Personal:

I don't update my bio much, but a few things I'll leave here on a more or less permanent basis for people, if any, who are interested:

I'm a computer/internet addict. I'm also a heavy reader, mostly fantasy and scifi novels, poems, short stories, manga, and fanfiction. Whatever I happen to like, which is a lot. I enjoy anime and drawing/painting/messing around in photoshop. Because of this obbsession with the visual, which has continued for many, many years, I've decided to become an artist/graphic designer, and I'm 2/4 of the way through University trying to get there. In the next few years, hopefuly I'll have a BDes. Going into figurative sculpture, and continuing with VCD and printmaking in the new year. This fall I took drawing as well.

My student art portfolio, if you're interested, is at finesse, a subset of the main site I run.

I write a bit, and there's a few things posted below. I write original poetry and short stories as well as fanfiction. Some are posted on fictionpress, and the fanfiction is here. Most of the original stuff isn't up anymore. I took down my personal site in order to focus more on the sites I was actually working on. What is up is old stuff.

As for writing here... It's fun, I can tell its improved my writing, and quite frankly, I am amazed at how many people actually reviewed... Seriously, I was expecting nothing. And now...wow, I have reviews! Apparently, people seem to like the stories. I'm glad; thats why they're here. For fun.

If you do review, I can take criticism (I'll just be happy you reviewed!) I don't mind if you hate what I write, as long as you state a semi-plausible reason why (apart from just saying 'you suck'. That's not really a valid reason, and does not tell my why I 'suck,' which is the main thing I'd be interested in. Pretty much anything else goes though.)

For those interested, if any, the account I have at Fictionpress, written under the name M. M. Mim: http://www.fictionpress.com/~mmmim

I also run Dark Gardens, a free layouts and graphics site. Avatars, wallpaper, and such - all original designs. I admire what people do with celebrity and anime images, but don't tend to use them myself. I've got several galleries of different work posted, with more being added all the time. Online portfolio, in a sense, of artwork. I am also located at Deviantart. I have a main account there, and a stock account. Come visit, if you like.

I think that's pretty much all I have to say for now...feel free to go visit the sites listed above, or the stories below.

Enjoy!
