Hey there:)

I've noticed that I actually have a decent amount of traffic on my profile page, so I thought it best to actually put a little content in it. So, here you'll find the status update (new!) on my story, background on my stories, Random Plug (new!), Favorite Pairings, and that's about it. Have a great day!

...So, I guess I have a fan club. XD Tiburon1984 made it over on DA, if you want to check it out. http://ctn-fan-club.deviantart.com/ I feel like a dork mentioning it, but I think it was really sweet of him to do. =)

STATUS UPDATE:

10-19 - I updated CTS and I'm putting Velocity on the back burner for a while... probably until the Holidays. I need to focus on my other two stories for a bit, bit I will come back to it. =)

10-10 - TLE update!!

09-06 & 09-13 - Two TLE updates in one week!

08-29 - I posted a new Scryed story called Velocity today. :ducks: Don't throw things! I love you! XD I wasn't feeling the writing mojo for TLE or CTS, so inspiration came out in the form of this story. Please give it a read! =)

08-17 - Aleen-chan made cute little chibis of Renji and Ellie on DA! http://aleen-chan.deviantart.com/art/C-H-I-B-I-s-5-133610964

08 - 16 - CTS update! Pssst... the CTN-FAN-CLUB is apparently running a CONTEST over at DeviantArt! Those of you that check my profile are getting a heads up! I will mention this in my next TLE update, but for details, you'll have to check out the "official" page that Tiburon1984 created. I believe the link it above. = ) Oh, and I confirm his posting about the prize as it relates to TLE. Best of luck!

08-06 - BEHOLD! I have posted Chapter 1 of the revised version of TCE on my DA page (sinistersmirk) =)

07-29 - TLE UPDATE! Now I'm working on CTS.

07-01 - I would love to update relatively soon, but I've been away from my computer for a bit of time now. I hope to get back to it soon! It's driving me crazy!

6-08 - Expect a TLE update as soon as tonight or as late as tomorrow! =)

05-24 - TLE update!

05-16 -I'm updating CTS today! Sorry, TLE fans. CTS was at a really climatic point. I'll be working on TLE next... now that I've given CTS some attention. Hey, while you're waiting for TLE, you could read CTS, you know. nudge ;) Maybe?

I love readers/reviewers

Seriously, thank you so much to everyone that reads and reviews! Those comments that you make are what encourages me to write. Honestly, the feedback means so much to me. I can't believe we're well over TWO THOUSAND REVIEWS on TCE now. Your dedication has been a true blessing to me. :)

Also, thank you to everyone that has drawn anything pertaining to my work. I love seeing it. Call it a cheap exhiliration, if you will, but it makes my day. Keep sketching! :)

The College Experience - Backround Beyond the Summary...

This is an A/U story that takes place on a college campus starring our favorite pairings (IchiRuki, IshiHime, HitsuHina, etc.) and a few new ones that have had an overwhelming response (RenjElli, RangiKiyo). Don't be put off by the OC in the story, please. Believe me, I am hardly ever a fan of original characters, especially in pairings, in fanfiction. However, I have tried to make the OC (Ellie) as realistic as possible and with as many human faults as the rest of us. At least give it a chance, okay:puppy face: Please?

Zapenbits made a TRAILER for TCE! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeGCKTeoNeQ Check it out on Youtube!

Cleansing the Soul - Background Beyond the Summary...

Here we have an FFVII story told in the present first person by Elena (the turk). It will eventually be a RenoxElena. So, basically, Elena works for a resistence faction (opposed to ShinRa) called S.C.O.R.N. and they send her undercover to work as Reno's housekeeper. Scatter some details in here and there... and that's the gist. Let me tell you, the last few chapters have been amazing to write. It's heating up!

This story was nominated for a Genesis Award. I'm not very familiar with it, but I am honored enough to send some traffic in their direction! http://genesisawards.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=113 =)! Have fun!

Chance Encounter - Background Beyond the Summary...

So, I intended this one to be a oneshot. However, the response has been pretty good on the whole concept of it. I'm thinking about making it into a full-blown fanfiction once TLE is over. What do you guys think?

All You Wanted - Background Beyond the Summary...

For those of you Ellie (OC) fans from my work in The College Experience or saw her cameos in Zapenbits' When You're Gone and LovedotCOM, please remember that this is actually set in the Bleach world. So, she has a different history and doesn't even know Renji that well yet. Well, she does... but... I've said to much! Go read! :grins: Seriously, I'm loving what we have of it so far. Don't give up on it because the first chapter doesn't move much. Happy Reading, friends!

-> So, I would LOVE to see your RenjixEllie art/stories. Wouldn't it be awesome to actually get some exposure to this ship'? Already, like, six or seven people have been given permission to use Ellie for their stories. It's grand!

Random Plug!

Speaking of this pairing... the BEST GSD type fanfiction in the free world is 'Identification Number 004172' by Miss Peeps. Honestly, it is so captivating... you'll just... love it. Seriously, go read it. It's highly "outside of the box". Wonderful.
