Hi everyone.
About me...
Favorite books (series, authors, etc.): Dragon Lance, Tamora Pierce (especially the Song of the Lioness), Phantom of the Opera, Sarah Douglass (especially the Wayfarer Redemption series), the Dark Jewels trilogy, Julliet Marillier, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter (with the exception of the 5th book, which read like bad fanfic angst!), Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, and many many more. I have also recently gained an obsession with medieval literature, with The Faerie Queen at the fore.
Story Updates: I am now in college, and have very little time for fanfic now. I will try to keep up with the stories/authors I've been following, but both reviews and chapters will be few and far between. I am trying to keep going on several projects, however. Finally, I have 'finished' Daughter of Prophesy. It is still being worked on, as I am not happy with the style of the first half. Tale of Two Worlds is also on the cusp of being finished, with a maximum of four chapters remaining. I am rather sick of that plot, though, so I haven't been writing much in it. Shades of Grey is on temporary hiatus. In the works - I am planning a sequel to Daughter of Prophesy, and it now even has a partial plot! I am hoping to tie in the plot I hinted about in Mina Sue. Maiden and Fluffy continue to be on hold, but I hope to get back to both in the not too distant future. The good news is I have broken the writer's block I've had for Maiden. I have begun work on a Phic called Angel of Darkness, which is coming along nicely. It will still be a bit before its posted, however, because I want to go in with several chapters written. Thanks to everyone who has given me help, encouragement, and inspiration for all of these projects!
Muses: I have two muses, Fie and Sadi. Fie is my main muse. He is my rendering of the youthful Fistandantilus, and he helps me out with everything from term papers to fluff. We normally work very well together, though he occasionally goes on strike. Sadi is my secondary muse, and mostly helps me with romance, war and torture scenes. He comes straight from Anne Bishop's Dark Jewels trilogy, and is quite lazy, his excuse being that he has a life other than being my muse!
Literary Quotes:
"You are right. I do seek power. I will not deny it. But I seek more than power. I seek that which I will never have in this land. I seek freedom. Freedom to dream the dreams that are my own. Freedom to pursue goals that are my own. Freedom to make mistakes. Freedom to repent and freedom to forgive." ~ Dalamar in the play"Cast from the Light", in the story "The Players of Gilean", from Dragons in the Archives
"In that last dance of chances
I shall partner you no more.
I shall watch another turn you
As you move across the floor.
In that last dance of chances
When I bid your life goodbye
I hope she treats you kindly.
I will hope you learn to fly.
In that dance of chances
When I know you'll not be mine
I will let you go with longing
And the hope that you'll be fine.
In that last dance of chances
We shall know each other's minds,
We shall part with our regrets
When the tie no longer binds." ~ Fool's poem from Fool's Fate
"I know! I'll tell you all the secret, then you can tell me whether or not I should tell anyone. And if you say I shouldn't, then I won't!" ~Tasslehoff Burrfoot, in "The Story That Tasslehoff Promised He Would Never, Ever Tell", from Dragons in the Archives.
