Fang's Fawnhide bio
 Author has written 8 stories for Harry Potter, and Sherlock. "Why did I write? what sin to me unknown Dipp'd me in ink, my parents', or my own?" It's a joy to come here and share my love of writing, reading, and various fandoms. I've met some amazing and talented people from all over the world, and have (I hope) grown as a writer myself through this association. I enjoy reading and writing fan fiction because it gives me an opportunity to linger longer in worlds created by others, worlds I've come to love, and I hope I do the creators of those worlds honor in my retelling. My gen fiction focuses on one-shot character studies and explorations, and multi-chapter suppositional AUs (i.e. how would the characters and overall story change from the canon if one event or situation were changed?). When it comes to reading fan fiction, I prefer stories that are canon, canon-compliant, or, if AUs, are true to the spirit of the canon and the characters I have come to love. These are the sorts of stories I try to write myself, and this is why I only write for fandoms for which I have a deep love and some understanding. I got my moniker, Fang's Fawn, from a very minor character in a VERY lovely book called Bridge of Birds by Barry Hughart. If you haven't read it, do! |

The Empty Home by chai4anne reviews
Sherlock would always be haunted by memories of one particular case. The first body, its once-so-familiar features blurred by the passing of time and death, moved him more than he would ever have expected. But the worst was the skeleton he uncovered later, bits of hair and clothes still clinging to it—which had no effect on him whatever, until he looked up and saw John's face.

The Lessons of Life and How It's Rarely Fair by Cumberbatch Critter reviews
"John had initially stiffened at Sherlock's embrace, but even before a single second had gone by, he'd buried his face against Sherlock's chest and broke down sobbing. Sherlock pressed his lips into a thin line and tightened his hold on John, pulling him impossibly closer." Major character death, set shortly after His Last Vow. T for angst.

And A Doctor by StillWaters1 reviews
It was only when people actually saw John working as a physician that they began to understand: that it wasn't just about bullets and IEDs and trauma care under fire. That "doctor" actually covered a pretty wide field. And that John was bloody good at covering ground. 5 times Dr. Watson treated others and 1 time he treated himself.

Codicil reviews
This is a short, sort of companion piece to my story, "An Innocent Man." I strongly suggest you read that first. It's a canon-compliant one-shot scene that takes place between "The Hounds of Baskerville" and "The Reichenbach Fall." Further explanation inside. Not slash.
