Author has written 14 stories for Monster Rancher series/モンスターファーム, Galaxy Rangers, Ranma, Sailor Moon, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Misc. Tv Shows.

Please check out the original fiction on my website as well. Also, check Fictionpress.com, although they are mostly the same stories.

Cover Art:

You may have noticed that I have begun posting covers for a few of my stories since fanfiction.net now has that feature. Since these pictures are extremely small here, I have links to the full size versions which I have hosted on my own site.

"The Saotome Sisters" - Color: http://www.phan.org/ryley/pics/SSistersaltcolor.jpg B&W: http://www.phan.org/ryley/pics/SSistersaltbw.gif
Alternate Pose: Color: http://www.phan.org/ryley/pics/SSisterscolor.jpg B&W: http://www.phan.org/ryley/pics/SSistersbw.gif

The "Alternate Pose" is actually my original concept for the cover, but I came up with the version with Akane sitting so I could show a closeup of their faces. I'm still working on the color version, but also have a link to a black and white "manga style" version as well. I'm going to try to hire someone I've worked with before to do the final coloring, but I am willing to accept offers to color it for free. :D

"The Experiment": http://www.phan.org/ryley/pics/phcolor.gif
"Dreams" and "Go Into The Light": http://www.phan.org/ryley/pics/pixiec.gif
"Match Game Monster Rancher": http://www.phan.org/ryley/pics/actingc.gif

Most of these drawings can also be seen on my site, on the fanfiction page. In fact, in many cases I link to the original pencil sketch instead of the color version since I think it looks better. So some of the images above aren't directly linked to on my site.

Character Profiles:

I have posted character profiles of all the characters in "The Saotome Sisters" here: http://www.phan.org/ryley/misc/CharGuide.html Please feel free to check it out. I have a comparison of the martial arts skills of the various characters there, and will probably eventually add an FAQ section.

Update: I've added a timeline of the Romeo and Juliet Arc that I came up with while writing those chapters of "The Saotome Sisters". While it's not really important in terms of detailing the plot, it might be interesting to some readers as an insight into my thought process while developing a story. Just follow the link above to the Character Guide, and scroll to the end.

A continuation of MZephyr's "Silent Horse". Just a short couple of chapters based around this more thoughtful version of Ranma meeting his mother. EPILOGUE ADDED: This doesn't really add anything, just clarifies a few plot points.

Ranma and Akane awaken in a hotel room with no knowledge of how they got there or who is responsible. But why does Ranma's curse turn him into Ukyo? And why is there ANOTHER Ranma and Akane in the room next door? Multi-universe crossover insanity. :D

A what if story. What if Ranma and Akane had gotten off on the right foot? Or... maybe they've just been fooling us all this time...

10. Revelation reviews
Something I wrote to try and wrap up the series after it was left hanging at the end of the Dark Moon series. I'm probably setting the rating too high, the initial scene isn't what it seems like. And it really doesn't have an ending

A conversation that might have taken place during 'My Name Is Pixie'. Yes I know there is another MR story with this name on this site, but I don't want to change the name of mine, sorry
