Author has written 22 stories for Lord of the Rings, LXG, Van Helsing, Underworld, Robert Langdon series, Pirates of the Caribbean, Master and Commander, Ironman, and Watchmen.

Hello out there to anyone who stops by to read this!

Well, this bio has been through a hundred different iterations in the years I have been on this site. I guess here's the latest: I'm a high school English teacher who still occasionally writes and reads fanfiction in-between grading papers, hanging out with my husband, and chasing my ferret and cat around the house. I'm not nearly as active as I used to be, but with a near total obsession with both Hamilton and the Dragon Age series currently consuming me, I just may be posting more often once again!

~ Me

Old notes:

Please be sure to visit my co-author's profile- the Pirates of the Caribbean quintet (prequels to the Saltwater series) we're writing is posted here!

Also, visit my mistress's Xanga. Here we have an ongoing Van Helsing story that's too long to be turned into fanfiction. It's undergoing some revisions at the moment, so it's a little hard to read, but check up on it every once in a while... if you dare!
