Author has written 3 stories for Sherwood Smith, Haven, and Star Wars.

Maya "Fried Bread Cheeks" is an aspiring writer, artist, actress and dreamer who keeps trying to juggle all of her interests at once (she needs to practice her juggling skills). She likes to think of herself as rather insane, but her friends have been known to call her "f-ing chill" and generally very level-headed. She enjoys snarky humor and loves quotes from Oscar Wilde. She adores stargazing and discussing philosophy as much as she loves performing on the stage. The name Fried Bread Cheeks was given to her by Adam Fortunate Eagle when she was a baby due to her lovely little chubby face. She wonders why all this was in third person, but realizes that the mysteries of the universe are not comprehended easily, and won't lose sleep over it (she likes her sleep).

And last but not least, she is an avid fan of books and movies and TV and creation through art in general. So on to the good stuff: the results of her playing around with a few fan 'shippings will hopefully appear here in glorified comprehensible-ness.


UPDATE - March 2014: The juices are flowing on the SWTOR story (the juices are strong with this one?)... I'm hoping to get a load more chapters out soon. Hope you like!


"A little sincerity is a dangerous thing, and a great deal of it is absolutely fatal." -Oscar Wilde

The age of the Inquisition is upon them. No one can escape from the change that will sweep across Thedus; not even Hawke who is freshly emerged from the ashes of Kirkwall.

Fade Touched by HeidiBug731 reviews
As difficult as it is for Varric to write Fenris of Hawke's death, it's even harder for Fenris to accept. Resigned to living as a wraith in the former Amell estate, Fenris' friends refuse to let him destroy himself. But his dreams of Hawke reaching out to him from the Fade might prove to be more than what they seem. (Takes place after the events of Inquisition.)

Odd Couple by Emilinia-sama reviews
If Varric hadn't been there himself, hadn't seen the two together, he'd very likely have laughed at the mere implication that the grumpy, broody, melodramatic porcupine disguised as an elf and Hawke would've had anything to do with one another. As it was, it was the worst story he'd ever seen. Varric's POV; Snarky!M!HawkexFenris pairing (don't like, don't read)

Silver Blue by Graymalkyn reviews
Irina Hawke is Carver's younger sister. Her fear of magic is almost as strong as Fenris's hatred of it. Their differences are just an illusion, but their loneliness is genuine. Whether the obstacles to overcome are real or imaginary is something that they have to discover on their own... Though perhaps "together" is the key.
