| November Romeo |
Author has written 31 stories for Harry Potter, Initial D, Gakuen Alice, and Card Captor Sakura. I think the most fascinating people you could meet are those who are interested in new worlds; new worlds from the likeness of Narnia and Middle Earth to the remarkable sites of Tomoeda, Hillwood City and Gaea. In pursuit of these worlds and the people that go with them, I joined fanfiction.net. I am in search of kindred spirits, tortured souls and flourishing/frustrated writers. Whichever you are of the three, I am very glad to meet you. "Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self." - Cyril Connolly “To whosoever plagiarizes my work and steals my name, may your writing always be trite, your language unrefined and your syntax so atrocious that your meaning never gets across. May your keyboard collect dust from disuse and your notebook yellow with age for lack of original thought. May your peers frown upon what you have done and may your single or multiple offenses trouble your entire career. Let it stand between you and true success evermore. May every hour of writing be difficult for you. May every minute be a chore. May you lose that false passion and your confidence be shaken for the rest of your days. Whether with malicious intent or not, whether with full knowledge or otherwise, you have wronged me and my kith. Not by the words but the will behind it shall this piece haunt you. That each time you labor to compose you will remember what you have done and yearn for the integrity you lost. Because the skill was never yours. Because your creativity had been a sham. Because this craft was never meant for your kind.” --November Romeo, February 2011 A frequent request I receive is that I give sufficient notice before I leave so that’s what I’m doing now. I’m going to close this account by June 2013, exactly seven years since I started it. Until then, I’ll do my best to finish the two pending stories under this pen name. Writing for Gakuen Alice has been fun and I’ve written so many snippets on the characters that the makeshift timeline in my head is quite complete. Before I become entirely engrossed in my other stories, I’d like to conclude my stint here on a high note. That said I hope you indulge me some more as I enter the final stretch. I thank you in advance for your time, your reviews, your support and, above all, your implicit friendship. All my best, | |||||
