Reading and writing are two of my favorite hobbies. I also play RPG video games and watch anime. (And a fair number of other activities, but they don't impact my writing as much.) Among my favorite authors are Edgar Allan Poe, Christopher Stasheff, Hideyuki Kikuchi, Dick Francis, Isaac Asimov and Ambrose Bierce.
Xenogears, Chrono Trigger and the mostly panned Saga Frontier are my favorite RPG video games, though I like most RPGs that Squaresoft has released. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is obviously a favorite video game of mine too!
Among the anime titles I enjoy are Card Captor Sakura, Weiss Kreuz, Vampire Hunter D (and Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust), Master of Mosquiton, Petshop of Horrors, Yu-Gi-Oh (and Yu-Gi-Oh Capsule Monsters), Nightwalker, D.N. Angel, Bakuretsu Hunters, Pretear, Fruits Basket, Samurai Deeper Kyo, and the first season of Fushigi Yuugi. Poetry is usually therapy for me, as it's a way for me to distill emotions I feel too deeply into a form a little easier to bear.
I'm still working on all 'in progress' stories no matter how long they've been static. My job is a stressful and hectic one, that sometimes gets in the way of writing. The best way I've found for me to handle the dreaded 'writer's block' is to keep writing -- something else -- so I write wherever the current inspiration leads. That doesn't mean I've abandoned any story posted here, just that solid inspiration (solid enough to spark writing worthy of being posted) hasn't come back to it, yet.
As usual, my head is spinning with stories. There's a crossover of two fandoms I've already written in planned, a trio of Fruits Baskets stories, two Petshop of Horror stories, a Final Fantasy VII story, two Howl's Moving Castle stories, half a dozen Pretear stories and probably a few others I'm forgetting at this moment. However, so as to not frustrate readers with interminably "in progress" stories again, no new (serious) story will be posted until it's complete.
The empty space between "Once upon a time..." and "...they lived happily ever after." (even when those aren't the exact words used) is my favorite playground. Play with me? Reviews, comments and critiques are always welcome, including negative ones, as long as they are helpful. Please, feel free to email me feedback on my writing, as I need all the help I can get!
Thank you, to all you brave souls, who read my stories. Thank you, twice over, to anyone who reads and leaves a review, or PMs me with feedback.
:many grateful bows:
Story Trees
Fifty plus entries here. Oops? When did that happen? To make matters worse, they are all jumbled together in order of submission, making it hard for readers to follow the fandom(s) they prefer. I love it when someone who finds he (or she) likes my writing in one fandom takes that leap of faith to read something I've written in a fandom he (she) is not acquainted with. I'm humbled and honored whenever a reader places that sort of trust in me, and those brave people are the readers I treasure most. Still, if dark, angsty half-vampires are your cup of tea, it could become tedious wading through light-hearted Card Captor Sakura stories to find the next Vampire Hunter D or Castlevania story. So, wonderful readers, I hope my 'story trees' can make it easier to find the stories you want to read. Related stories, or sequels will be presented in the recommended reading order, too.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Yami and Yugi
(Just a note -- I prefer to focus on friendships, family ties and other non-romantic forms of relationships in my Yu-Gi-Oh! writing. The 'soul-mates destined by fate' aspect of Yugi's and Yami's relationship appeals to me more than 'Puzzleshipping', so I generally view their relationship to be something of a younger brother to an older one, but one of my dearest friends is an avid Puzzleshipper, so touches may appear in some of my Yugi and Yami stories.)

Rivenheart -- Yugi, Yami
Rebound -- Yugi, Yami, Mahaad
Yu-Gi-Oh! Seto Kaiba
(Just a note -- :sigh: No matter how many times I tell him he's not welcome in my Musetorium, dragon-boy won't go away! I have to admit that my passive loathing of Seto Kaiba has changed toward something more like active irritation -- and an appreciation for his complexity. This is entirely Eric Stuart's fault, for which I do thank him. I urge everyone who likes his work as the voice for Seto Kaiba; James and Brock (and Squirtle! How's that for breaking your brain?) in Pokemon; Watari in Descendants of Darkness; Metaknight and Gus in Kirby; Les, Mad Mongo, Pierce and Pecky in Viva Pinata, as well as other voices for other shows, to at least take a listen to his music here: Eric Stuart on MySpace. Yes, he sings. He's got a band. And he's very good.)
