Tara Gilesbie 

The proud writer of the infamous fanfiction, My Immortal. It is a very loosely Harry Poter fanfic. The story is about her character, Ebony (or Enoby) Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way who is a witch and a vampire and bisexual.

She enjoys dressing like a whore having sex with Draco Malfoy in the Forbiden Forest going to Good Charlotte concerts in Hogsmeade and eating Count Chocula cereal with blood instead of milk.

Tara Gilesbie claims to be very goffik and even implied that she would slit her wrists with every flame she got for her story, though I am very sure that just encouraged them even more. Also, everyone who flamed was pronounced to be "prepz" and jealous that her fanfic got a total of 10,000 hits.

My Immortal has been delated from fanfiction, though many people attempt to repost it on a daily basis.

Feel free to do so yourself.
