I'm one of those people who has a reading problem.

As a toddler, I was known to assault my parent's visitors with stacks of book nearly taller than I was, a pat of my hand on the couch next to me, and an expectant look.

I'm pretty sure I won the class "bookworm award" 6 years in a row during my elementary education. As an adult, I've had to take frequent breaks from reading as I tend to get completely sucked in to the world of fiction, barely surfacing to fill my air with lungs let alone fulfill my basic duties.

I tend to grab onto a book with both hands and read like my life depends on it, only to be a little bit heartbroken and a little bit relieved when I've finished it.

And so, when I discovered the magical rabbit hole that is fanfiction, in a way I felt my life was both completed and ruined. How could I ever learn to tear myself away from reading when there was an unlimited supply right at my fingertips?

I have a particular love of Harry Potter fanfics, and mostly read Draco/Hermione pairings. I love the versatility of this pairing and all the creative ways authors have made this unlikely pair come together, as well as the redemptive arc necessary to make it happen. I love the idea that people are people, and nobody is so lost that they cannot change their path if they really desire to do so.

After years of reading them, I've decided to challenge myself and add my own stamp to the fanfiction world by writing their stories myself. I hope I can sweep you away in my stories as so many others have done for me.
