Author has written 26 stories for Horatio Hornblower, Misc. Movies, Jane Eyre, Harry Potter, Phantom of the Opera, Downton Abbey, and Once Upon a Time.

I am a hopeless Brit-lit-ophile and aspiring author with a special love for period drama. I write because it makes me happy. If my scribblings make others happy as well, even better.
