Author has written 25 stories for Fullmetal Alchemist, Death Note, Naruto, and Sherlock.

I've taken some things down lately that might irk some people a bit. But I couldn't stand to look at them anymore. So if you want to talk to me about getting copies of them, pm me. What I've taken down is as follows: Ghost Love Score, Ghosts of Our Pasts, and Blood on the Snow. What I will be taking down is as follows: Taming the Tiger.

Hola! What's up? I suppose if you're bothering to read this, you want to know who I am. You can call me Shadow.

Age: 22

I'm an American, but I can't see myself living here for the rest of my life. I love traveling and I want to be an anthropologist so I'm hoping to get to see the world. After all, there's so much more out there.

I'm an undergraduate student right now, but I'm set to graduate soon.

The eighty seven and a half zillion other places around teh interwebs where you can visit me:

1. FFN's sister site, fictionpress.com, has a bunch of my older original work. I'll get around to updating that eventually. clear-sight
2. I now have a deviantART account. clear-sight
4. And I've just joined mangabullet. Like my dA account, however, this is new and getting things put up will be a gradual process. Also, there are stories on this site that are not on ffn, if anyone's interested. Clear-Sight

A/N:

A note regarding all of my stories on here at this point. I'm rewriting things. Pretty much everything, actually. Especially the older things, because I honestly can't stand to look at them anymore. On that list, in the order I'll be redoing them:

1. Faded- I've already started on that. I pulled the whole thing down ahead of time because it was such a mess. But that one's started
2. Bell the Cat- This one's already started. It's a work in progress, so I want to get that done before I move on. Mostly I'm just fixing Ed's characterization because I didn't like the way I portrayed him. So actual editing should be minimal.
3. Taming the Tiger- This one's also already started, though I only have one of the edited chapters up. I'm doing this one next because it's a work in progress, but I don't want to move forward with it until it's edited. But, people have already been waiting around for 43 chapters to see how it's going to end, so the torches and pitchforks are actually long overdue. The title will be changed as well. When I start putting up edited chapters, I'm going to change the title to either The Tiger or just Tiger. This one will be coming down once I have time to go through everything relating to it. It seems to have been really popular, so if you want a copy of it I can send it to you. But I've come to hate this story and I really don't have the drive to finish it anymore. My apologies.
4. Memories - I chose this one to do next for two reasons. First, it's the sequel to Faded, so I want the new version finished by the time I finish Faded. Second, it's over two years old, so the writing is absolutely horrendous. Actually, this was my the first fanfic I ever finished. The first I ever wrote was Truth, which actually started out as an L/Raito story and morphed into what's on the site. But that one's discontinued and has only been spared deletion by virtue of being my first fic.
5. Wishing for the Sunset - Because it's awful and has a sequel. It needs serious work before I can get Pheonix off the ground.

If I finish with those, then I might work on the ones that have been discontinued. Some of them people really like and so I might finish them. Others are because I want to finish them. All of the discontinued ones I'm rewriting will be with the intent of finishing them:

1. Godless- This is part of an evolution that has been going on since I started writing fanfics. It goes Truth, Moonlight and Raindrops, Godless, Anomaly, then the Wammy's Boys trilogy followed by the Wammy's Boys quintet plus the piece currently titled Fallen. But this is my favourite of the earlier ones. It has a certain fire to it that the ones before it lacked. But the writing and presentation aren't as mature as they could be. My writing's improved since then. But I want to finish it. Plus people like this fic.
2. Hand of Sorrow- This is my only Naruto fanfic. I actually am not a fan of the series, just the characters. But I like the idea of this fic. It's really the only fantasy fic I have, and when I write original fiction I write primarily fantasy. So I'd like to finish it. However, it's old and the writing is crap, so it's being redone.
3. Truth- I want to finish this. This is my first ever fic, which I began posting the same day as Memories. It's not really good, seeing as how it's over two years old, but I want to finish it just because it was the first one I started. Plus it's the first in the Wammy's progression. I want to finish all of those.
4. Moonlight and Raindrops- This one kinda wandered off track and died. I want to resurrect it. Besides, it's my only fluff fic.

And the Wammy's Boys series (now called Letters) gets it's own section. That's because I'm doing some odd things with that. I wanted it as close to canon as possible, so editing is being done:

1. Inequity- I have now started on this one. I've pulled down everything but the newly rewritten first chapter. I should be updating on a semi-regular basis now. I'll have to get to where the Letters come in before I start posting B's, though I've already started it.
2. Devious- This is B's. It will be the second. When I get to the point where the 4th generation comes in, I'll start reposting Anomaly.
3. Anomaly- This is Near's. It was the first of this set that I started. I'm keeping the basic premise, but I'm making some alterations. I want it to fit better with the others.
4. Lost- This one's Matt's. It was the third to be introduced I will be doing pretty much a complete overhaul of this one. A recent conversation with JahLoveAngel really got me thinking about him and there are some things I want to change.
5. Forsaken - This is Mello's and will take the place of Fallen. Fallen simply isn't at all believable. And I want these stories to be believable. So I'm replacing it with this. I already have it started and it's shaping up to be quiet interesting.

6. Fallen- Last one, though it was the second introduced. And it's Mello's. I'm scrapping this one and starting over. Now I will be keeping this story on the site, but it won't be connected to Letters. The reason I'm scrapping this. It isn't believable. At all. It is interesting, which is why I'm keeping it, but I want the stories in Letters to at least be believable.

So there you have it. The overhaul of my portfolio on this site. All of this will probably take me quite some time, so please bear with me. Besides, it should at least be interesting to watch. Onward!
