My display pic is an AMAZING picture of Jess in You Can't Spell Slaughter Without Laughter as illustrated by my great friend Tamara Evans (who has many incredible fics... Look her up! She is amazing!). It's just a sneak preview of many more pieces of art by Tamara to come, connected to the story. I'll post links when they're up! Love you, Tam!!

Fandoms I read: I really don't do a lot of FF reading, honestly, unless it's a story I'm hooked on. I find only the rare work really grabs me... This is not to say I believe I'm better than ANYONE. Just a personal thing, you know? However, if the story is exceptional, I read Dark Knight (Joker/OC), Harry Potter (Snape/OC), Inglourious Basterds (Landa/OC) and Abarat (Christopher/ You guessed it, OC). I like OC's. Good ones.

My Stories:

You Can't Spell Slaughter Without Laughter: Just celebrated its one year anniversary and, let me say, the difference in the writing now vs. then is striking. It's about a girl from our universe who finds herself in Gotham as a newly recruited member of the Joker's Lucky Twenty... Surreal sometimes and a little dark... A Joker/OC romance which follows the plot of Dark Knight. I'm trying very hard to keep it in character and good. Reviews always help!

Alone Down There: A Labyrinth fic in which Sarah's daughter has been raised in the Underground after her mother dies. Jareth/OC romance. Very extensively researched. I'm very proud of it.

Playing Cruelty: Kind of an experiment and journey into one of my stranger crushes, Colonel Hans Landa. Set during the movie and complete with foreign language. American Hazel Montgomery is in the business of assisting Jews across Swiss or Spanish borders while simultaneously living the life of a Parisian under the alias Adele Benoit. Obviously, her relationship with Landa gets a little complicated.

And that's... pretty much it.

I like writing. That's my favorite thing to do and OF COURSE everyone tries fanfiction at least once in their life. Any real writer who says they don't write FF or have no interest in it is lying. It's a cool creative outlet, which is why I'm doing this.

I like reviews... like A LOT. I'm a review fiend.

So have fun with my works! Let me know if you like them.

I'll probably post more, different stories soon.

I have a Beta now!! Her name is Tamara Evans and she has a profile and she's INCREDIBLE.
It was amazing. I got, not only an editor and artist, I got a really amazing friend. One of my best, actually.
Anyway, she has been so important to YCSw/oL... Its life blood, actually. And she's a fantastic writer. Go check out her stuff, in particular Potions and Teenaged Muggles if you like Snape as much as we do.

She'll also be posting some drawings for YCS pretty soon!! I am so excited. They're great. I'll post them here when they're up.

Yolanda Friella was kind enough to make me a beautiful banner for YCS, which you can see here: http:///albums/a403/YolandaFriella/JOKERLAUGHTER.jpg
