Author has written 8 stories for Fruits Basket, Newsies, Fantastic 4, Chronicles of Narnia, Bonanza, and Hey Arnold.

Hey everyone! I'm Tangerine53 and thanks for being interested enough in my writing to view my profile. Just in case you're curious, my penname is a combination of one of my favorite Led Zeppelin songs (which also alludes to the fact that I have red hair) and the year that Disney's Peter Pan made its theatrical debut. It's been so hard for me to either find the time or the inspiration to write these days, so I'm sorry if I don't update as often as I should. Here are a few fun facts about me:

My favorite word is "home."

I love the color of my hair.

I believe in Disney magic.

I'm a cat person.

I consider scarves the best way to accessorize.

My happy place is the Ponderosa.

I love the smells of lavender, cloves, and fresh ink.

I believe in the healing power of the three P's: peanut butter, pumpkin spice, and paperbacks.

I could eat pizza every day of the week.

My favorite season is autumn.

I'm sorry my profile is so bare, but my stories do a much better job of reflecting who I am than any profile ever could. Don't forget to leave a review for the stories you read! I welcome any and all feedback with open arms; in fact, I determine how my stories are doing based on the number of reviews I get, so if you're enjoying a story please let me know. I promise I'll update sooner if I know it's being read, gathering readers, and being enjoyed.
