I'm way too old to be visiting sites like this (dare I admit to forty-something!) but my love of all things Severus Snape/Alan Rickman keep me addicted! Poor health keeps me from working and at home all day and gives me too many excuses to read/write fan fiction in an attempt to keep me sane. I have two lovely sons, and an even lovelier hubby, to try and keep me on the 'straight and narrow'. And, now, they're aided in that task by the more recent addition to our family of two beautiful black, male, kittens - Merlin and Mesmer!  (I wanted to call them both Alan Rickman-related names, so, naturally, one was very nearly 'Severus'... Unfortunately, my family drew the line at that particular wizard so I had to be a bit more subtle - hence Mesmer [as in Franz Anton for those not familiar with the AR film, 'Mesmer']; the name also happens to be short for mesmerising!) ;-) 
 
I have a few stories (and poems) posted at Occlumency, under the same pen name as here, and have gradually been expanding on my repertoire both here and there over the last two or three years.  Despite claiming to be in 'fanfic retirement' of recent times, I now find myself with newer additions on Ashwinder, Fanfiction.net and Granger Enchanted where I go by the names of Sevvy253 or Sevvysgirl/Sevvysgirl253.  However, this site retains the most complete listing of all my work to date. 

I also have an account on DeviantArt - http://sevvysgirl.deviantart.com/
where I am gradually starting to display some of my artwork 'attempts'! :-)

And - finally - I'm being totally shameless in promoting my own new shop on Etsy!  Here is the link: http://www.etsy.com/shop/sevvy253?ref=si_shop

I'm only just starting up, so stock is limited at the moment, but I'm hoping I will go on to bigger (and better) things.  From little acorns, and all that ...  Please feel free to pop by from time to time to see what changes may be in store (no pun intended!)

Such a lovely telling of how they came to be.  I love it!Beth

Response from Sevvy (Author of The Best Kept Secret)

Thank you for your kind review - it means SO very much to me.  I like to use poetry to 'tell a story' because it can be so succinct. (Or maybe it's just because I'm a lazy writer & can't be bothered with anything longer, I'm never sure!) Thanks again :-)

That was truly beautiful.

You have a lovely way with words, Sevvy. I love the way you have twisted the usual way we see Severus as a dark creature who is pulled away from the dark by some female or other. Here you have him guiding her to the light. This is lush and sensual and tender and uplifting, yet written with a hint of melancholy that makes the sweet poignant, but not sickly. You know I'm going to demand more..... I'm so envious of this skill.

Response from Sevvy (Author of The Best Kept Secret)

That's a lovely review,

Response from Sevvy (Author of The Best Kept Secret)

- thank you; you know this wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you & your encouragement always means SO much :-)As for demanding more ... ! Well (as you know), I'm always open to a bit of bribery (wine, chocs, biscuits, AR/Snape in person - that sort of thing) ;-)

I don't think I need to say anything more than that I don't care much for poetry, and I loved this.

Response from Sevvy (Author of The Best Kept Secret)

Thank you for taking the time to review.  That is a compliment indeed :-)

You know how it goes against my nature to praise an SS/HG. But this was good! Very, very good! Glad to have you back among us, sweetie.

Response from Sevvy (Author of The Best Kept Secret)

Awww ... thanks dear Morgaine - it's lovely of you to review when you're not keen on this pairing; I really appreciate it! I'm not sure about 'being back' exactly - I suspect this is rather more of a 'one off' but you never know! Great to hear from you, as always :-)
