Update July 9th 2020: I know I've been MIA for months on end, and I'm so very sorry about it. I've had a lot going on before, and then the covid madness came to top things off... but life goes on, and here I am, back on track again, hopefully updating stories much more often and regularly. I admit I haven't done much writing in these past few months, or I would have posted my writing...my two memory loss companion stories are a bit on hold now, but at least I haven't started posting them so I'll just wait until I've had them pegged down really well before I post anything, so that you don't have to wait such a long time.

Right now I am only working on my Harry Potter fifty shades story, there's a new chapter available and I'm working on the following 3 chapters :) I'll try posting them soon, but in any case, it won't be months before I update, that's for sure!

Once again, I'm extremely sorry for keeping you waiting for so long! I hope that hasn't put you off of this story so please do read and review! Thanks and all the best to you!

Update October 22nd 2019: Once again I got sidetracked and haven't posted anything in like...ages (well, about 9 weeks actually, but still). Sorry about that. It's not like I haven't written anything, just haven't managed to finish any of the new stories in a satisfactory way, but I do promise that by Halloween I'll either post the entire companion story for Two for two, or, at the very least, I'll post one chapter of it (but it's basically done, just a couple of touches left). Not sure which one of the other stories I'm working on I'll start posting next, especially as I have two more that I've started writing. They're not exactly companion stories, but they're based on the same idea, which is memory loss. In one of them it's Hermione who loses her memory, and Draco takes full advantage of it in typical Slytherin style, and in the second story it's him who has the memory loss - or rather, he fakes it, again, for his own more or less nefarious purposes :)) But the next one I'll start publishing (other than the Two for Two second story) will probably be the dark one I told you about in my last update, since it is Halloween time and it's the one I've done most writing for.

Anyways, sorry again for not publishing anything new for these past couple of month and I promise I'll write and publish more often from now on!

Update July 24th 2019: Unfortunately a lot has been happening in my life lately and I've been pretty busy, most of the time too busy to write but you know what they say: if you love something you make time for it; if not, you find an excuse. Well, I love writing, so I haven't given it up completely, not by far!

In fact, I am working on three Harry Potter stories. One is a birthday present for my sister - and I'll probably publish it around the 24th of August (that's her birthday) and it is a romance story about Lucius Malfoy (her favorite character) and an OC. The next story is connected to the first, following the same plot/timeline, only it is about my favorite couple, Dramione. And the last story is not connected to the first two but it is, again, a Dramione romance story - this one is going to be definitely M rated because I've been feeling pretty dark at times and that's bound to be reflected in my writing. The story is basically going to be about a very aggressive/possessive Draco, and a pretty messed up/abusive relationship, because I feel like I've been writing only "light" stories, and I want to give something else (something darker) a try for a change :P Not sure it's going to turn out as I want it, because my nature is "light", but I guess we'll see ;)

Anyways, look forward to those stories and sorry if it'll take me ages to post/update them, like I said, it's hard to get writing done these days. Good things come to those who wait though, right?

Best regards to everyone!

Hi everyone!

My name is Hermina, I'm from Romania, and I love reading and writing :)

My favorite story of all times is Harry Potter (HP) - I've read and re-read the books several times, and I've watched and re-watched the movies countless times. I've also read a lot of HP fanfiction, and eventually decided to write my own. I have hundreds of ideas for stories, but usually I'm content with just thinking about this plot or that, instead of putting it on paper (well, that's a manner of speaking, as now I don't actually write the stories, I type them on a computer/laptop).

While imagining stories is nice, and reading already written stories is also great, what's truly special is to write stories and to find out people actually like them. I think writers like J.K. Rowling (and many many others) have made me happier than anyone else - well, there's family and friends, of course, but the point is, I know how much happiness a writer can bring into someone's life, and I want to do that for other people as well. Which is why I'll try to write down and publish as many of my story ideas as possible.

Where novels are concerned, besides HP, I also love the Twilight series and The Host by Stephenie Meyer, the Lord of the Rings trilogy by J.R.R. Tolkien, A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R.R. Martin (Game Of Thrones really, I know the TV series better than the books), the Mortal Instruments trilogy (first three books) by Cassandra Clare, The Fever and The Highlander series by Karen Marie Moning, Pride and Prejudice and Emma by Jane Austen, Blood and Chocolate by Annette Curtis Klause, The Secret Circle by L.J. Smith, The Divergent series by Veronica Roth, The Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead, Blue Bloods by Melissa de la Cruz, 50 Shades trilogy by E.L. James, The Morganville Vampires by Rachel Caine, The Plantagenet and Tudor series by Philippa Gregory, etc. (I could go on forever, as I've read about 450 novels, and I'm sure that there isn't one Regency romance out there that I wouldn't like :D).

Of course, I don't think I could write fanfiction for ALL those novels - HP is a must (Hermione/Ron or Hermione/Draco), I might also try Twilight fanfiction (Bella/Edward), Lord of the Rings (Aragorn/Arwen), The Host (Wanda/Ian, maybe Melanie/Jared too), and possibly The Fever & Highlander series by Karen Marie Moning (Mac & Barrons).

