Quote: "Everything that happens to our historical and fictional characters actually happened to someone." -James Lincoln Collier

My devotion, is (no surprise there) to Legend of Zelda. I am in seventh grade in my middle school and am a semi-famous manga artist with the students. You can see my art under the same name (MalonAniku) at Sheezyart.com. I'm always open for trades or requests, so ask away .

My writing started in notebooks. My first fanfiction started last year, before I even had the game, or discovered this site. I had heard of it, (the game) though, and I made due with the information I had. That doesn't make me one who writes on assumptions, however, for my father bought me the Wind Waker after months of constant begging.

I am influenced by many authors, including Laurence Yep, Cornelia Funke, Robin McKinley, and J.K. Rowling; my heroes are Shegiru Miyamoto (I probably didn't spell that right), the creator and producer of the Zelda and Mario games and Hyao Miyazaki (no promises on that spelling, either), the director of 'Kiki's Delivery Sevice', 'Spirited Away', and 'Castle in the Sky'.

I like to try to make my characters more than characters, because it makes a better story and a somewhat realistic effect no matter how fanciful their adventures are; though, when it comes to LoZ, I think Miyamoto has started already.

The thing about Loz fics is that because Link doesn't have a voice or lines in his game, the writer has to improvise and come up with a personality and voice for him.
