Author has written 5 stories for Harry Potter, and Matilda.

'Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible kind of magic.' - Albus Dumbledore, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

There is no friend as loyal as a book. - Ernest Hemingway

Hi everyone! I am eternally thankful for all the support, reviews, favorites and follows that I received for my story Discoveries, but due to an increase in other commitments in my life, the story was removed. I want to thank you all so much for being so patient with me, and I'm pleased to announce that Discoveries - Rewritten is now up! The chapters will be slightly odd in style until we reach those that have not previously been posted, and then it will change, hopefully for the better. Please, go and check it out for yourselves, and leave me a little review to tell me what you think!

Maybe you want to enjoy some other shorter works in the mean time?

Happy Reading!

Thank you all.

UPDATE: Hi Everyone! You might have guessed, but I wanted to make it official. Unfortunately I've pretty much given up on writing at the moment (don't you hate it when you have to deal with real life?) and so Discoveries - Rewritten has also been abandoned. I can't imagine I'll ever return to it, especially as my hard drive crashed and I'm pretty sure I lost everything I'd done so far anyway. Sorry all!

There might be some new stuff in the future, who knows?
