| Shadow's Mirror |
Author has written 60 stories for Inuyasha, Yu-Gi-Oh, Angel, and Pretender. Have you ever looked into a mirror? I mean really looked. Looked so hard and for so long that your image slowly begins to change? Is it still you or could it possibly be someone else, staring at you through their own mirror... I would like to thank everyone for reviewing my stories. Your kind words always make my day! A compliment fires the soul, a critisism fires the will. I accept both with a smile of thanks and an open review book. Mean-spirited flames will be passed on to Dark Witch and used to set fire to the Dark Magician's hat. Most of my fics are in the Yu-Gi-Oh! and Inu-Yasha universes, however I also have two based on Angel and one on The Pretender. No, I don't know how that happened either... Yu-Gi-Oh! Linked Stories My Yu-Gi-Oh! fanfics are generally separate stories that have been written so they can be read, and understood, without the need to read any of the others. Some of them do link to each other though, with eventsand sometimes characters occurring or being introduced in one story and mentioned in others. Together, these stories form the core of my Yu-Gi-Oh! fanworld. They are as follows: A New Beginning Hearts, Souls and Shadows Another Source of Magic The Shadow Library The Shadow Tournament A Life for a Life Interview with an Authoress is a special story that is set in the Shadow Realm and occurs outside of the timeline that runs through all my fics. It takes place during all of my stories at once and is linked to all of them in some way, but especially to 'Hearts', 'Source', 'Library' and 'Tournament'. Images/Illustrations I am a member of Deviant Art so all of my illustrations for my stories are in my gallery there. You'll find it at: http://shadowsmirror.deviantart.com/gallery/. Just click on the image to see a larger picture. My Website All of my stories are also available for reading on my website 'The Mirrorway'. My artwork (including illustrations for some of my stories), poetry and other assorted stuff is also there. The link is at the top of this page. Due to changes in the formatting allowed in stories on this site since I started uploading my stories here, some of the formatting in earlier stories or earlier chapters of ongoing stories no longer appears, which makes some of my stories hard to read. There are simply too many for me to go through and re-upload and for most of them there is no equivalent formatting available now, anyway. All of the stories here are also posted on my own website, in the format they were intended to be in. My Avatar I'd also like to thank my incredible friend, Vash is my Angel, for the wonderful Avatar she made for me, especially for this site. | |||||
