Howdy from Texas! 

I'm rather fond of grammar and spelling and words in general & I'd make a living writing if I could.

I've been writing for my own entertainment since high school (a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away.) Been working on a series for a long time but haven't given enough effort to finding an agent.    I'm getting better at short stories; writing the one-shots helped. I've also discovered that I can't edit myself too much or I just keep changing things & not always for the better. I have to work on letting things be; sometimes the way the words flow right at the start works so much better than any conscious editing.

Just discovered "Castle". Love Nathan Fillion; you gotta watch "Dr. Horrible" if you haven't yet.  Also like "Chuck" & "24". When I have the time, I read a lot of SciFi/Fantasy with a few mystery/thrillers thrown in.  Jim Butcher, Laurell K. Hamilton, CJ Cherryh, Jonathan Kellerman, Sue Grafton, Janet Evanovich, Weiss & Hickman, Robert Jordan, Melanie Rawn.  Several dozen others.

I'm on MySpace & Twitter (for some reason) as Renate651, but this is the only place I've posted a story.

There was a rustle, a bang, a crunch of leaves. They were noises that made John go outside with a gun. What he didn't think about was what was outside was trying to get in to his two sleeping boys.

Summary:

This is a collection of drabbles I've written for the E/O Drabble challenge on FF.net.  Each week we're supplied with a word and sometimes a specific challenge.  Each chapter will be a different drabble.  Drabbles are 100 words each according to MS word and because of my OCDness I have actually hand counted quite a few of them. :)

Any drabble containing spoilers will be labeled.

Extra points to anyone who understands where I got my title for the collection. :)

Summary: Written for Merisha's birthday.  Set Season 4. A troll, demon blood, and campfires. Both boys take a beating, because Merisha asked.  And also because nothing good ever happens in woods and forests. Rated T for macho language.

Summary:

Dean centric Drabbles. I play in a drabble challenge over on FF.Net and I thought I'd bring them over here.  Some are funny, some a bit more serious. Hope you enjoy.

Enkidu and OnyxMoonBeam on FF.Net supply a word each week and the players create a drabble including the word.

Thanks to Kripke for the wonderful material to play with, he owns the boys I own my fantasies!

Summary: Past Featured Story

Sam and Dean and a werewolf. Simple? Not when Dean has internal struggles that, if he wins, will be the last loss he will ever face. And then there’s Sam, having to play Dean through no fault of his own. Or is it?

No season five spoilers that I'm aware of.

Rated T for the odd word, some suggestive suggestions of suggestiveness and some messy fights.

For my sister. Cos she ‘gets’ me.
