broken
I'm reviewing again...so, this is the last chapter or is there are least one more? I know you dislike sequels but could you possibly make an exception for your own. This story has so many positive reviews, I've noticed, that I'm sure your same faithful reviewers will love it even more if a continuation was ijn order...although, I think that I caught your drift with the whole sequel deal; the original seems to always be the best of all the subsequent ones made afterwards. Like I previously said though, it is an attention-grabbing fic made by a TRUE writer with much talent. 10/10 or mayebe 20/10 :D
Author's Response: Hello! Firstly, THANK YOU so much for always reviewing! I really appreciate all your support. Also, "Broken" was NOT the last chapter- alas, one more awaits on the near horizon. And the whole sequel bit has me quite torn. One one hand, I say that I trust myself not to make it awful... on the other, I imagine that's what all writers say. I'll wait to speak on this further... I'd like you to read the ending first. But you're right- my reviewers have been amazing (including you!) and I'm sure at least a couple would continue to be if I wrote one. *Blushes red at the last two lines* Thanks again!! Really, you've been wonderful...
Date: 02/28/05 Title: Chapter 1: Prologue: In Medias Res
I love this story! I find that you are an excellent writer...the plot is simply impressive, not to mention intriguing. Your titles are original and I'd say you're doing beyond brillant with your first fanfic. When I finished reading your most recent chapter I hoped that there wouldn't be a cliffhanger, but all the same, can't wait for the next chapter. It's nice to finally read a Hermione/Draco fic that isn't rated R...a nice, tame story, that has you feeling sympathetic for the supposed "bad-boy Slytherin" and shows a whole other side of his person. It's enjoyable to see how you portray Draco to still have his arrogant personalty, but still have a sensitive side. Always knew that there was something else about him. Anywho, I'm babbling....can't wait for the following development....bloody brillant...I rate this story a 10 out of 10. (I'd rate it higher, but unfortunately it doesn't run that way.)
Author's Response: *BLUSHES FURIOUSLY* Thank you very, very much!! Your review REALLY made my day! I've tried super hard to bring out another side in Malfoy, and yet keep him as In Character as possible. It's been QUITE the challenge, but well worth it. The next update is a real emotional breakdown, possibly worse than the one in "Han", but I suspect many readers will let out a sigh of relief over it. I didn't enjoy writing it as much, because I feel the suspence has gone... but not to worry, for I've devised more in the next chapters. ; ) Thanks again, VERY much!
Date: 03/01/05 Title: Chapter 13: These Frail Words
Wow! Simply amazing this is! I love how you protray the tension and Draco's internal struggle as to whether or not he should reveal his feeling! A couple of chapters left...aah...just a couple more? When this is all over, are you planning writing a sequel, a continuation, possibly? I hope so...anywho, Excellent job, SecretKeeper! I imagine it would be QUITE the challenge to portray a depper, more understanding side of the supposed "all-evil, cunning, blah, blah," Draco Malfoy...I must say you have accomplished this task very well...unlike other authors works' I've read and reviewed. Keep it up! Still a 10 out of 10!
Author's Response: WOW! Thank you SO much!! I'm so very glad you like my story, it means A LOT to me. : ) Thanks for pointing out certain specifics as well, it really helps. I will tell you this much: I've just updated, meaning there is only one chapter left. BUT, all I can say for now is... errr... the way it's left off, leaves the possibility open for a sequel. I could easily write one, but I generally dislike them. Hmm... I say no more for now. I must go ponder. Thanks again!!
Date: 04/17/05 Title: Chapter 15: Civility
Wow...I'm so sad to see that this is finally the end...I won't pressure you to write a sequel though, but it would be nice to see where the battle swings. I sort of loathed Dumbledore in this, for putting Draco in his place, even though I understood his reasons. Why must there be so much torment in Hermione and Draco's relationship? The agony is unbearable...It's hard to believe all this drama and heartache occured in the time span of a week...10/10...I'll definitely be sticking with you on your furture endeavors on MN, so it's unneccesary to say that I know your work will be excellent! Keep it up, you've got real talent. I feel like I "grew up with this fic, ya know?
Author's Response: And YOU, my dear, have been one of THE best reviewers in the world. I couldn't possibly thank you enough! I'm sad to see it's over as well. I had so much fun writing this (largely because of you!), but I know I'll put out even better stories soon. Oh, and I know what you mean about Dumbledore... he was quite irritating, wasn't he? Even as I writed that scene I just wanted to yell at him to shut up. Oh well- that was necessary. And thanks very, VERY much for your incredible compliments. I'm just beyond flattered that you think so highly of my writing. And your comment about growing up with my fic- that was one of the best I've ever read. Thank you. It was simple, yet sweet and endearing. Until next time- xOxO
Reversal by Fain Oakenbringer
Rated: •Summary: After unwittingly consuming a potion, Harry and Draco switch personalities. And though he's horrified at his niceness initially, Draco's starting to have a very warm, fuzzy feeling for a certain Mudblood...
Date: 04/23/05 Title: Chapter 1: Nice? Draco Malfoy?
Hmmm....I have the feeling that I've read this story somewhere before...the whole pumpkin juice thing and the whole swapping personalities things....you didn't by any chance post this on another site, did you? 9/10
Date: 03/27/05 Title: None
Very nice, CLee; just like all your other fics, this was excellent. So, now that Hermione's flooed to Draco's what's gonna happen now? Is Harry really dead or will he be found in later chapters, possibly finding a little, shall we say, romance has blossomed between Draco and Hermione? Am I on spot? 10/10..update soon
Date: 02/28/05 Title: None
Excellent Story! The song by Natalia Imbruglia that you picked to go along with this story is absolulely brillant. I must admit though, I never thought that Hermione would give in soooo easily, and I just can't picture DRaco doing something like this....in like, EVER! I mean, I've read stories where he's done MUCH worse and I must say that this is relatively tame. LOVE it all the same, though. I give it a 10 out of 10!

Um...were those random followers, by any chance, Goyle and Crabbe? No, wait, they're too daft? The letter from Snape wasn't from Snape either was it? 10/10
