Story update / plug
For those of you who have been reading my Labyrinth fic "Home", it has FINALLY been updated. Sincerest apologies for the 4-and-a-bit month wait. If you've been following the wedding / job saga, you should understand why! I just got a keyboard for my PDA which trebles my input speed (the handwriting thing is a pain in the arse for large bodies of ( Read more... ) -

For anyone that's interested, Incense and Engine Oil has now been posted at Sycophant Hex / Lumos. This is a collaborative work with andrian1 for a challenge at _sortinghat_ and I've plugged it before but I'm a review slut...

Review slut here - please all run, don't walk, to the Sorting Hat journal to check out the very cool story I've written with Andrian. It's in 3 parts cos it wouldn't fit on LJ in one section, and Part One is here (I hope):

I've been reading other people's posts and thinking about how horrific their tales are. How people can do these things, especially to children, is absolutely beyond my comprehension. Part of my mind thinks, "These people are sick, they need help." Yes, definitely, but then that sort of thought isn't far from making the link that this behaviour ( Read more... )More shameless self-promotion
I think it was welshwitch_star's journal where we were having a discussion about fiction and the question of original fiction came up. I wrote a fair bit of original fiction when I was a University student. For a couple of years, I edited the Science Fiction & Fantasy Society's little magazine. I loved doing it, it would be wonderful to do something like that ( Read more... )Reviews & Plug
I just posted a little ficlet up at SHx. It's been on ff.net for a while but I know that things tend to get buried there and a lot of people don't visit the site so I thought I'd go for a more discerning readership. *snigger* Anyway, the story is here ( Read more... )Another Quick Fic
This is for 30minutefics challenge #33 - page 394. Thought I'd post this in my own journal as well as in the community. It's from Neville Longbottom's POV, set shortly after OotP, and it's called Growing Up Scared.
When Professor Lupin asked me in my third year what thing in the world scared me the most, the answer was easy. ( Professor Snape. )AAAAAAArrrrghhh
