I have loved the written word since watching my mother’s fingers trace the lines of a book, luxuriating in riveting tales and well-turned phrases. Many a night I read until dawn, a plastic flashlight hidden under the covers to light the pages as I raced the rising sun to finish my latest must-read.
Since joining the HP fandom, I've been privileged to receive more than 50 awards, including Best Author (Quill to Parchment Awards) and Best Classic Author (Most Potente Passions). Among others, my stories have won awards for Best Hurt/Comfort (Spoils of War, Morning Has Broken), Best Novel Length (Calling Card, Guard…Check…Mate), Best One Shot (A Beach in Ireland), Best WIP (Saving a Death Eater, The Summoning), Favorite Overall Story (Complexities), and Readers’ Choice (A Quest of Paladins).
Aside from a judicious polish for formatting and egregious typos, I don't plan on revising my early work. Those stories are the stepping stones of my writing journey. Please note some stories contain adult content. None is more graphic than equivalent scenes in the television shows True Blood or Game of Thrones, and age appropriate warnings are posted.
I no longer write fanfiction prolifically. Like many fanfic authors, my focus has shifted to original work. A member of the Romance Writers of America and the Southern California Writers Association, I write under my name: Lin Thornhill.
My original story Verisimilitude published in Thoroughly Modern Monsters (Story Spring Publishing, 2013) reached the top 100 fantasy anthologies and broke into the top 10 in the UK the first month of release. Ben and Christine’s story will continue in 2016.
Fixation, my latest short story, slated for publication in J. Aldis’ anthology Immanence, with a winter 2015-2016 release, is particularly exciting as it anchors the Messengers of Inari novel series I’ve been developing for the past year.

I think I missed something, because I'm still not sure why he was hiding, but it was a cute story anyways.
Lovely!I really liked Hermione's 'woodland glade' / intuition. ;)
Response from Bambu (Author of Inheritance)
I've always thought she'd be more subtle in any attempt to show her interest, especially if that interest has 'history' with her. Especially with Draco.Thanks for reading and leaving a review.

Wonderfully done. I love that Draco gets in a pheromone rage and has to fight off admirers to get to Hermione. And well done with her courtship piece. Very clever.
A Draco who is sexy and sweet? Sign me up. :) I love the contrast in this piece, of the primal urges that fuel their sexual encounter, followed by friendly conversation and mutual understanding of underlying feelings. You can tell from just this one scene that they will have an amazing time both in and out of the bedroom.
I remember this being one of the earlier Dramione pieces I had read! I still love it and think its sexy, even though I've moved on to Sevmione.
Response from Bambu (Author of Inheritance)
Really? How utterly marvelous. It's a fantastic compliment htat you remembered it well enough to read again. Thank you.I like both dynamics, SS/HG and DM/HG. They're different and each is challenging in its own way to write. Although in my heart of hearts, it's SS/HG!

holy wow, that was hot, hot, hot!! one of the best Draco-Veela stories i've read :)
Response from Bambu (Author of Inheritance)
Thank you so very much. Veela!Draco is one of my sooper sekrit fetishes. Regrettably there's very little of it to be found.

Just coming back for another taste....this is still a lovely story. Unfortunately, Firefox and TrendMicro won't let me go to 'winding_steps'....some folderol about malware. So I came here!
Wonderful story, thank you so much!
I don't think I've ever read this piece of yours. Sparks were flying as Draco came into his inheritance, but I'm glad to see that there was clearly interest on both sides prior to this.
Response from Bambu (Author of Inheritance)
Veela!Draco stories are a no longer super sekrit pleasure of mine; but there are so few, and so few well done. One day I decided to write my own.Thanks for enjoying it!
I love Veela stories. And I particularly enjoyed this one.
Response from Bambu (Author of Inheritance)
I do too! They're one of my favorite bits of crack, and there are so few of them. One day, I'd love to write one where Draco's veela nature pops out, and Lucius and Narcissa have a bitter fight over whose bloodline is tainted!Thanks for enjoying it.
Sounds like they were meant for each other. Who else would have known all that about Veelas? :)
Response from Bambu (Author of Inheritance)
I think so, too. And who else might have put their intentions out in the open like that ... even if he hadn't noticed until this particular encounter? Thanks for enjoying the story.
Nice and hot. =) Interesting to read Draco as a Veela.
Response from Bambu (Author of Inheritance)
Malfoys with Veela ancestry are probably my most favorite crack of all. I think the concept works in so many ways, especially the degree to which Lucius clings to his assumed superiority. You know, people in glass houses ....::hugs:: I'm delighted you enjoyed the piece, dearest Drox!
Mmmm. Maybe time to transfigure a blazer or a shawl.Her window display is almost like the bower bird, which hearkens back to your other bower story.
Response from Bambu (Author of Inheritance)
I'd totally forgotten about the bower bird, it's been so long since I've read that piece. I wrote this a long, long time ago, and I was just doing a little new year's cleaning, and realized I hadn't posted this story here. Thanks so much for reading it and commenting.
Of all your DM/HG pieces, this one was always a favorite. And it was pure pleasure to read it again. :)
Response from Bambu (Author of Inheritance)
How very kind of you to say that. The Malfoys as veelas is pretty much my crack!fic addiction, and I just had to toy with it here. Thank you!
I've always liked this one.
Response from Bambu (Author of Inheritance)
Thanks so much! I'm doing a little spring cleaning and realized I'd never posted this here.
