Author has written 15 stories for Harry Potter.

My pen-name comes from an E.E. Cummings poem, called 'into the strenuous briefness'.

I'm British, obviously a big HP fan, and I do like to write on occasion (lots of occasions) in present tense. I am aware (now, anyway) that not everybody likes this, so I apologise for it! I also prefer one-shots, and judging by my updating speed, I think that's probably the best idea for me.

Thank you for checking out my profile, and I hope you enjoy my fic!

The Prophet's Story reviews
Scorpius is assigned to cover Rose Weasley's wedding - the trouble is that she's his ex, and they didn't exactly leave things on good terms. Loosely based off the Philadelphia Story.

At the Top reviews
Commencing Operation Get Scorpius a Girlfriend (because frankly he needs all the help he can get). Blackmail is an ugly business, but it's the only way Scorpius will be able to persuade Rose to pretend to date him in order to make his last girlfriend jealous. It's a fool-proof plan! (... isn't it?)
