Author has written 11 stories for Ironman, Vanity Fair, Eastern Promises, Transformers, Brothers Bloom, and James Bond.

Hello!

Who would have thought that it would take a pandemic to get writing again? Not me, that's for sure. But I've been enjoying the time off and staying productive.

Hope you're keeping healthy and sane!

Also, I've got a few moodboard playlists on Spotify for some stories; music that inspired me while writing specific stories. PM me if you're interested in listening.

Whatever Happens (for Transformers)
This story is all Mikaela/Lennox - if you liked The Idea of Seeing You Here, then you'll love this fic!

That Japanese Judge Is Very Tough - The Brothers Bloom
I love, love, love this movie! I can only hope that I've done the characters justice, especially since it's from Bloom's point of view. Come to think of it, this is the first time that I've written directly from a man's perspective...

Duty-Bound for Transformers
This story was requested by Frankius17 and it grew into a quite a fic. I did a lot of research for it, especially for the locations used: Indonesia and Darwin, Australia. Though it features Mikaela and Lennox as the characters the story follows most, their relationship is of friendship only; Sam and Mikaela are very much a couple in this.

Captives for Iron Man
My first and favourite story! I really, really love how it all turned out. My original concept for the story started out as "What if a woman had been trapped in the cave with Tony?" Then there was the female airman in his convoy, and the whole thing basically fell into place right there. Ramirez grew into such an amazing person over the course of the story, something that has been so enjoyable to write. The other thing that developed - it kind of took me by surprise actually - is the relationship between Stark and Ramirez; it's so beautiful. I also had fun writing Yinsen's character. He's very mysterious, and even after all is said and done I still don't know everything about him. Thus, speaking objectively, if you like Iron Man and Tony Stark, you'll probably like reading this.

Dasvidania (Goodbye) for Eastern Promises
My first oneshot! I tinkered with this story for months... I'm quite proud of it, though it is a sad one. Viggo Mortensen as Nikolai - simply an incredible performance there! As for the film, it's gruesome. Only after tracking down a screenplay to check content and watching only selected scenes was I able to watch it, because it is not at all a movie I could/would otherwise. Vincent Cassel also deserves a word of praise; he's French in real life, but playing a Russian mobster in England. Accent overload? Not for this guy. He would've fooled me any day. And that summarizes my ramblings about this fic.

The Idea of Seeing You Here for Transformers
This pairing was difficult to work with, so I tried to keep as much a realistic setting as possible; hence I didn't want to deviate into an out-of-movie encounter. As for the title, it's a line from a song, so I probably should mention: credit goes to The Age of the Understatement by The Last Shadow Puppets.


ON HIATUS:

Masquerade for Vanity Fair
I'm not working on this at the moment, but I still want to complete this story. I've been having trouble trying to figure out where I want it to go; I plan on re-watching both the movie and the BBC version, and I should have some idea of what the heck I'm doing after that. I'll keep you posted!

A Deadly Decision by ScribeOfIvanhoe reviews
In Chapter 39 of Ivanhoe, Bois-Guilbert visits Rebecca in her cell, trying to convince her to flee with him rather than risk burning at the stake. "Bethink thee, were I a fiend, yet death is a worse, and it is death who is my rival." What if Rebecca's response was slightly different, and Death took her at her word? Would it change the fate of Rebecca and Brian?
