I'm a middle-aged, professional writer of non-fiction and would-be professional writer of fiction who also writes Harry Potter fanfiction just for fun.

I’m a proud member of the Harry Potter Old Lady Smut Brigade, which means I’m most interested in the older female characters in the Harry Potter saga, particularly Minerva McGonagall.

If I had received my Hogwarts letter back in nineteen-mumble-mumble, I would most likely have been sorted into Ravenclaw, or so everyone tells me, probably because I’m a geeky data-freak (my Real Life™ requires me to read piles of medical journal articles.) I, however, think I’d feel right at home in Hufflepuff too, so I consider myself a Ravenpuff.

The fics I write may contain adult themes, and I will always warn for non-con, graphic violence, bestiality, incest, or underage sex. I don't warn for homosexual relationships or sex, or for threesomes/moresomes, unless they contain one of the aforementioned elements.

I have a blog: http://squibstress.wordpress.com/.

I'm also on LiveJournal and Twitter (@Squibstress).

I maintain a master list of (mostly Minerva-centric) recs at Diigo.

Fishy

Not my cuppa but beautifully written none the less. The bit about Anelia being in Minerva's orbit, at all times, was very familiar to me, and brilliant, as is per usual for your work.You always leave me in awe ... so you're consistent as well.

Response from Squibstress (Author of Heart's Desire)

Thanks for reading it.I'm glad if you got some enjoyment out of it, even if it's not your usual fare.

Wow... I am on my hp reading and had to review. Very sensitively written! Am a Christian. And know how remote some people regard someone who is the Abba Father. May I know if Amelia bones was killed by Deaters after selling her home? 

Response from Squibstress (Author of Heart's Desire)

Thanks!Yes, in this story, Amelia was killed by Death-Eaters (or by Voldemort himself, as suggested in canon.)Thanks for reading.
