Author has written 21 stories for Transformers, Digimon, and Transformers/Beast Wars.

Behold, I have an icon. Linkmaste, another writer here who apparently is also able to draw, did a rendition of my creation, Fatemon. In my opinion, she captured his appearance quite well from my written description in my story "Destiny." So, here he is in all his awesome glory.

I am essentially Queen of the Bookworms. I am also a speed reader. Example, I finished reading "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" in less than twelve hours of reading. I watched way too many cartoons and Disney movies growing up. I'm the oldest of three and the only girl. I prefer a good action movie to a romantic comedy any day.

If I review your story, I will try to stay positive, because I'm not good at being mean, but I will not read stories that has drastically bad grammar. I just don't feel like wasting my time deciphering it, sorry. I will never use foul language in my stories or have too twisted romance. I don't like to read that stuff, so why should I make others. If that's a problem, there are plenty of other writers for you to bother.

Mostly, I want to have fun with my stories and I hope you have fun with them too. I like to write, so I write for myself. I'm just nice enough to let others give me their opinions. So you should be grateful that I'm sharing.

I like it when you tell me what you think. Otherwise, how will I ever improve? So, that rectangle button at the bottom of chapters? Press it and leave a review please.


Fanfiction Rules:

While I may end up breaking these myself at times, I try to stick to these as much as possible. You're welcome to borrow them yourself (in fact, I encourage you to).

1) Do not make canon characters act completely out-of-character. The only reason you should do that is if you handle it carefully, it is short term, and you have a very good explanation as to why. Nothing throws a person for a loop like their favorite character acting weird all of a sudden. This also means that you shouldn't treat your least favorite character like they're an idiot just because you hate them. Try to be fair to all the members of the canon, not just those you like. In fact, take it as a challenge to write them well, despite your personal feelings.

2) "There," "their," and "they're" are different words with different meanings. The same goes for "it's" and "its." Learn them and know which one is which. It makes a world of difference in your writing if you use the correct word.

3) Reread and double-check your work. Spell-check is not fool-proof. Sometimes just going over something will help you spot dumb mistakes. I end up writing out on paper my story first, then type it. That takes care a lot of mistakes, just copying it to the computer. Then, I reread it a little later to spot the rest. Find your own system, but you need to reread your work!

4) One word, people: grammar. Do not fear it; love it. Nothing can scare off a reader like horrid grammar in a story. And if they do stick around, chances are they can only barely understand what they're reading.

5) All pairings are fair game, if it makes sense. If there is no hint at a character having feelings towards another, good or bad, why act like its been there all along? Those new feelings can develop, but don't create them all at once. It's not nice to break up an established couple just to stick the hero with your original character either. And not every boy and girl (or boy and boy, or girl and girl. I'm not against that, if there is a evidence of that in the canon to support that kind of relationship. Please don't do that just because you can) has to be a couple. Friendships can be just as important and difficult to craft, but worth the effort in the long run.

6) "Ain't" is not a word. The only reason I will allow it in a story is in dialog. People can say it in conversation, but other than that... NO!

7) Be descriptive in your work. Don't just say "It was a black cat," say "The feline rubbed his midnight fur against her leg, blinking his amber eyes with pleasure." Much more fun to read.

8)There are hundreds of ways to say "said" (yelled, cried, whispered, begged, questioned, wondered, remarked, called, announced, gasped, laughed, smirked, growled, groaned, screamed, smiled, joked, hissed, explained, described, muttered, grinned, wept, panted, sighed, asked, coughed, snarled, shrieked, snapped, breathed, choked, shouted, giggled, moaned, whined, complained, whimpered, breathed, mumbled, assured, ect). Use them. They're more descriptive of the tone, volume, style, and emotions of the speaker and really take a good story to a great story.

9)Don't be afraid to try new story ideas. Just think them out first. How many times do you find a fanfiction that is incomplete because a writer doesn't know where to go from there? It helps to have a rough plan for the story of how to get from point A to B. It prevents you from writing yourself into a corner. You can always change it as you go, but it will give you some structure to work with.

10)Original characters are fine to add to a story, just beware of the curse of Mary Sue. Make them believable. This means faults, imperfections, a backstory (not a overly sappy one with either too much perfection or too much angst! That's not a backstory; that's a soap opera), and real personality. Don't just photocopy yourself in so you can date your favorite character, either. Create an original character, meaning not existing elsewhere (including the real world). In all likelihood, not every canon character will like the same person equally. Some may hate them (shocking, right?) and they could be very well justified in their hate. Some personalities just clash. (This does not mean that your least favorite character must be mean to your original character so you can show the world why you hate that character. Try to be better than that.) The more realistic you can make them, the better. If possible, create an individual that could easily have existed since the beginning, even if they didn't deal with the canon characters directly, and seems to belong in that universe.

Story Info:

With my Annabelle and Ironhide stories, they are a little out of order. Here is how they go. I'll update the list as I write more.

Black Crayons

Drawings

Baby-sitters Nightmare

Night Sky

Bully

ParentTeacher Conference

Everyone Needs a Birthday

Baby-sitting, Take Two

When I Grow Up

Party Time

Language Lessons

Summer Vacation

My First Decepticon

The "Satan's Camaro" story is not directly connected with those stories, but it is hilarious. I felt Miles should have a moment all his own. In the movie, he vanished half-way into the movie, never to be heard from again. I'm also have done one for Glen, called "Twitchy" that more people should read and review. Really, Glen only has about two fanfictions about him that I can find. Finally, I did a sequel for "Satan's Camaro" with Maggie as well called "Ferrari". Enjoy all my stories and let me know what you think.

In addition, I have a Transformers Animated story that may not be my best work, but it fills in a gap for me left by season 3.

I also have a few digimon stories, mostly about season 3, Digimon Tamers. That was my favorite season of them all. I like the first season a lot too. That started it all off, introduced the concept of digimon, and had some real cool elements. The second and fifth are alright. They have their moments of coolness, but other times they fall flat. (I'm in denial about the fourth season. I deny that season exists... Sorry, but they really made a mess there in my opinion by taking away the concept of partners.)
