The Cold Crawleyhide bio
 Author has written 2 stories for Downton Abbey. Hello there! Well, this is my brand new fanfiction account specifically for my Downton obsession and I will hopefully update at least every month, if not I give you permission to PM me telling me to get off my lazy bum and write something! Anyway, I am a massive Mary/Matthew shipper, I don't mind Sybil/Tom but I can't stand Mary/Richard, Anna/Bates and Edith/Anthony. Just my own opinions! But I promise I won't hate on them in any of my stories! I love all things period drama and pretend I'm posh by reading Austen, Bronte sisters and old fashioned classics but I do occasionally crave Game Of Thrones, Chuck, Miranda, Sherlock, Doctor Who, the Hour and True Blood. Please take the time to review and I promise to reply to any questions you may have! Feel free to PM me any time, be it random excitement about Downton or venting dislike about Mary/Richard. I will always reply, but it may not be immediately. |
