Author has written 20 stories for Inuyasha, Ouran High School Host Club, Grand Theft Auto, Elder Scroll series, Resident Evil, Gears of War, Fable, Dragon Age, and Mass Effect.

In a nutshell...I'm your typical anime freak. I have nothing better to do with my time than to watch, collect, and draw anime. Oh, and trade anime. There really isn't much more I can say about myself without mentioning the word anime.

But don't think that's all there is to me. I'm somewhat of a movie buff. I'm a flim whore for the classics like Gone with the Wind but I am even more a freak when it comes to the horror genre. I have many things that I want to aspire to one of these days. I enjoy drawing as well as writing good stories, so I'm considering the comic book industry. But I still need the practice so here's hoping!

Anywho, while drawing seems to be my strongest talent, I do, now and then, write fanfics. Granted, most of them are not the greatest things in creation. But I do have my moments and even I have to brag. One more thing: I am a complete sucker for shojo! It's my drug of choice, I'm afriad. I find myself drooling over mangas were the general plot is mainly focused on six guys and one girl. I can't help it, but that the kind of stuff that just makes me melt. Hey! Who doesn't enjoy a fair-hair bishouen every now and then?

I am also archieve mod over the Dragon Age community - Royal Bastard - Coulistair (Cousland/Alistair). Very proud of my job! Thank you impsy!

One thing that I do want to clarify is that I'm notorious for starting fanfictions and updating them in a months time. Sometimes, depending on my moods or what I am into, updates take even longer. Other times, I abandon my projects do to lack of interest from either myself or my readers. It sucks, I know, I admit that. I hate that I do that, especially to those who post reviews and wait for me to put a new chapter. I do apologize for that. I know that my work habits need some improvement. But if there's one thing I do swear on, it's that I always finish what I start. It make take me a long time to post new chapters, but that doesn't mean I'm not working on them. I'm a multi-task kind of person so even with all my stories being a work-in-process, I'm working on all of them. I'm usually just waiting for the right thing to inspire me.
