Once upon a time, there was a writer named Darkchilde. Now, Darkchilde loved to write about her favorite characters and couples, and she did so as OFTEN as possible. One of these couples she so loved was a pair of social misfits from Disney's "In a Heartbeat", Caitie Roth and Jamie Waite.
Since she loved them so much, she decided to write a story about them, a story that she named "Walk Me Home". However, she had no idea that when writing this story, she would be starting off a story arc that would spawn nearly a dozen stories and create characters that have shown up, not only in her work, but in other writer's stories as well.
Okay, I'm going to stop referring to myself in the third person now. I promise. Anyway, when I first started this amazingly long epic of a story arc, I fully intended to maybe write a sequel or two. I didn't have a SINGLE plan to expand it beyond that. But...the muse grabbed a hold of me, and I found myself writing more and more stories, expanding more and more on the characters I had created and "borrowed" from the TV show.
In the pages of these stories, I created the Waite family, which consist of some of the characters I'm most proud of: Genevieve, Jamie's wacky but loving mother, who lends her ear to all of her children's problems; Jazz and Crimson, the oldest two of Jamie's four younger sisters, who, in their radically different ways, help keep both Jamie and Caitie grounded, and Molly and most especially Sami, the youngest of the two, who add aspects of innocence and humor to the story, I like to think. I espically enjoy writing about the bound between Sami and Jamie, because it's one of the deeper and realistic ones I've ever managed to create.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy my stories. I know I enjoy writing the.
Walk Beside Me (more commonly know as Caitie's Home Life SUCKS!) consists of, thus far 9 stories: Walk Me Home, Cold Morning, Family Ties, Much Ado About Nothing, For All This We Give Thanks, Where Are You Christmas, Broken, Readjustments and Coming Home, along with one outtake--Scribbles.
So, anyway, enjoy reading, and VIVA LA REVOLUTION!
