Duckpuppy, later known as trolleys, is a fan artist.
As Duckpuppy, she was an early and influential slash artist in the Harry Potter fandom, known especially for her Harry/Draco works. She was posting HP art by 2003 on her personal art site, yoflam.
She was also known for her "drawble" exchanges, where other fans were invited to comment on her journal post with drabbles and she would create sketches for them.
Starting in mid 2005, Duckpuppy went through a succession of LiveJournal username changes and by 2006 deleted most of her HP art from the web. She started using the name trolleys by 2008, by then creating art for a variety of fandoms.
In 2009, she did an Ask the Artist interview for Supernatural Roundtable.
In 2011, she announced that she would be closing her LiveJournal art community, "trolleys_art". Her personal journal was deleted by early 2013, and the community was deleted by 2015.[2]

- ^ greeksong was a journal used from March to November 2004. In June 2005, the "duckpuppy" journal was renamed "flimsy" and continued to be used to post to the yoflam community. "flimsy" was renamed "flimsything" (Jan 2006 source), "flimpy" (example of name change), and eventually "trolleys" (linked e.g. through dmhgficexchange: 2008 Masterlist, trolleys_art), traceable through LiveJournal posts and comments. "oddments" appears to have been a separate journal used at the same time as "trolleys" (see 2009 interview).
