How Beautifully Blue the Skyhide bio
 Author has written 7 stories for Harry Potter, and Avengers. Welcome! I'm a veteran fanfiction writer, recently out of retirement. In fact, this is my second fanfiction account - the stories I wrote nearly ten years ago haven't aged well, I'm afraid, and I know if I try to edit them I'll lose my nerve and take them all down. Instead, they're still out there, floating in the cloud, impressions from my early high school years. I write primarily (book) canon, specifically missing moments and some alternate POVs. That's mostly what I read too, though I can go for a nice, niche AU from time to time. I'll be transferring some of my old favorite authors and stories here in the coming days (almost all of which have also retired from fanfiction), and finding new delights and still-updating authors. While I've set an ambitious Goodreads goal for myself this year, I've been diving back into fanfiction with real enthusiasm. Happy reading! |
