Author has written 5 stories for Harry Potter, and A song of Ice and Fire.

INTRODUCTION

My name is Emma, and I write fanfiction and original works across multiple platforms.

I'm slightly too obsessed with Harry Potter, Game of Thrones and Downton Abbey - as well as other fandoms. I would love feedback - but please remember I am 18 and my attempt at writing may not quite meet the standards of JK Rowling or the similar quality writing found in the Downton Abbey section of fanfiction.

Hope you enjoy my creations!

HARRY POTTER FANFICTIONS:

The Greater Good {Prequel to Pity the Living}

A fanfiction based on the tale of the death of Ariana Dumbledore and the relationships between Ariana, Albus and Aberforth Dumbledore and how they are affected when Gellert Grindelwald moves to Godric's Hollow. I have seen very few fanfictions based on the tale of the young Dumbledores and the few that there are tend to be historically incorrect. This was a story set in the late 1890s. So I took it upon myself to write the story with a little plot creation along the way! It is a prequel to my fanfiction 'Pity the Living'.

Pity the Living

A long fanfiction, probably 300K words when finished, based on the tale of Tom Riddle's childhood with the addition of an older sisterly figure. It is very dark, brutally historically accurate and psychologically realistic. It confronts his story, with my own original character, in a way that truly represents the canon reality that is often ignored by readers, particularly the conditions of his childhood based on historical sources. This story is set between the 1930s and 1950s and is very mature and heavy.

GAME OF THRONES/ASOIAF FANFICTIONS:

Ghost

A short fanfiction based on a young Jaime Lannister serving as Kingsguard to Aerys Targaryen, finding love with the bastard of the King he serves. It is an almost poetry-like style of writing. A good short tale for Jaime Lannister lovers.

The Greater Good - A Harry Potter Fanfiction reviews
Ariana Dumbledore was someone that history forgot. In the summer of 1898, the great-nephew of a neighbour comes to visit Godric's Hollow, what happens next was left very vague and secret. All that came of it was tragedy, a piece of history left untouched - and for good reason. Because the best tragedies are always love stories, aren't they?
