Author has written 3 stories for Harry Potter.

High school teacher cum stay-at-home mom. Love to read, but new to writing. Well, new to writing anything I would let see the light of day (not that the stuff I'll be posting here is Tolstoy, or anything). I'm a lurker (make that a super-lurker)on all the DHr sites. I love that quirky hotbed of dysfunction (the ship, not the sites), but would die a thousand deaths if my family, my colleagues or, heaven-forbid, my students (!) discovered my dirty little secret.

January 24, 2007 Agggh... I absolutely hate the last chapter of ADHOC and it's making it difficult for me to continue so I think I have no choice but to rework it before I post the next chapter. Stay tuned. More coming soon. BTW A thousand thank yous to those who've stuck with me. I noticed the other day someone removed me from their alert list... sigh... sad...like being passed over for a dance. Just call me Wallflower. Anyway, it really makes me appreciate the patience of my regular readers that much more. Thanks. xxooxx

February 8, 2007 Posted revised eleven and twelve today. I know twelve is short, but I wanted the HUGE BLOW UP to have its own chapter. I am re-committing myself to ths story. I intend to finish it before Easter. SO, stay tuned...

February 9,2007 I've received a couple of requests about continuing "The Rules". I'm sorry to say, that I'm not going to be doing that. I have reasons: 1. Originally, I had several chapters outlined, but they are not very good, which is why I posted it as a one-off. I feel the plot, such as it is, is contrived and the protagonists are too OOC. 2. In my mind's eye, (keeping in your mind's eye, that I am a married woman and have been for a long, long time) I see Hermione, despite their feelings for each other, breaking up with him during their conversation. She's just too morally upright to continue their relatonship for very long, because she feels it's wrong. and 3. I think this tale has already been told, repeatedly (and better) by others. I had given some thought to writing something along the lines of a follow up in which Hermione sees Draco out with his child somewhere and thinks to herself that she made the right decision. If I get any positive feedback in this direction, I may do it. Otherwise, the story is finished. Thanks again for reading and reviewing. XOXO

March 12, 2007 Hey all!. Boy is my face red. "I intend to finish this story by Easter". Famous last words. In addition to my normal over-scheduled life, I am currently in the throes of crippling writer's block. It's never been like this before. THE WORDS JUST WONT COME. I have an outline. I know where I want the story to go, but I just can't get there. Crazy, I know. Well, You guys hang in there and I'll keep trying. Maybe the drought will be over soon. IF anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears.

June 6, 2007 Still Alive... still horribly overscheduled...still embarassed... still trying to write my way out of this malaise. In regards to ADHOC, someone asked "What does Hermione want Harry to do?" That is a great question. Another was "How could Draco possibly be the father of Claire's baby?" . You all are very clever and definitely on the right track. In a few days time, I think I'm going to just post what I've got for the new chapter, bad though it is and we'll try to take it from there. In my wildest hopes, I'd like to finish this story before Deathly Hallows comes out because I have this dreadful feeling that several major characters won't live to see the end, rendering this story (and all my others) AU. We'll see how that goes. (Yeah Sarepta, good luck with all that) I have been working (don't have anything on paper yet) on a one-shot sequel to Lament in which the Potion's Master has a chat with Leo Weasley. Would andyone be interested in reading that? Even a tiny bit? Thanks so much for continuing to read my stale old stuff. You guys are awesome.
