BREAKING NEWS!!

October 12, 2009.

After a week of frantic searching for the missing two-year-old Auckland girl Aisling Symes, a child's body has been found in a drain a few houses away from where she went missing, which is believed to be the body of Aisling. Please leave your prayers with her family at this time.

6/09/2009 - Chapter 5 of 'Tears Aren't Made to Fall' has been uploaded! Sorry for the long wait. Thank you to everyone who has waited out the four months and stuck with the story. You all rock!

IMPORTANT NOTE!!

I have recently decided, after much consideration, to delete some of my fics. Most of them are older works and some are ones that I know I will never finish. There are quite a few fics that will be deleted, but after recent events in my life I feel that I need a change. I will no longer be writing yaoi fics, so the majority of those will be deleted as well. I am sorry for everyone who has enjoyed the fics I am taking down, but I feel that my writing has improved so much since writing these stories. Most of them have not had any activity in recent months, which also aided in the choice of whether they were to be taken down or not.

However, some of them may be re-written and re-posted after a while. I will keep you posted as to which ones those are.

- My Paradise of Hell, Without You, Hardships, If You Ever, As We Fall, Long Lost Life, Secrets Forbidden, Inner Deceit of Darkness, This One, Through Darkness That Falls (rewrite?), Forever and Always (rewrite?), Lucifer's Angel (rewrite?), Wounds That Heal, Valentine's Day, Time to Stay, All We Hold Dear, But You Didn't, Chaos, The Deepest Fears (rewrite), Dear Angel of Mine.

I know that there's a lot of fics that I have taken down, but if you still would like to read any of them, email me and I'll send you the Word Document :)

Thanks,

Rachel.

ABOUT ME

Well, this could potentially be extremely boring, but I'll give it a try anyways :P

I am female, 19 years of age, and live with my Mum, Dad, younger sister, younger brother, two dogs (Sasha and Jasper) and two cats (Simba and Ziggy). I live in New Zealand, in a city at the top of the South Island called Nelson. It's a beautiful place to live and where I reside, I am 15 minutes away from the city centre, 5 minutes away from the beach and about 5 minutes from the nearest hills/mountains. If you want to know a little about what New Zealand's scenery is, just think Lord of the Rings, which was mainly shot in NZ :)

I work in a supermarket (have been for 3 years) and left school just before I turned 18. I've never been out of the country, but have been to two concerts in Auckland (My Chemical Romance and Panic at the Disco). I love to read (especially vampire novels), but I HATE Twilight! I'm a big fan of movies and I normally got to the cinema once a week with my best friend (it's like a weekly ritual lol). At the moment, my favourite movie is a movie Peter Jackson produced - District 9.

My favourite TV programme is Supernatural and has been ever since I first saw it in 2007. I own all three box sets (courtesy of Amazon.com) and the fourth is on it's way. I have all three novels, two of the companion books, the book of monsters, John's Journal and four of the Offical Supernatural Magazine. Recently, for my birthday, my friend bought me a Supernatural wall-blanket that is now nicely taking up loads of wall space :)

Writing is one of my favourite pastimes. I have been doing so my entire life, but only started to write seriously after my Nana passed away in 2004. I started writing fanfiction in 2006 for the anime Beyblade, but since then have written for Fruits Basket, Naruto (deleted) and Supernatural. I would like to write some for Dark Angel, but haven't got around to it yet. I also write my own original fictions, but have never managed to complete one yet (that I like). My original work mainly comprises of horror/vampire plot, but my first story was a teen-life about a boy trying to get over the death/suicide of his twin. I'm in the process of re-writing it, but it's taking a while as it is over 300 pages on Microsoft Word.
