Author has written 2 stories for Harry Potter.

I am a 'mature' (read: 'old fart') woman from Texas, been reading fanfiction since 2005 and writing it since 2006. My favorite fandoms are Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings.

HP Favorite characters/pairings: Harry, Severus, Draco, Tom Riddle/Lord Voldemort, McGonagall, Luna, and my OTP is Harry/Severus (yes, I know—SLASH, the horror!), though I like to read well-written (few, but out there) Harry/LV, and Harry/Draco.

LOTR Favorite characters: Legolas, Aragorn, Gandalf, Éowyn, Tom Bombadil, Elrond.

My NC-17 rated fics can be found on my InsaneJournal page, above.

My current fics:

Changing of the Winds: I have 22 chapters plotted. Summary: Someone outside of the wizarding world gives Harry not only a reason to live, but to live well. Independent!Harry, powerful!Harry, no HBP or DH, though some mild spoilers from those books. Main pairing Harry/Severus, though late in the story.

Vahan by TheCauldron reviews
Dumbledore thinks he will rescue Harry from his terrible family, setting himself up as Harry's mentor. Unfortunately for him, somebody else got there first. BAMF!Harry, M for violence, language, child abuse/prostitution, drug use, and all around criminal goings on.

Snapped by cuz-CM's-awesome reviews
Harry Snaps. After a very bad summer with the Dursleys, one of Snape's angering jibs about Harry being the spoiled golden boy sets Harry off. If Snape wants a sickeningly arrogant child to deal with that's what he's going to get. Slash mentions of Abuse

With a Forked Tongue I Lie in Wait (Taming Snakes) by DelusionalGrandeur reviews
Warnings Inside. Dumbledore ought to have known better than to leave an orphaned Harry Potter in the hands of the Dursleys. A twist of fate has the boy-who-lived living with criminals. Sly, cunning, street-smart, sorted into Slytherin where his housemates have been raised to hate him, will Harry survive? Or maybe it's the House of Snakes that doesn't stand a chance.
