Hello there!

I enjoy many genres of mystique and phantasm, especially those conveyed in works of science fiction and through the delightful construct of anime. Toonami got me hooked on Dragon Ball Z, Outlaw Star, and more. My other anime interests include, but are not limited to, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Hellsing, Cowboy Bebop, and Fullmetal Alchemist. I'm a Star Wars fan, a Stargate aficionado, and a big fan of Issac Asimov, H.G. Wells, and Orson Scott Card.

This community of writers, Fanfiction.net, is an excellent opportunity for us to come together and share our expansions of the universes we love. Let's keep on writing, and let's keep having fun.

In frienship and fanfiction,

Dedications:

8/7/09: A series abridger who I did not know personally, but who enriched me with his sense of humor and desire to help people be happy, passed away in July. I was shocked beyond words when I found this out today. I even almost cried. The poor boy gave so much of his time and effort to helping people laugh. My deepest and most sincere feelings go to his family, and to all those who called him friend.

Rest in peace, RaymsCreator, you will be very much missed.

Here is the Web address to a tribute video Cassius614 made in his honor and memory:
