This was my assigned story for xmmficathon. The concept of the Sylvia Plath poem and Phoenix had been tied together in my head since I first read the poem and the comic around the same time, back in high school, 1992, so it was quite a relief to finally sort it all out in a story. Even if it did make me cry hysterically ( Read more... )

This was a pinch hit, in a pairing I'd never really thought about before, let alone written. Even so, once I had thought about what Rogue might do with her post-X3 future, the whole fic fell into place, and I really loved it.

This year, I wrote in two fandoms for the first time: Malory Towers and Young Avengers.
Malory Towers broke my brain for a while, as I tried to work out an angle for the story, but once I'd decided to write gen/femslash (read as you please, just like the actual books), everything flowed easily. st_aurafina should be awarded some kind of medal for her calming ( Read more... )

st_aurafina and I have been in a bit of a creative slump, writing-wise, though we did make some great art-quilts, and planned a project for 2007. To get the writing mojo working in time for yuletide, we had a drabble-a-thon over the last few days. We selected 20 words from an old encyclopedia (via the 10th-word-on-the-page technique), and 20 characters we find ( Read more... )

Now that hp_lovebirds, a Harry Potter femslash exchange, has posted its masterlist, I can reveal that I wrote this fic, Sanctuary, as a pinch hit. I'm reposting here in my quest to have all my fic in one place. Also in my quest for more Malory Towers-style Hogwarts stories, with girls crushing on each other. Since Millicent Bulstrode is in this fic, the ( Read more... )

It's fun to be someone else for a while: in the recent HP ficathon, reversathon, I became Magenta Mucklerooney (magentam), the Anti-Dementor.

The request that I received was:
Request: A gen story that shows Snape learning to respect Neville. Setting - post-HBP or post-war. The respect issue can be as major or unimportant as you like to the story as a whole. I just ( Read more... )
