About me:

 

My writing history is nonfiction, academic writing, and plays. This'll be my first real attempt at fiction, and I hope it goes well. There won't be any slash, but I don't have any other strict guidelines at this point.

I'm currently pursuing my doctorate in psychology, and have a graduate degree in social work, which means my work naturally gravitates toward those fields. I've always thought that Harry Potter has depth of emotion that I'd like to tackle in my own fiction.

I've written a few articles for the Huff Post about mental health and also write about it extensively on my blog. 

 

Thanks for reading, and I appreciate reviews and constructive criticism!

One night the Veil turned in on itself and spit out two children. Once it is confirmed that the two children are Severus Snape and Siruis Black...and that both children, for some reason refuse to go with anyone other than Harry Potter... things get interesting. Will these two small boys, with the memories of adults, be able to fit in with the already growing family of Harry and Ginny Potter, or will it turn everything inside out?

    I like this positive interaction between Sev and Sirius. And I'm also really interested in your Dumbledore plot. Really nice work!

    Author's Response: Thank you! And Dumbledore will soon reenter the picture;)

Upon discovering his self destructive habits, Dumbledore sends a reluctant Harry to Snape's office. Angst ahoy... don't like, don't read. Warnings: Self harm, tired plot lines, cliche angst, and language. Suggestions for future chapters always welcome.

    This fic has sucked me in, and I look forward to your next update!

What happens when Harry really is as naughty as Snape thinks he is? Why is Harry acting this way and what will the staff do about it? In particular, what will Harry do when he finds out all of his detentions are now being assigned solely to Professor Snape? In response to the ‘Bad Harry’ challenge.

    Great start, I can't wait to see what's happens!

As the title says, another quiet day (or afternoon) in the life of Severus and young Harry.

    This was really cute. I'd love to see a follow up! :)

    Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you liked it! I'm not planning a sequel right now, but maybe one day.

Little Harry was rescued from the Dursleys by his Daddy, but not all of their lessons are easily forgotten. Entry in the 2012 Prompt Fest. Prompts: It slipped from his grasp and shattered, Fight or flight.

    Great job! This was so sweet. :)

    Author's Response: Thank you so much!

Sequel to 'Not My Son'. The years have passed and Harry is ready to go off to school...but where is he going? How does Severus affect his decision as to which school to attend? And what is this about a letter from James Potter? Only warning is for one swear word and implied slash/Mpreg...if you blink, you'll miss it.
