I bid you hello and welcome to my new profile. My name is Syrus and I have been a functioning member of the fandom for two years and counting. My presence here is not as heavy as it used to be, but I'll be getting back to my stories eventually. I've got a quaint little forum where you can usually find me and I am open to receiving both PMs and direct emails. I don't do much beta work anymore but I still try to write what I can when I get the chance. I'll be going more into my activity on FFN and more about me personally later on in the profile, but I won't waste anymore of your time. If you're not that interested in me, I'd say you could navigate away from this page now. The rest is just more in-depth details.

Writing

My writing style is a work in progress. I am working on cutting the proverbial "fat" that is the superfluous descriptions, among other things my writing could do without. I have two stories posted currently. Both of which I haven't updated in ages, much to my chagrin. I looked over some of it and found that I would need to radically revise much of it in order to carry on with updates because the simple fact is that my style is vastly better than it was nearly a year ago when most of this stuff was written. I am currently in the process of rousing my beta reader to help me change a lot of the basic stuff, but it needs a lot of work.

Forums

I occasionally visit the forums, but recently I've been trying to muster the will to write stories again. I still make sporadic appearances, but I've mostly moved on like everybody else. Mostly the forums are just meaningless noise and since the dawn of the RP forums, there's been an overall decrease in the collective IQ of the forums all over the site. Flame Rising and Co., the Omnipotent Ones, Octavarius Kaiser Scott, and a host of other trolls have all but vanished. The first page of the forums looks completely different now than it did a year or two ago. Looks like we're in for a dark age.
