Author has written 84 stories for Merlin, Game of Thrones, and Sword in the Stone.

Hi.

I will do a brief bio. I live on the west coast of England in a place called The Wirral. It is a lovely area towns with plenty of countryside in between and plenty of water, which is one of my therapies whenever life gets stressful. I work in the Council and when I'm not working I do fanfics, listen to music, sketch, birdwatching and seeing my friends.

I always loved English Literature at school, books were my total obsession. I also loved writing, and was always writing stories. But when I left school I sort of left my writing behind and as a result completely forgot about how much I loved writing. That all changed when I came across a website called The Heart of Camelot. The website at the time was based around the TV show Merlin, which I totally adored. Joining that website totally changed my life (no exaggeration).

All of a sudden I discovered my love for writing again, and before long I was writing once again, mainly Merlin stories, but I have also done some Game of Thrones and The Musketeer drabbles as well. I really enjoy getting inside the heads of characters, and finding out how they tick. I also enjoy writing about lesser known characters as well, which is why you will find ones about people like Mordred, Freya, Sefa, Mithian and Sir Leon. It is always good fun thinking about a lesser known character's background, all of a sudden you have a clean slate to write from; which is great fun.

My main motivation to begin writing was after seeing the last episode of Merlin, I wasn't entirely happy about it. But instead of raging about it, I preferred to write my own version of what happened at the end of series five, hence my story A Sense of Closure. When I watched the show I did not get any closure from it, but by the time I had finished my story I was a lot more relaxed about it.

I don't rage about the end of Merlin now, and prefer to remember the good things about it, which are many. Any thing I am not happy about, there is always fan fiction. I also do graphics.

My favourite show has to be Merlin. I fell in love with the show right from the first series. As someone with a life long love of the Arthurian Legend, I guess it was love at first sight. I adored the characters in the first series especially with Merlin-Gwen being among my favourites. While I love Merlin-Arthur and their relationship (no slash!) I love every bit as much the smaller characters. I really feel there are very few characters in this show I don't like writing about, I love Sefa, Mithian as much as the four core characters. I love writing about Merlin's magic and how it affects his life and friends.
