Birthday: May 13, 1987

Name: Amanda

Height: 5'1" and a few centimeters...

My favorite fandoms are harry potter, ranma 1/2, sailor moon, inuyasha, peter pan, and fairy tail.

My favorite pairings from each are:

Harry Potter:
Draco/Ginny, Draco/Harry, Draco/Luna, Blaise/Pansy, Blaise/Ginny, Blaise/Hermione, Ron/Hermione (not a fav but I use it in almost every story... gonna stop doing that...), Theo/Ginny, Theo/other man, Fred/Pansy, Fred/Daphne, Harry/Luna, Harry/Daphne, Harry/OC (Draco's sister, only in one story)... so basically, the non canon ones XD I HATE putting Harry with Snape unless it's a guardian fic. I think it's disgusting.

Ranma 1/2:
Akane/Ranma, Ukyo/Ryoga, Kasumi/Tofu, Ranma's Sister Aikoyu/OC (I have this thing with giving Ranma a sister a lot... it's just so much fun to play with)

Sailor Moon:
The usuals plus I make up a lot of characters for this fandom

Inuyasha:
Kagome/Sesshoumaru, Sango/Miroku, Sango/Koga, Ayame/Koga, Ayame/Inuyasha, OC/Inuyasha, OC/Koga

Peter Pan:
Hook/OC, OC/OC (Hook's son and whatever girl is in that story), John/Tigerlily

Fairy Tail:
Levi/Gazille, Erza/Jelal, Erza/Gray, Lucy/Natsu, and I make a few OCs for this fandom too

I love fanfiction... as you can tell. I've been on this site for over ten years now and I figure it's time to put some information up. My previous name was Yuki Asao, I still have that as the original account, my favorite characters are from Harry Potter: Fred, George, Draco, Ginny, Snape, and Luna, from Ranma: Ukyo, female Ranma, male Ranma, and Ryoga, from Sailor Moon: Sailors Jupiter and Mars, from Inuyasha: Sesshoumaru, Sango, Kagome, and Inuyasha, from Peter Pan: Peter and Hook, and from Fairy Tail: Erza and Gazille.

I have a BA in vertebrate paleontology, I have two unpaid internships at two museums of natural history working in their fossil labs as an apprentice preparator, I am a writer (duh), I'm an artist, I have been going to the rhode island school of design for the past 2 years in continuing education doing natural science illustration so I can draw things like dinosaurs (yay!), I have three cats a dog and fish, I keep aquariums as a hobby, I do mixed martial arts (the true kind, where we learn as many types of martial arts as our sensei knows (about 17) instead of the UFC kind where fighters usually utilize maybe 4 in the ring), my boyfriend is the sensei, I live in Providence RI, um... I'll add more as I think of it...

About my view of fanfiction -

Firstly, I don't believe in mary sues. This is FICTION, people. The authors get to write about whatever they want, however they want, and make up whoever they want. If the author is writing in a way you don't like or has characters that seem "out of character" to you or has made up their own characters that seem too perfect to you, TOUGH. It's their story and if you don't like it, just stop reading. There is no need to leave a nasty review. It just makes people either angry or sad and there's no point to that. Constructive criticism is different from a flame review.

Secondly, I don't believe there is such a thing as "out of character." In the world of fiction, you get to do whatever you want. In the world of fanfiction, the rules are the same - there are no rules. If someone takes a character like Draco Malfoy for example, and gives him a back story like abuse or neglect or not wanting to go with Voldemort's wishes, and that in turn gives him a softer side, what's it to you? It makes sense. I've seen this too many times to not say something. And, even if the author doesn't give a back story, they're STILL allowed to change the characters of the original story they chose to write about.

Thirdly, writing is all about fun. Have fun with it. Be creative. There are no limits. Shed your limitations, and those that other people impose on you, and write about whatever you want.

So go have fun :)
