Hello. I am SiriusFan13. If you've ever been to fanfiction.net, you may know me there as well (same penname). The homepage I have listed is the link to my bio page on that site. I also post humor fics on fanfiction.net under the penname "dumbledoresdelight" with my dear friend, FrostPhoenix.
I thought I'd try my hand at posting some of my original fictions and poetry, now, so this is the result. I write both prose and poetry, although I haven't written much poetry in a long time. Some of the stuff I'm posting is kind of old, but I'd love reviews on it, so I know what I need to fix. (I've never had anyone read my original fiction this way before either... except maybe in school, so reviews are really important to me!)
I have a passion for twists and cliffhangers, and especially surprise endings (one of my favorite authors is O. Henry, who is known for his endings).
Shameless plugging:
PLEASE read my friends' stuff. It's good or I wouldn't suggest it. And they'd LOVE some R&R... anyway, we tend to write stuff based on each other's works.
Friends for you to read and review:

Please drop honest and thoughtful reviews. How can I ever fix anything if you don't tell me what's right and wrong? Also, I love symbolism, metaphors, etc, and I'm VERY character focused. Thus, occassionally I get so caught up in the people, I forget about the plot. Please catch me on such things. Thanks so much!
Feel free to email me or message me (I have Yahoo Messenger... same screen name as my email). I love messages also. Just please don't use this to harass me! Thanks!

But the secret sits in the middle and knows."
