Author has written 5 stories for Becoming Jane, Twilight, Elementary, and Thor.

Thank you to everyone who is reading and reviewing!

Mortar & Stone is an experiment in writing on the fly. On the recommendation of Stephen King in On Writing: no plot outlines, just writing for pure enjoyment and seeing where it takes me. I realise it may be a lot rawer than usual because of this, but as I said, it's an experiment :)

Burning Shade is currently on hiatus.

A Note for the Faint Hearted is a work in progress, and I have stopped posting until I complete it. It's at over 100,000 words now and I'm determined to finish it as my first, original, completed work!


A little about myself:

- I have a very shameful addiction to several things that are far too inappropriate for a 30 year old, married woman with a child: James McAvoy, Elementary, Period dramas, and Tom Hiddleston (more recently).
- Love cooking, reading, writing, acting, watching movies and singing.
- Have a pathetic love for reviews and think it may be the sole reason I put my work here, selfish being that I am :)
- Support "To Write Love on Her Arms": its a fantastic cause.
- Feel free to email your love to beckthter@
