Author & Artist

(I'm taking a break from Presumably Dead Arm, but it is not abandoned! Also not abandoned: Not Ready to Make Nice and I Can Show You Lies - I'll get around to everything eventually <3)

 

Hey there!

I'm a painter, theatre professional, and hopeful playwright. Writing is mainly something I do for fun, and most of the time it doesn't see the light of day, but I’m actively trying to fix that!

I'm grateful to have BTVS and Spuffy as an outlet and that people are gracious enough to give my words weight. Thanks for going on these adventures with me <3

Summary: Suddenly thrust back into her body after five long months, Buffy has no memory of her life apart from a few things: her name, her death, and a man, speaking sweet words before a battle.

Summary: Summer was proving to be a bit of a drag. At least, that's what Buffy thought until a spell gone wrong transformed her into her worst nightmare. The crazy thing was, apart from the pointy teeth, forehead bumpies, and stomach churning diet, that nightmare was turning out to feel a whole lot more like her first taste of freedom.
