Hello! This is my new improved bio!

This is a mantis watching the ocean.

(I'm a wanna' be writer with a fondness for explosions. I'm a terrible speller. Anything else literary to mention about myself?
Ah, yes. It's probably worth noting that I'm from the U.S.A., so my attempts to write English slang will be poor and possibly offensive. If you are a genuine English person feel free to correct me.

I very much respect all the authors whose (or possibly who's) characters I borrow for stories. I don't make any money writing, so please don't sue. And please stop killing off good characters!

I've started moving my stories into the new crossover categories. I don't think they'll be too hard to find. Of course if you've all ready found this page, your search is pretty much over.

These are the stories I'm working on... (I swear I'm working on them, really!)

Progress...

12-16-12

I'm still alive and still cursing at chapters that just won't be right. Blarg. I've got half the next chapter of The Truth Decays done, so I'll post the first half by christmas if it's still not done. Grumble Grumble.

Not Your Kind of Trouble (4/28/10) Chapter 3 is at 1300 words and growing.

Invert (3/20/09) Chapter 25 is at 4000 word, about 70 percent complete. The rest of the story is written out on post-it notes in various places of mystery!

Seeking the Incomplete Updated! go chapter 31! and it only took me 10 months! The next chapter is outlined 15oo words

A Village Hidden in Hope (12-16-12) 5000 words and about 3/4ths complete.

The Truth Decays: (12-16-12) Now at 7000 words and still not half done, may require parts A and B. Sighs.

For those confused people, the FMA story line in this cross over is the one from the manga, not the anime. (Sloth is a giant, not a water monster, Father is the villain not Dante etc...)

Hobo Potter, (3/20/09) Chapter 6 is at 2000 words, 70 percent complete! I read book seven and was like what the hell? But I've decided to keep this fic on its original outline, so it will end up a bit un-canon. Oh well. More werewolves for everyone!

A Well in the Dead Land, I'm stuck on a battle scene, in which there is far to much talking, revision is needed.

Scones Anyone?, Chapter 5 is being revised. I've had to replace a lot of dialogue with explosions.

The Demon's Design. Chapter 8 is 80 percent complete. Chapter 9 is at 100 percent. I don't know how that happened. Sigh!

On the back burner...

These two stories are stalled because of plot issues.

The Road Trip, (An HP fic), In Fire Lies Redemption (Another HP fic)

They've been on hold because I sort of lost interest in them, and the canon story line moved off one hundred and eighty degrees from how I thought it would go, which really tripped up the plot generating portion of my brain.

Completed work...

Twelve Bludger Quidditch

The Basement It's sequel is in progress...

Crumpets Aren't My Style. Complete as of 12/28/05 Thanks to Cat Feral and Hobbitfoot for the spelling assistance. The sequel is in progress too.

Wish list of crossovers...

Indiana Jones and Fullmetal Alchemist, they both fight Nazis, they both hate snakes, they both have father issues...it would be great!

Generation X and Fullmetal Alchemist, probably won't happen since the comic Gen X tanked, but they had a cool collection of freaks. I would really like to see Penance fight Lust, or have Chamber freak out Mustang. Maybe I'll get around to that some day. Jubilee and Ed could compare coats! It would rock!

Harry Potter and Starwars,I've got this cool fic planned out where Harry, as a dimensional refugee, meets Anakin in the racing circuits! Harry fights the forces of evil while working as a waiter. If it ever gets published it will be great I assure you!

Artemis Fowl and Death Note, Could a teenage master criminal with Elf allies catch a sociopathic genius with a god complex and a death god on his side?

Supernatural and X-files, Sam and Dean vs Mulder and Scully. The race is on to catch a monster and a serial killer from the FBI's ten most wanted list. (This would be set around season 6 before X-Files started going down hill.)

Supernatural and Firefly! Dean vs Jayne! You made fun of my hat!

Firefly and Alien, Shot down by Reavers, the crew ends up on a planet with even bigger problems.

The Relic vs Supernatural: Sam and Dean hunt Mbwun in the Everglades, with a creepy albino FBI guy on their tails.

Fullmetal Alchemist vs Supernatural: My big brother is cooler. No way. Yes way! My big brother traded his arm and a leg for my life. Well my big brother sold his soul for mine. Show off. My big brother is shorter than me. Mine too! We got off the wrong foot. Let's be friends! Do you like cats?

Quotes: (a lot of other people have them, so I suppose I will jump on the bandwagon, though not to excess)

Everyone forgets that Icarus also flew.

I believe Icarus was not failing when he fell,

but just coming to the end of his triumph.

-Jack Gilbert (Failing and Flying)

Do not go gentle into that good night,

Old age should burn and rave at close of day;

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

-Dylan Thomas

An ocean without its unnamed monsters would be like a completely dreamless sleep.

-John Steinbeck
