Just wanted to leave a note to say I'm sorry I have been flooding your inboxes with notices. I am attempting to upload all of my fanfiction here so it will all be together when I am looking for something. Hopefully in the meantime, you will read something you might have missed! Enjoy! 04/01/2010

"Writing is easy. All you do is stare at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead."- Gene Fowler

"The secret of good writing is to say an old thing in a new way or to say a new thing in an old way." - Richard Harding Davis

A writer needs loneliness, and he gets his share of it. He needs love, and he gets shared and also unshared love. He needs friendship. In fact, he needs the universe. To be a writer is, in a sense, to be a day-dreamer - to be living a kind of double life. - Jorge Luis Borges

FILIUS AND POMONA FINALLY HAVE A HOME OF THEIR OWN!! The CR Boards is just getting on its feet, but I think we could all have a lot of fun there! You can hang out, make polls, play games, post Charming Roots fanfic, and post all your "friends of Charming Roots" fanfic as well! Please check it out!

I have been writing a lot of contests for the Hideaway and for the ADMM boards, so I thought I would give you links and a bit of info about them.

The Hideaway is a great site full of fun people who all enjoy the world of Harry Potter. There are writing and art contests, RPG areas, games, and discussion threads to hang out in. The coolest part of this site for me is that when you sign up you take a short, easy quiz and our headmistress sorts you into a House. Each House has its own password-protected common room and Head of House and Prefect. I am lucky enough to be prefect of Hufflepuff and I'm very proud of my Badgers! If you do sign up, mention OSUSprinks and Hufflepuff will earn 15 points, while you will have earned my eternal devotion:-)

The ADMM Boards are for those who ship Albus and Minerva. The people on the boards are incredibly sweet and encouraging. It is a great place to post fanfiction, participate in the challenge tag, or just hang out and talk about our favorite couple or anything really! If you love AD/MM, you should be there!

My dear friend, Always Hopeful, and I have teamed up to try our hand at collaborative writing. You can find us here under the name Hopeful Sprinkles and we currently have one fic posted! Please read and let us know what you think!

A little about me... I am known as Sprinks, Sprinkles, and Mona, none of which are my real name. I am a huge fan of The Ohio State University and it's football team! In Tressel We Trust!! I am working towards a degree that, once I receive my Masters of Education, will allow me to teach high school American history, which I love, and high school level economics, government, political science, and geography, all of which I would sooner forget! Hmmmm... I don't know what else to tell you. I'm a bit of a quote junkie. I have just started knitting. I love to read. I own three copies each of Austen's Pride and Prejudice and Persuasion, both of which I have read too many times to count. I love Alexander McCall Smith (especially his Isabel Dalhousie series, I love that woman) and Father Andrew M. Greeley, but give me a good mystery, romance, chic story, or my favorite, all three in one plot, and I am a happy happy woman. Anything else you want to know, just ask!