I also love anime and manga, but if often happens that some stories don't end the way I would have wanted, or there isn't enough romance, or one of the characters I love dies, etc., so that I feel the need to come up with an alternate version that better serves my expectations. I can't always put those alternate versions into a well written story, but I like to try.

When I read fanfiction, I don't really like it when I see characters who are very OOC because it makes them feel like other people altogether and that takes more than half the fun in reading the stories - so I try to keep characters as close to their original personality as I can (only changing a little detail here and there if it's required for the plot of the story).

My favorite anime are: Fairy Tail, Bleach, Saiunkoku Monogatari, Fate/Stay Night (especially the Unlimited Blade Works version), Vampire Knight, Toradora, D.Gray-man, Zero no Tsukaima, Kaichou wa Maid Sama, Busou Renkin, Hakushaku to Yousei, Hanasakeru Seishounen, Hatenkou Yuugi, Shakugan no Shana, Kaze no Stigma, Slayers, Ayashi no Ceres, Pandora Hearts, Spice and Wolf, The Good Witch of the West, Special A, Ouran Koukou Host Club, Allison & Lillia, Needless, Itazura na Kiss, Kaleido Star, Death Note, Inukami, Devils' line, Inu x Boku, etc.

As for manga, I love Hot Gimmick, Yokujou Climax, Hadashi de Bara wo Fume, Absolute Witch, Hapi Mari, Lovenista, Midnight Secretary, The One, Kiss yori mo Hayaku, Romantic Beauty, Yuuwaku no Bansan, Gokko, Mask: Kamen no Jouji, Atashi wa Sore wo Gaman Dekinai, Venus ni Arazu, Tonari no Koakuma Boy, Ojousama no Untenshu, Kiken Mania, Oyayubi Hime, etc.

Some of my favorite anime/manga pairings are:

Fairy Tail: Natsu/Lucy; Erza/Jellal; Gray/Juvia; Gajeel/Levy

Bleach: Ichigo/Rukia (though I admit I love Byakuya a lot, so sometimes I fantasize about a Byakuya/Rukia pairing)

Saiunkoku Monogatari: Shuurei/Ryuuki (well, actually all the guys in Saiunkoku are incredibly HOT so I guess I fantasize about a pairing between Shuurei and a lot of other guys, like Seiran, Ryuuren, Ensei, Seiga, etc.)

Fate/Stay Night (Unlimited Blade Works): Rin/Shirou (or the Archer version of Shirou :D)

Vampire Knight: Yuuki/Zero, Yuuki/Kaname (the whole love triangle between Zero, Yuuki and Kaname is really intense and I kind of toy with the idea of Yuuki and Kaname too, but if I had to choose out of the two, I'd definitely pick Zero)

D.Gray-man: Lenalee/Kanda or Lenalee/Lavi, and even Lenalee/Allen (the 14th) or Lenalee/Tyki Mikk.

And since we're on the pairing topic, when it comes to HP, I'm usually quite content with the canon Hermione/Ron pair, but for the past couple of years I've been fascinated with the Hermione/Draco pairing :D And I've read a lot of wonderful Dramione fanfics, which made me want to write some of my own.

I hope to write stories about all my favorite anime eventually, but I'll try writing fanfiction for the less popular anime first, because they don't have that many stories written about them to begin with, and I'll try to work my way up to the most popular ones, if I don't get otherwise distracted which, unfortunately, is very likely :P Harry Potter stories might take precedence over anime stories, but I guess we'll see.

While I think books beat movies about 95% of the time, I also have some favorite movies/animations and TV series that I'm quite fond of:

Animations: Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, Frozen, Anastasia, Flight of Dragons.

Animated series: X-Men, The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest.

Movies: The 5th Element, The Island, The Breakfast Club, Leap Year, Robin Hood Prince of Thieves, Armageddon, Antitrust, Driven, Some Kind of Wonderful, 10 things I hate about you, The Mask of Zorro, Titanic, Flatliners, Contact, Dirty Dancing, Star Wars (the original three movies), Ladyhawke, etc.

TV Series: The X-Files, Lost, One Tree Hill, The Tudors, Reign, Quantico, Borgia, Downton Abbey, Game of Thrones, Gossip Girl, Rebelde, The Lost World, The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, True Blood, Versailles, A Discovery of Witches.

I might write fanfiction about these movies/animations/series as well at some point :)

I welcome all reviews, comments and constructive criticism - please keep in mind that English is not my first language, so although I do my best, I'm sure some mistakes are bound to appear sooner or later, please don't be too harsh with that.

I also take requests for stories - though being an independent type of person, it only works when the requests are general ideas, not very specific ones, as I need to have creative freedom to write the story the way I feel is right. But I only accept requests on stories that I'm very familiar with, and only with the pairing that I support, because if I am to write something, I want to be able to enjoy writing it, you know? Seeing as I've listed my favorite stories above, and my favorite pairings, I'm sure you can tell what I'm willing and not willing to write. Also, there's no hurrying the creative process, so very strict (impossible) deadlines are a deal breaker. In any case, if you do have a request, just PM me, and worst case scenario I'll politely decline, no harm done, but most likely I'll accept and hopefully you'll be happy withe the resulting story :)

That being said, thank you for your time and enjoy reading my stories!

All the best to you,

Hermina
