Author has written 41 stories for X-Men: The Movie, X-Files, Ultimate Marvel, X-Men, Harry Potter, and Twilight.

Minisinoo has been writing fiction since she was eleven years old and got bored with the usual "write a sentence which uses this vocabulary word" exercise in 6th grade English class. Her sentences turned into paragraphs, and the paragraphs turned into little stories . . . and she just kept on telling stories for the next 30 years. She comes by storytelling honestly, having been born into a family of storytellers. In native tradition, storytelling is "sacred business." Sure, storytellers entertain, but Min likes to tell stories that might actually "mean something," too (and how's that for arrogant?).

Min has penned a number of X-Men, Harry Potter & even a few Twilight stories, and has been given over 25 different awards and a wide variety of recs and reviews. Previously, much of her fiction (especially the longer works) were not available on this site, due to ratings. She will be gradually posting them here, but please pay attention to warnings, especially on the novels, as Min writes literary mainstream fiction by trade, and not everything is suitable for minors.

For those who prefer eBook formats, Please Google my name. Fan fiction net no longer allows ANY links, even in profiles. You cannot send me your email address in a private message, either, for me to contact you. Fan fiction net will auto delete it. Sorry!

For those looking, The Medicine Wheel is now permanently offline and Min has retired from active participation in fanfiction. She still welcomes feedback -- and certainly appreciates anyone taking the time to write -- but asks you to accept her thanks in advance. She leaves up the stories here for reader enjoyment.
