Author has written 11 stories for Tuck Everlasting, Phantom of the Opera, Pirates of the Caribbean, Sherlock, and Doctor Who.

I'm a big fan of life, even the weird parts. I like travel, peanut butter, and shuffling a new deck of cards. I don't like the sniffles, blood sausage, or awkward silences. And so I say, let there be music. 'Cause music cures all ills.

Hobbies: Laugh, eat; sleep, talk, smile, pretend, think, be happy. Not necessarily in that order.

I love writing, particularly fanfic. I don't know why, but it's addicting. Music is my second love, especially listening, although I do play. I love everything! Well, except the crappy stuff that is only loved by its mother.

Movie: The Phantom of the Opera (2005 version), The Lord of the Rings (all three), The Princess Bride (inconceivable!), The Village (I thought the ending rocked!), Pirates of the Caribbean (why is the rum always gone?), Fun with Dick and Jane, Hero, Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amelie Poulain, Monty Python's Search for the Holy Grail (Run away! Run away!), Happy Feet (who doesn't love dancing penguins?), and any movie that makes me laugh really, really hard.

Musique: At the moment: Garden State soundtrack (pick anything on there), Mika, Music of the Night by Andrew Lloyd Weber, We Are Scientists, Norah Jones, Frank Sinatra (never changes cause Frankie and me are pals),

Actors: Sean Bean, Johnny Depp, Dame Judi Dench, Audrey Hepburn, Audrey Tautou, Benedict Cumberbatch

Quotes I Like:

All I've ever wanted was an honest week's pay for an honest day's work. --Steve Martin (Bilko)

Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm a schizophrenic and so am I. --Bill Murray (What About Bob)

Reporter: Tell me, how did you find America?
John Lennon: Turned left at Greenland.
"A Hard Day's Night"

'"What makes you think the whole world revolves around you?!" my mother said, as I slowly rotated to maintain eye contact.' - John Alejandro King

"Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh." -George Benard Shaw

Heart on Fire reviews
Sherlock's almost finished the puzzle that Moriarty died without solving. The last piece is a visit to Moriarty's last known associate, a woman living innocuously as a school teacher.

"That's what the Holmes boys are, John. They're like drugs. Like morphine. Medicinal in small, controlled doses; addictive all too quickly; and destructive with regular exposure." There was a falling out, once, between Sherlock and Mycroft, and two more, not unrelated, between the Holmes boys and Maddie. Now John is piecing the tale together.

Yellow Journalism reviews
"Whoever this idiot journalist was, she'd never known Sherlock." Amy Lindner had known Sherlock once, when they were young, and she can't believe the story of his death that the British press is pushing. That was how she found herself a flight to Heathrow with her bag, every scrap of memory she had about Sherlock, and some names scribbled on a piece of paper. Currently on hiatus.
