Author has written 16 stories for Yu-Gi-Oh, Sherlock, and Walking Dead.

I am currently taking a break from continuing a few of my multichapter fanfics, as I haven't had much inspiration in a bit, but I will finish all of my stories: I promise. I won't/would never abandon a story, because I know how an incomplete story makes you feel.

A profile should be lighthearted, right? Well, I suck at lighthearted, and I'm not good with words in this sense, so this profile will be miserable(as proven by the serious, above paragraph). Honestly, I don't even have anything to write here, ever, so I've forgotten why I've continued to bother.

I didn't realize until now just how seriously depressing my pen name sounds. God, why hasn't someone told me to change that? I'll get to changing it soon. Probably.

Well, you don't need to be Sherlock Holmes to tell that I like Johnlock(who ever came up with this ship name deserves many awards (not sure whether the good or bad type). Angst is almost always guranteed when reading my stories(maybe I am depressed?), unless I'm in a particularly happy mood(unlikely).

Nightmares, Rain, and a Leaky Roof by Katerina Riley reviews

Two Halves of the Same Whole reviews

Marrow reviews
Sherlock was a man of acquired taste, had an odd sense of style when it came to meals, and John was aware of that fact; he wouldn't have thought he'd be so intimately aware of it, though. He never expected Sherlock's excellent stew to have such...unheard of ingredients, either.
