Once upon a time there was a girl named Mary. Mary's best friend Beth went to visit her aunt and uncle during the summer. A week later Mary got a letter from Beth's parents telling her about the tragic car accident that killed their little girl. Mary, at Beth's funeral, asked "How do I say good-bye?"

This was the plot of the first story I 'published' when I was eight, at the public library for a contest. It was not the first story I wrote, but it was the first time I killed off a character, something I haven't stopped doing since. I like character death and h/c, with a dose of fluff on occasion and some nice smutty stuff as well.

My name's Sarah. I'm a few years past 30. I have a degree in Psychology. I love to cook and read. My dog has three legs. Someday I hope to write professionally but for now original fiction is something I keep to myself and fanfic is something I post. I write for dozens of fandoms. I could tell you the current ones but by the time I remember to update this they'll be different. I rarely abandon old fandoms and may come back to them. I may finish some of the WIPs on here as well (the Abby kidnapped one for sure.) I've learned my lesson; now I don't post until a story's complete, or at least the first draft is finished.

Procedural shows are some of my favorites. I have a kink for older guy/younger woman but I have many other ships as well. I'm a multishipper; some shows I may have a dozen ships for (unless we're talking about Doctor Who and then the number could be close to a hundred.)

I am no longer uploading my fics to this site. I will update WIPs (Things Half in Shadows, Folly of Youth, Beauty and the Yankee) as I write new chapters, but I will not be posting anything new. I have quite a few OUAT fics not posted here. You can find them at my Ao3 (http:///users/nothingeverlost/works)
