Tom O'Bedlamhide bio
 Author has written 17 stories for Harry Potter, We Will Rock You, Jesus Christ Superstar, Good Omens, Death Note, and Edward Scissorhands. Tom O'Bedlam-A wandering beggar who levies charity on the plea of insanity. A famous anonymous Elizabethan poem is called 'Tom O'Bedlam's Song.' I figure insanity to be a prerequisite to writing fiction; here I am, begging reviews. To wit, I am a right Tom O'Bedlam. To see mad Tom of Bedlam, Still I sing, bonny boys About the fics: Mostly one-shots, mostly Harry Potter Blackverse. Lots of Narcissa, lots of Regulus. All of characterizations and plots are internally consistent as well as canonically. Except for 'The More Things Change' which doesn't quite match up with book 7. I killed off a few of the wrong people, and I haven't gotten around to changing any of the names yet. Maybe someday... 'I See' (Jesus Christ Superstar) is unfinished and I currently have writer's block in that direction, but I might update it; you never know. I have vague plans to rewrite 'Save Me' (WWRY) and 'Synethesia' (Good Omens), because neither works quite like I wanted it to, so if you have suggestions, leave a review to that effect. 'Counterpoint in Minor' (Death Note) is an anomaly; I actually like it, and it's not Harry Potter. Maybe someday I'll write something longer than half a page that's actually good! |
