twenty-something who indulges in Draco/Ginny fan-fiction while juggling a full time job and a full time school schedule. I love red wine and cooking good food...especially Italian. I love reading the stories posted on this site and I hope to one day write one of my own.

I am so happy they are together and ware happy! I'm also happy Ginny has found herself as a designer. She has alway struck me as the creative type.

A Tale of Two Matchmakers by Kerichi    (Reviews - 524)

Romance for three couples when Blaise and Luna use Shakespearean styled matchmaking to hook up Ginny and Draco. There's Much Ado about...something!

Nominated for a Quicksilver Quill award for Best Romance- Non Canon on Mugglenet

* Written before the HBP, this tale presents an alternate sixth year in which Dumbledore lives, Draco is more than a foil to Harry, and Blaise Zabini is a girl. I hope readers who ship Draco/Ginny will enjoy the story which includes dancing with faeries, Celtic and Norse mythology, school holidays in London and Spain, and loads of fantasy and romance. "Is this a kissing book?" (to quote the Princess Bride) Yes, it is.*

This is such a refreshing take on the Ginny/Draco dynamic, especially how their parents react to the whole coupling. Great writing, can't wait to read the rest of the story.

I'm very glad Draco's last name doesn't begin with P and end with a R. At first some of Ginny's dialogue seemed a little young for me but then I remembered the poor girl was only 17! You should really do a follow up to this story to see how thier new relationship blossoms.

The Lost Room by Sue Bridehead    (Reviews - 10)

Under by tudorrose1533    (Reviews - 50)

Award-winning fic from the D/G Fic Exchange on LJ. "His body lies cold and still beside her; his mouth is open, an O, and his hair is drying, feathery, in wisps, over his closed eyes. That fair skin; that nearly white hair. Dead, he looks so young...."

The dark and tragic story of a journey Under...based on the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice.

The Proper Usage of a Storage Shed by Mourning Broken Angel    (Reviews - 105)

I really like this version of everyone you have painted for us. To be honest I know DH is said and done but I was never happy with how JK brought those two together...I always felt that Gin and Harry should have a brother/sister relationship like you've created.

Author's Response: Thank you! To be honest, I\'m a pretty avid Harry/Ginny supporter, but I think I\'d get stoned for that here, so I had to put that aside :)

Hmmm....you put Draco in a really hard place and I find it kind of hard to beleive that this wasn't brought up sooner. I'm sure Ginny has her reasons but serioulsy, after having a couple kids she didn't feel it was necessary for her oldest to know his half-siblings? Sorry I had to vent, if I were Draco I'm not sure I would have extended the olive branch so quickly. It is a heck of a lot to take in.

Author's Response: Yeah, well, call me a hopeless romantic :) I\'m not a very realistic writer, and I know that, so I content myself with being grammatically correct and leave it at that :D Thanks for your input.

Author's Response: Ooh, that\'s a good way to put it: \'I am thankful you update\' :D Quite honestly, there probably won\'t be another one for a while, because I have a show coming up here soon and it\'s crunch time. I\'ll do my best, though :D
