What fic are you most proud of? Umm....I'm not really a fan of the writing I've posted here. I know I can write better; I have written better, but it isn't fanfiction and it's altogether too personal for me to feel comfortable sharing. But if I have to choose then Love Is, because I was genuinely proud of that one. :) One day I will write more fanfiction, and it'll be a bit better. I hope.

JBean210

Name: John. My writing name above...

Age: 51

Location: Wichita, KS

Occupation: Systems analyst.

Why are you here? May I have some reviews, please?

What fic are you most proud of? My first one, Harry Potter and the Vault of Mystery, is an Y7 AU novel that has HRH planning to search for Voldemort's Horcruxes until You-Know-Who is unexpectedly killed by... NEVILLE LONGBOTTOM?? Harry doesn't believe it, but he goes back to Hogwarts with Ron and Hermione, to complete his education. Meanwhile, Ron becomes obsessed with a vault found in the depths of Gringotts Wizarding Bank, believing that figuring out a way to open it could make him rich.

Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4535243/1/Harry_Potter_and_the_Vault_of_Mystery

I also have two other fics, Being Gilderoy Lockhart, a story based on a challenge to "write yourself as Gilderoy Lockhart." I wake up one morning to find myself in Gilderoy Lockhart's bedroom, wearing his nightclothes and his face. I don't know who the woman is who's making me breakfast, and Professor Dumbledore is due on my doorstep any minute! This story is complete; I currently have the first two chapters online at FF.net.

Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4499794/1/Being_Gilderoy_Lockhart

My final fic is an in-progress story, Harry Potter and the Ultimate Showdown, where HRH find themselves in the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny. Only one will survive, I wonder who it will be? Sounds familiar to most HP fans, doesn't it? I plan on seven chapters for this story; the first chapter features HRH vs. Popeye, Bluto, Wimpy and Olive Oyl.

Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4538449/1/Harry_Potter_and_the_Ultimate_Showdown

Thanks to all who decide to review! I will reciprocate (i.e. I'll review your stories, too)!
