Author has written 38 stories for Harry Potter, Yu-Gi-Oh, Inuyasha, Wolf's Rain, Diabolo, Tales of Symphonia, Digimon, Fruits Basket, Juvenile Orion, Ouran High School Host Club, and Anime X-overs. First of all, I would like to ask all of you to please REVIEW WHEN YOU READ! THEY LET ME KNOW THAT MY FANFICTION IS APPRECIATED. It doesn't have to be anything fancy. Just a small comment will do. Update: 06/01/09 - Here's my fanfiction project information, in order of importance: Updating Flames of War. Finishing the last two chapters of Crave. Finishing the last two chapters of Virtual Reality. Posting THREE different fanfics (all one-shots): War - Harry Potter; Well Kept Secret - Tales of Symphonia; Drops of Rain - Yu-gi-oh! Working on developing the story for Serene - The long awaited Sequel to Tranquility and Calm - An Inuyasha fanfic. Starting two other yu-gi-oh fanfics. Also, I wanted to let you know that I have a devianart page. My art has nothing to do with my fanfiction, but I just wanted to let you all know anyway: http://www.velvetkitsune.deviantart.com Here's my email as well--I really would love to have conversation with you all. I check my email at least once a day, so I will definitely respond: darkrystal03@yahoo.com Yu-gi-oh shipping list info: I know that the pairing list I had was really, really long, and I found so much more thanks to one of my fans: anna wilcox, who gave me a link to the profile of a writer who used to be here, LFangor (it's an animorphs thingy), who had the supposedly complete list with 444 pairings. However, the shipper's club at LiveJournal has a list that's 553 pairings long, so I'm now listing their URL. If I find a more complete list, or if you find one, let me know so that I can share it with the world, 'cause I love you ppl: http://community.livejournal.com/shippers_club/8416.html I am interested in composing shipping lists with applicable names for all of the genres that I write for. Please help me add to them. I will list information about it as soon as possible. I am thinking about doing it as a deviantart page, that way I can give everyone access to it. I know that sometimes it's difficult to navigate on LiveJournal, and I don't know how it works, so...I'm sure that it will be on deviantart. OLD ANNOUNCEMENT: I wanted to announce that the authoress that inspired me to better my own writing skills and major in English (with concentration on Creative writing), samurai-ashes, is leaving fanfiction.net. She says that she’s grown out of fanfiction, and that she’s going to go into more original fiction. I want to say, first, that I HATE it when authors/authoresses do that. I think that if you decide to become involved in fanfiction that you should do it for life. I understand that there are things in life that happen and that people want to actually be legally published and all of that, that you want an education, that people in your family pass on, that you may lose your inspiration. But I would suggest a HIATUS rather than leave fanfiction. Take myself for example. I’m in college now. I’ve been on fanfiction for almost five or six years. Things change. Interests change. But you can still connect fanfiction to them. I plan on writing fanfiction as long as possible, just so you all know. I might take a while to post things. I might be busy, but I will never QUIT, and it bothers me that people are doing that. These are people who inspire others with words. People who give others hope that yes, an anime ending might suck, but that they can read better. There is hope that one day, there will be a professional writer who began with fanfiction and knows how to do things right/the best way possible. Some of these stories affect people’s lives; they keep people from crying at night, they make people laugh right after a family member has gone. They parallel the lives of characters we love to our own, no matter if you like anime or movies or books, or if you like YAOI, YURI, or just regular HET pairings. Fanfiction is a way of life, of sustenance, and a lot of people do not appreciate it… Samurai-ashes leaving scars me more deeply than you all will know. There were times when I wanted to quit writing fanfiction, because I thought I wasn’t good enough. I was new and scared that I had no skill. I didn’t know the rules. I didn’t know how to write fanfiction at all. But she helped me. She spoke to me and counseled me and through reviewing and critiquing her fiction I learned how to construct my own, how to take ideas from seemingly nothing and spin it into a nicely themed one shot, or how to write a PWP and make it so enjoyable that it was acceptable. And when she reviewed my stories, I felt like GOD had come down from Heaven and personally held a conversation with me. You all think I’m a good writer, but I wouldn’t have been HALF as good as I am now without reading her stories. I read her livejournal. I read her Mediaminer.org stories (which were slightly better, as they were unedited versions of her works and I enjoy well written lemons). I told everyone I could about her. Half of my friends read YAOI because of her story Third Grade Logic, which is one of only two stories on this entire site that made me cry while I was reading it. I was rooting for her. I loved her, and she’s leaving now…I just wish that she would reconsider, just a little. She doesn’t have to start writing new stories. I would just like her to stay and help other people develop their skills some more. There are others who will still be reading her stories months from now. Will she ignore the ‘Review Alerts’ emails? Will she refuse to reply to someone who has taken the time out to give her an honest opinion of her story? I still feel incomplete in my writing skills, and I feel like there’s a hole being ripped in my artistic soul because after she leaves, I’ll just be some stranger to her. I will no longer be ‘one of her fans’ or ‘that girl who read her stories’ or anything like that. It bothers me that, in the end, I will just be a screen name on fanfiction. She doesn’t know my name. She doesn’t know where I live, and she certainly doesn’t know how she changed my life. When I email her, she’ll think, ‘who the heck is this?’ because in the end, I mean nothing to her. I was just a portion of a part of her life that is now over. I just had to get that off of my chest, because people quitting fanfiction breaks my heart. She was one of my favorite authoresses… However, to cope with the loss, I will be saving all of her stories as Word Documents on my new laptop to commemorate her memory. One day, six years from now, I will find her on livejournal, or I will go to see her when her original fiction becomes published, with a copy of Third Grade Logic in my hand, and I will ask her to sign it. And I will tell her who I am. And I will tell her that I am one of her oldest fans. And I will cry. Because I fell for her writing style and she broke my heart. I keep saying ‘samurai-ashes is leaving’. It’s a testament to my denial— The truth is she’s already left. “I will ALWAYS return, for I am the darkness…” | |||||||||||
