Author has written 12 stories for Harry Potter, Sherlock, Radio Dramas, Death in Paradise, and Silent Witness.

Ok, about me, well I'm rubbish at writing profiles.

I'm a busy mum of 1 and working full time, living on the south coast of England.

My passions (in general) are Sherlock, Lewis, Morse, any crime thriller really, occasional sci fi (Babylon 5, Star Trek), anything written by someone with a brain and a sense of humour e.g. Mofftiss. Also love the style of older films, the Powell and Pressburger movies, Alfred Hitchcock, 39 Steps etc etc.

My fanfic passions at the moment are Sherlock (no surprise!), Star Trek, Silent Witness, Dr Who (mostly 9th, 10th and 11th doctors), Harry Potter

I LOVE reading a lot - big fan of Terry Pratchett, Kate Atkinson, Margaret Atwood, Thomas Keneally etc., but am open to anything anyone suggests.

I have an English degree and my written English is not too bad, so I'm good at picking up on grammar and can provide Britpicking tips to anyone who needs them. I love reading and providing constructive (and I hope enthusiastic) criticism.

I had a Brit Picker's guide to writing Sherlock on here for a while, but I was made aware that it might contravene the rules, so before it got removed, I decided to take it down. Sorry if you're looking for it. I have published an updated version on another well known fanfic site where my username is the same as on here. PM me if you need to know where.
