Author has written 23 stories for Discworld, Merlin, Doctor Who, Smallville, and Harry Potter.

Hello, how are you? Good? Well that's nice to know.

Now a warning about me, I tend to write well in one-shots, but the second you start making deadlines my creativity jumps ship. This is why I have dozens of short one shots on my computer, but most haven't been put up yet and whenever I do put a few up I seem to put up quite a few . . . and then disappear for weeks.

If you're reading this because of my Discworld stuff then I am really sorry about how long my "Something" series is taking, but as I said above, I had to change my focus, so I am truly sorry, but the rest should be up in the next few weeks. (She said several months ago . . . oops)

If you're reading this because of my Merlin stuff . . . then I don't know what to say as I don't really have to apologise to you (yet). I love most of the characters in Merlin, with only a few exceptions:
-Uther (Because he's a psychopath)
-Lancelot (Because he's a needy wimp)
-Modred (Because he is creepy and looks [creepily] like my little brother which makes thinking of him as evil uncomfortable, especially as so far he hasn't gone overboard with the evil, but I know he will!)
As you may be able to tell - I don't have much patience for people, I blame my little brother for this.

I think that Rory (from Dr Who) and Sir Leon (from Merlin) should meet and compare notes, because seriously is there any other character who has died (or almost died) as many times as this pair (most only manage it the once.)

BEWARE

SPOILERS

Times Rory has died so far;
-Was killed in the episode "Amy's Choice", during the dream
-Was killed by Restac the Reptillian Earthling in "The Hungry Earth, Cold Blood" and then was wiped from existence by the crack in time
-Canton pretended to kill him in "Day of the Moon"
-Rory is whacked into the sea and drowns in "The Black Spot"
-Amy finds a Rory Skeleton in the episode "The Doctor's Wife"

Times Sir Leon has almost died;
-Was in the force that went up against Kilgarrah
-Fought against Morganna's skeleton warriors
-Was in a patrol that was slaughtered by Cenred's men but was saved by the druids
-Was in another patrol found by Cenred's immortal army and having decided that discretion is the greater part of valour, ran for it.

A bit more about me.
I'm a teenage girl who at this time is taking a year out before going to Uni. Which is all kinds of scary.
I live in the Highlands of Scotland and yes it's gorgeous and yes Nessie is as real as the Haggis monster (which young men of Scotland hunt as a way of proving themselves to their beloveds, while wearing kilts and only saying "Och aye the noo").
If I write "jamp" instead of jumped, I'm sorry, it's a local colloquialism . . . and it makes much more sense.

No More Time For These Trousers by A.A. Pessimal reviews
In "Going Postal", there is the incidental detail that Tolliver Groat's appalling trousers were so dangerous they had to be safely disposed of. But who provided the bomb disposal squad? Read on...

Sensibility
A very AU piece where I wonder about why a previously sensible Morganna became extremely silly in Series 3, based in the gap between Series 3 and 4, please don't take it seriously. Complete for the moment but might get added to at some point.

Something Old reviews
The very late second half of my Something series based around the "Something Old, Something New, etc." wedding tradition. The main characters are Angua and Carrot and a canon, but never "on screen" character. Hope everyone likes it!

Poker and Physiogonomy
A very silly one-shot, basically it was born from wondering what Merlin's Grandmother was like and getting the word "Physiogonomy" as my word of the day. No slash, but a lot of me being silly.

The Owl and the Pussy Cat reviews
My version of "The Owl and the Pussy Cat" by Edward Lear, only with Merlin characters. NO SLASH! It's supposed to be funny, so I hope that comes across. I was feeling in a bit of a silly mood when I wrote it, so please tell me if I did OK.

Rory's Last Thoughts reviews
Massive spoilers for Episode 11 from the 17/09/2011, UK time. Please don't read if you haven't watched it yet. But if you have watched then it's a drabble on Rory's thoughts.

Mothers reviews
Based around the word materfamilias, these three drabbley things are supposed to show an aspect of the mothers of three of my favourite characters. Also includes Merlin, but I can only link two characters to a story!

Scrap Ninja Amy's Thoughts
Based on the most recent Dr Who 10/09/2011 Uk Time , laden with enough spoilers to send River Song insane. Do not read if you haven't seen the most recent Dr Who. Quite sad, so warnings for that.

Impugn reviews
A reveal fic and some reasoning about why Arthur finds it so difficult to see what's right in front of him. It's pretty much everyone so I haven't put a character filter on.
