Settees-under-siegehide bio
 Author has written 27 stories for Downton Abbey, and Freezing. Hey guys! Thanks for dropping by, much appreciated. So a little bit about my FF... Love Downton Abbey and ship Robert and Cora (Cobert)! They are the carriers of the show for me. I've made a few Cobert videos over the years and have another one in pre-production which I hope to complete soon. Here is the link to my videos: For all of you McGonnevilles fans out there, I've also now uploaded the Freezing episodes to YouTube as complete episodes rather than in parts, including the much sought-after episode 3! Just for the record, I am from New Zealand but I travel a lot so my flag could be elsewhere. Current Projects: I have a major project now in the works called Darkness and Daylight. It isn't like any other story on here so feedback on this AU I have created is always appreciated :) I co-wrote the first ever "Freezing" fanfiction story called "Chance Encounter" with Jenny-Gibbs-forever . Hugh Bonneville and Elizabeth McGovern also play a married couple in this show as well as DA coincidently. Here is the link to our story: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/9269683/1/Chance-Encounter I am now writing part 2 of "Chance Encounter" after a long absence from the story but it is now under the title "Stay Alive" as the first part was published on the account of my former co-author. Here is the link to my continued story: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11786014/1/Stay-Alive I have started a fic "The Marriage Exam" which is inspired by both the show and my trips to Highclere Castle (Downton) in 2013. Most recently I've started a fic, "Old Wounds", which explores how Robert and Cora's relationship began to falter during the war. Note: I am not currently updating my stories unless I can find the time, which seems to have completely abandoned me these last few months. But I'm shipping Cobert as much as ever and if anyone wants a beta, I'll still lend a hand to anyone who wants a beta. Two of my fics were nominated for the June 2013 Highclere Awards. I am very honoured by this and didn't expect it. Thank you so much for reading my fics and for nominating them and giving me your vote of confidence in doing so. It means the world to me! "Darkness & Daylight" was nominated for the AU category. "Forging Through Time" was nominated for the Robert/Cora characterization category.I was nominated in the Cobert overall author category for the January 2014 awards. Again, thank you so much for your continued belief in my stories and writing! | |||||||
