Author has written 37 stories for Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman, Law and Order: SVU, Law and Order, CSI: Miami, Law and Order: CI, Ashes to Ashes, Hollyoaks, Horatio Hornblower, Taggart, Rocky, Deadwood, Casualty, Due South, and Bill.

Hi there! My name's Isobel, I'm 37 from bonny Scotland. I love writing fan fiction and my fave shows are Angel, Law and Order (the early years), LO:CI, Dr Quinn Medicine Woman, Life on Mars/Ashes to Ashes and Deadwood, all of which I've had a go at writing for. It's always great when someone reads your stories, but please leave a review too. Even a couple of words is great encouragement!

My most recent fanfiction foray centres around HBOs Deadwood. My current stories, in order, are:

1. Hell of A Place

2. A Fragile Life

3. The Companion

4. Sweet Home Deadwood

My longest story so far is in the Dr Quinn Medicine Woman section entitled 'An Heir Apparent'. More than 12 years later and I'm still going! My goal is to finish it before I turn 40 - no joke!!

I hope you'll maybe swing by and take a look as well as at some of my previous (and often unfinished) attempts at other shows!
