Argh!

It won't let me make spaces up here!

So now you get pointless text.

I tried to put a Kirby Dance in here, but it wouldn't let me. Bleh.

Random stuff going on right now in my life:

FFN is being weird with links in our profiles again. Kinda understand why, but at the same time, why do they still give us the ability to insert links if they don't want us too? *bangs head against desk*

Moving on... I successfully completed my four original fairy art pieces for Visioncon and even sold two of my prints! *does happy dance* I've got a few more original pieces to get out of the way and then I'm going to do a whole bunch of sexy men, from Yu-Gi-Oh of course. I need to balance out all the girly I've been buried in lately.

Fanfiction info and stuff:

Evading Destiny (sequel to Retrieving Destiny): COMPLETE!

Preceding Destiny (prequel to Retrieving Destiny): Chapters one through three of the knights' story are ready to be edited.

Fulfilling Destiny (sequel to Evading Destiny):Still in planning stages.

Of Dragonballs and Duel Monsters: Chapter eight is finished and posted. Chapter nine is nearly completed.

My Moonlit Lover: Chapter eight has been completed and posted to Little Dragon. Rough drafts of the final eight chapters, plus two related one shots have been written. Have started posting it to my other accounts.

Misc: Been getting reviews on my old Dragonball Z fiction. Odd, but if it keeps up, I might be inspired enough to resurrect a couple of them.

Demon Blood (title may change) Still needs to be edited, but will probably not be posted anywhere but Little Dragon until I've finished posting My Moonlit Lover.

About Me: I'm just your average demi-saiya-jin with an active imagination, a love of writing, and a split personality. Gee, I should probably expand on this a little. Besides writing I enjoy drawing, singing, playing video games, and ghost hunting. I speak enough Japanese that I won't come off as a baka gaijin. I love getting reviews for my work, both good and bad. Obviously, I prefer good reviews, but flames are always good for a laugh.

Besides the times when my thoughts tend to split into my Yami and Hikari components, there is a complement of voices in my head(read: muses)at any given time. They are: Goku and Vegeta from Dragonball Z...
Goku: Ossu minna!
Vegeta: Hnn.
Friendly little guys ain't they? Then from Yu-Gi-Oh we have Yugi and Yami . . .
Yugi: Hello!
Yami: (nods politely)
. . . Ryou and Bakura . . .
Ryou: Hajimemashite
Bakura: (grins evilly)
Bakura where did you get those fangs! (shakes head) Never mind. And last but not least, Malik and Marik.
Malik: You're head's got an awfully big crowd of muses, Rose.
Marik: I could thin it out a bit. . .
(sighs) Marik, don't make me get out the net again.
Marik: . . . . . . . .
But wait, there's more! We've got a few new additions too! Seto and Jonouchi found their way in here and seem to be staying.
Seto: You have a lot of empty space in here.
(sniffs) You're so mean!
Jou: Aww, don't cry Rose-chan. We like having lots of room!
(pouts) Some muses you guys are. At least Sho and Judai are nice to me.
Judai: But they do have a po-
Sho: (still covering Judai's mouth) Aniki! That's not nice!
At least somebody loves me.
Yugi: Ano, Rose-chan? Do you know who that bike belongs to?
Aww crap. Not another one!

DBZ FANFICTION:
(I'll be honest here, my inspiration for writing DBZ fics was largely destroyed by having to deal with a long string of prima-donna authors and their legions of butt-kissing fans. Thankfully, I was introduced to Yu-Gi-Oh shortly after a particularly ego-crushing fiasco and fell in love with the series. Don't get me wrong, I'm still a DBZ fan and I'd love to finish the stories here, but I can't honestly say when I'll be inspired to work on them again.)

Meh, this one's been on the backburner for a loooong time. I plan on working on it once I finish Destiny Calls.

Well, I think that covers the bulk of them. I'm a productive little thing when I want to be, ne?

A word of advice: NEVER take ibuprofen when you've got Robitussin still running through your blood. The results are quite "interesting", to say the least. @_@
