Hello,

I just thought I would introduce myself to everyone. I am Shawna, 29 (and holding ), and I live in West Virginia, USA. I have been a rabid Harry Potter fan since my mom gave me the books to read in the fall of 2000 after my son was born. I became involved in beta reading about 6 months ago with the PI. Now if I don't have a chapter to work on then I feel lost and don't know what to do when I sit down at my computer.

I have 5 authors that I am working with right now. One of my authors approached me last night about beta reading a one shot story about Remus. She said a group of 20 or so authors were getting together and each writing a chapter about one specific character and their life during Voldemort's rein and putting them all together into one story. I am really looking forward to it because she is an awesome author and I love working with her. She just brings Remus to life in a way that is hard to explain. Plus she mentioned that she was going to write the chapter in both 3rd and 1st person and see which one she liked best. I am so excited and really looking forward to it.

Anyway, I am so excited about working with the Phoenix Song. Even though I will beta just about any type of fic, except slash fics, deep down I am a H/G and R/Hr shipper at heart. I look forward to getting to know you all.

Cheers,

Shawna

Hey Shawna,
You already know me, but I thought you'd like to know that there's at least one familiar face here. I'm not sure how much you know about me, but I write alot, between manageing PI of course. I'm a bit apprehensive about becoming AU again, but i think maybe this time i'll embrace it.

Glad too see you here!

Well I guess I could tell you all a bit more about me......

I am a mother to Savannah, 12 and David, 4. My children are HP fans as well but no where near as big a fan as I am. My hobbies are reading, reading and more reading.....LOL right now I am reading Life Expectancy by Dean Koontz. I also like to scuba dive when I get the chance and I like the outdoors, hiking, camping, swimming, etc. I home school both my kids so my days are pretty busy. Right now I am taking advantage of my daughter doing her workout routine to use the computer before hitting the books again. I have a dog, she's a mutt. I also have a 12 inch Tiger Oscar and a 10 inch Sailfin Pleco and a 8 inch Common Pleco. (For those of you that don't know what a pleco is.....it's one of those nasty looking algae eaters that sucks on the side of the fishtank.)

If anyone has any questions just let me know.

Take Care,

Shawna
