Author has written 9 stories for Kingdom Hearts, Digimon, and Final Fantasy VII.

A synopsis of Deepground's history -- essential reading for all of us who like the Tsviets!


Of "Never Too Late"

Since it's been so long since I've updated, most of you have probably guessed this, but I will make it official: this fic is on indefinite hiatus. I'm not yet willing to abandon the story (mainly for the sake of all those who have stuck with it for so long), but it's unlikely to get an update for some time. There are two reasons for this:

1. The story is in serious need of a rewrite. There is iffy characterisation, a variety of plotholes and just flat-out bad writing to fix. I have to rework the plot to ensure it makes sense/is believable.

2. I've lost interest in Vincent. I'm far more interested in the dynamics between Nero, Shelke and Argent, which is not really the point of the story.

I sincerely hope that I'll be able to return to this story sometime in the future. For now, though, I'm choosing to work on some different projects, which I hope will be just as enjoyable.


"There is always hope for any pairing. Some hope is fleeting and soon takes a stunning nosedive, but there is always hope." - MedliR.

I like a variety of pairings, and I'm generally flexible on the idea of who should be with who. I enjoy a well-written crack pairing, and will generally take a more unusual couple over a canon couple unless I really, really like the canon.

My favourite ship is Shelke/Nero from Final Fantasy VII, and this pairing will probably dominate my writing for some time.


For the viewing pleasure of those who don't want to wait for an update...

My Deviantart profile. Also has links to some really neat art in the Faves.

My Youtube profile. Containing a serious Seph/Gen, a semi-serious Saixene, and Shelkero vids of varying degrees of seriousness. Also has links to funny videos in the Faves. Enjoy!

Unhealthy, a beautiful Shelkero piece written by a friend of mine.

Fanart for my story Overformality, drawn by Foxygirlchan. It is amazing and gorgeous, and I have to fight the urge to squeal every time I look at it.

Blacklight, my Shelkero forum. Also a site for discussion of the general Deepground variety.


I, ReadingChick, do hereby vow to do my absolute best to finish what I start, and to honor my word to write something. If I break this promise, may I be forever afflicted with the worst kind of writer's block known to man and never again taste chocolate. And may I go to hell, have my toes nibbled at by guinea pigs, and all that other stuff.
