WARNING: THIS PAGE CONTAINS THOUGHTS AND THOUGHT BY-PRODUCTS:
PROCEED WITH CAUTION
Okay, for all of you that were keeping up with my story "The Aurora Prophecy", I regret to inform all six or so of you that I had to take it down. I was re-reading it the other day and decided that it needed a major overhaul. But never fear, as soon as I can I will have it back up. Thank you so much for all of your reviews and helpful hints. I took them into account. Don't pelt me with tomatoes, please.
As of today, the project "If Only, If Only" is COMPLETE! Thank all of you who gave it a chance and read it. The sequel, which some of you requested and I do intend to write, will be put on hold in favor of another new project. Stick around and see what it is. -winks-
Chapter seventeen of "Liturgy" is now up and running! Again, a mighty thanks to all of you who reviewed, since it warms the cockles of my heart. Though, I have to give a special thank you to Madhumulati, who has joined the ranks of my beta-ers. Without you, this story wouldn't be what it was. I would also like to thank Ditch Gospel and Keiran, as well as Sakurazukamori6 for their VERY helpful reviews. I'm also adding Windy, Empy, V-chan, Cyh for being awesome in their suggestions and helpful hints. You guys are teh awesomeness!
I would also like to announce that I am archived at Echoes from the West. My penname is the same over there. So far, I only have three stories up, but it's a start. You can find the url here. If you get a chance, go check it out. Definitely worth browsing.
I have also updated my livejournal, which means that I'm actually going and twiddling around with it. If anyone wants to poke me over there, feel free. My journal is currently f-locked, so if you want to be added, drop me a comment on my banner and I'll see what I can do. I have more fics over there, so...yeah.
Liturgy fanart by Keiran can be found here. Definitely worth checking out.
Now, for information about me.
I am 21 years old, and am an avid fanfic writer. Generally, I tend to lean more towards Saiyuki, Gundam Wing, Bleach, and Naruto fics as of late. Occasionally I will be known to write a BTVS and HP fic or two.
As for what kinds of fics I read, I tend to lean towards the ones that you see above. However, I will read fics that catch my interest, especially if they are VERY well-written.
I heart yaoi fics, but I do not limit myself. Go me.
I am a doujinshi fanatic. I am in the process of collecting as many as humanly (and financially) possible. I have over a dozen in hard copy, and three times as many on my computer. If anybody has any good sites to recommend, let's hear 'em. You would make me a very happy person. A few of my favorite artists: Youe Kagurai, Bunny Urasawa, and Nouzen Kazura, as well as the uber-porny works of Tenkachi Benny's and Superbabys. Also...I have found the greatest doujin ever! It's Kazuya Minekura AND Yun Kouga! -swoons- Also, I should be in the process of scanning them onto my computer ASAP. If anyone is interested in them, drop me a line. I'd be happy to share. I have mostly Saiyuki ones, but I do have several Naruto ones as well.

DISLIKES:
Fandoms I won't be caught dead reading/writing: How would you like that? Alphabetically?

Other stuff: bad fanfiction, excessive disuse of grammar and/or spelling, stupidity (ignorance is excused, stupidity is not), closed minds, intolerance, bad voice-overs, Inuyasha (if I offend anyone, I'm terribly sorry), pop music (unless it's in another language...then it's just cool. XD), emo poetry (I am guilty of this one as well), being sick, bitchy customers, Bridezillas. I'm sure there will be more when I think of them.
Constructive criticism is always appreciated. Flames are welcome too, but those generally tend to get fed to the thing that lives under my bed. It seems he considers them a delicacy, but I wouldn't know. I don't think they're very tasty.
I think that's it for now. Check out my stories and tell me what you think.
"I stared, motionless, before the mirror. As always, I stayed until I'm convinced that there is no glass, nothing, separating me from the room I see on the other side. I imagine that everything is different. Over there. Better. There are people, in that world, who I would like. But, like always, my hand hits that glass. I know that if I'd only waited one more second..."
