Lady Gunblade created a beautiful and amazing promo video on YouTube that focuses on Zack and Cloud's insecurities. The song is just ... so sad and perfect. Makes me tear up, actually. Anyway, go here to watch, rate, favorite and comment!:

EDIT 07-08-2011: YouTube is a total douchebag and blocked the video recently because of copyright issues. It says it's blocked in "your country" (USA) so I'm not sure if people from other countries can still watch it. You can try watching it with the link below, but it might not work regardless. I'll speak with Lady Gunblade and see if I can, with her permission, upload the video to my Photobucket account for those who want to watch it. I am so bummed!

Thank you Panda!!

So much love and thanks to them all! I'm honored that something that I've written inspired these talented people to share with us their passion for their art, and for my story. Whenever I have a bad day, or writer's block, revisting these pieces from these amazing friends helps me through my day. I honestly can't thank them enough!

Anyway! As for me on a personal level, I dunno. Curious? Just ask. I'm always up for a conversation. Well, here are a few things:

I'm not very verbally articulate at times.

My license plate frame on my car reads: "My other ride is a chocobo"

I can be long-winded (I GET IT FROM MY DAD. DON'T JUDGE ME)

My favorite food is shrimp.

I hate Michael McDonald.

And last but not least: If Cloud Strife were real I would hop in bed with him in a millisecond. Just saying. XD

In-Progress: Existing - Not abandoned. Just...really, really, really slowed down. Kinda hit a small wall on that one. Small wall = writer's block. I actually have everything planned out to the very end, it's just getting to those plot points and filling in things in between that's a bit troubling. Don't worry, it's too good of an idea/story for me to completely drop. I'll pick it back up again after Malady is finished. Thank you to all who follow it. I love you.

In-Progress: Malady - Updated about once a month on a Tuesday around midnight PST. For exact dates, please see the ending author's notes in the current chapter. Thank you to all who follow this one as well. I am so thrilled about the response I'm getting over it. Thank you, you all are amazing and keep me writing. At first, I was writing this story just to get my yaoi demons out, but after the response from everyone, I'm mostly writing it for you guys now. I love you all. :3
