A writer is a person who cares what words mean, what they say, how they say it. Writers know words are their way towards truth and freedom, and so they use them with care, with thought, with fear, with delight. By using words well they strengthen their souls. Story-tellers and poets spend their lives learning that skill and art of using words well. And their words make the souls of their readers stronger, brighter, deeper.
--Ursula K. Le Guin
The Quick and Dirty (HA):
Currently I am a twenty-three year old aspiring writer. Because I have absolutely no illusions about the world of professional writing, I am pursuing a Master of Library Sciences degree and currently work at a library. I have my BA in English with a minor in History and graduated from ASU with Honors. I am engaged and have two wonderfully perfect Yorkies who constantly remind me about the joys of life.
Current Works
Adhesiveness:
This fic focuses on the relationship between Kakei/Saiga and takes place prior to the manga. I'm not quite sure how long it will be, but I do know that I'm very interested in completing it. However, it may take some time, as I'm taking this fic very seriously and making sure that I only produce quality. I'd say smut will probably be involved at some point. Percent Completed: 15?
Girl Next Door:
This was "Until You", but I've reworked the entire thing and am much happier with the results. I'm planning on it being somewhere around 4-5 chapters, most likely with a lemon. Currently this story is on hiatus, but I do have plans to eventually finish it.
Percent Completed: 20
In Your Arms:
Part of the Legal Drug fandom, this is for the themes from the 101_ficlets community and legal_scribbles community on LiveJournal. It focuses on Rikuo/Kazahaya; however, it does contain some other pairings. This is one of those things that I write when inspiration strikes (which is rather often). They are full-length, sometimes very long but most of the time, short drabbles. Chapters can be read as stand alone, unless otherwise stated.
Percent Completed: 10
Grains of Sand:
Also part of the Legal Drug fandom, this story is currently on hiatus. I most certainly still am inspired to continue it, but I fear it will be quite some time until I work on it. This story is what I truly consider my child. Because I have doubts that CLAMP will ever return to this manga, I feel the need to complete the story myself. This fanfiction will be long, involved and concern all the characters, but focus on the relationship between Rikuo and Kazahaya. This story takes a certain frame of mind that I rarely indulge myself in. I have several betas who look at it first and I spend quite a bit of time outlining. All in all, I've scratched the surface so far, but intend to tell the story that we may never have the chance to finish. And for that, I ask for your patience.
Percent Completed: 5

Other Works:
I have many other works that I haven't posted here because of their NC-17 rating or I simply find them too drabblish (yes, this is a word now) to post on here.
