Author has written 5 stories for Twilight.

I fell down the Twilight fanfiction rabbit hole in 2012 and have been living here very happily ever since.

There are amazing writers here who give us creative, entertaining and engaging stories. Their generosity has provided me with countless hours of enjoyment.

I've recently harnessed the courage to write some stories of my own.

Come find me on Facebook where I'm Purl E. Surly: https://www.facebook.com/purly.surly


I'm so excited! I wrote a little story for the 2016 Twilight Tricks and Treats contest and it was honored with two awards:

Secret Keeper's Award from Alice's White Rabbit Validator's Award from Songster

Thank you to them for selecting my little tale, Just Clowning Around. You can find it in 'My Stories'.
