yo. I'm TooDarnLazy.

My avatar. The WTF Bin: where the insignificant, practically plotless, typo-filled and grammatically-incorrect fics should go. Unfortunately, like public trashcans everywhere, The WTF Bin is not optimally utilized, hence the many crappy fics littering the cyberspace of FFnet and various fanficiton archives across the internet. Please do your part to keep our little fanworld clean - clean up your fics or chuck them in The WTF Bin where they belong.

XD

(LOL! I actually saw that bin when i was out for lunch with a couple of colleagues, and just had to snap a photo of it with my camera phone! ...Alright, fine. i did exaggerate the pic a little. I enlarged the 'WTF' spray-painted onto the bin as it was too small to be seen in such a scaled-down avatar, and added my penname. That's all I did, honest!)

What would you like to know? :-)

I love reading books, good fanfics and some manga. currently i'm kinda obsessed with Naruto, though I do read the occasional Detective Conan and Doraemon, as well as some one- and two-shot manga, mostly shoujo manga. I used to read Bleach, but I got bored waiting for the darned long fights in Hueco Mundo to wrap up. I really loved it before the Hueco Mundo arc. sigh.

so... Naruto. Fave characters? Naruto, definitely. and Namikaze Minato (kyaa!! drooldrool XD), Uchiha Itachi (kyaa!! droooool XD), Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Kushina (I like her by default - she's Naruto's mommy!), Gaara, Haruno Sakura and some assorted others :-D

I love writing, but unfortunately age and its ensuing responsibilities caught up with me and crammed my time with work. Sigh. When this is coupled with the fact that I am innately lazy... well, you get the picture ;-) I have quite a few fic ideas rattling around in my head, which interfere with the progress of current fics, as which fic I work on depends on my motivation and inspiration at that given time. In short: I'm a slow updater XD

I'd like to take the opportunity to thank you who read my fics, and especially those who take the time to write a meaningful review. I appreciate getting feedback, but what I mean by feedback is you actually telling me what you think of what I've written, not just 'Update Plz!' or 'Update Soon!' or 'Great Chapter'. I would really like to know more than that. So again, to those who have read and reviewed, thank you so very much! >bows in gratitude

I'm sorry to all who read The Returns. it's not dead yet, but the plot bunnies (is that what they're called?) pushed the idea for I Think I (and a few other fics!) into my brain and wouldn't give up, so i'll be finishing that first, probably before returning to The Returns (pun unintended XD), unless 'em plot bunnies decide to stuff more ideas into my brain :-)

ja. mata! :-)

30th September 2008.

Short announcement/notification thingy. I've been accepted into the mother of all crash-courses. It's vital I pass it, or else I'm going to end up in a big amount of debt, since I'm on scholarship. If you're groaning and moaning right now, you've probably guessed what I want to say next - yup. My fanfic writing time has been drastically cut down.

NO, I AM NOT GIVING UP ON OR ABANDONING ITI. I remember including a 'warning' in each of my chaptered fics, and in that warning I did mention that I am an erratic and sporadic updater. So, without meaning to offend... well, you've been warned. While I don't mind you reminding me nicely to update, please keep in mind that I am quite busy right now.

Be happy, though - the course should end by the middle of next year. And there's no way on earth I'd give up writing entirely until that time - I'm too addicted ;-) I have quite a few plots for stories running through my head and I itch really badly to just sit down and write it all, but time's a real constraint. sigh...

Well, just wanted to inform you guys.

Thank you so much to those who still read ITI and ITM even though it's been ages between updates. I read all your reviews, even if I don't have the time to reply to each one of them. The fact that you guys read what I write keeps me motivated to keep writing. Thank you thank you thank you!

ja.
