Forgotten Realms

On "hiatus" from Forgotten Realms (isn't that a goofy word?) for now because Jarlaxle and Artemis need time to recover from R.A. Salvatore's insane abuse of them. No, I'm not being facetious. They're really in hiding. ;p

What Ends Well: Friendship of Knaves is discontinued because Jarlaxle and Artemis don't feel like finishing it out. FYI: It had a happy ending. Also, at some point I will be returning and starting a new series.

I have returned with A Good Kind of Insanity, at Artemis and Jarlaxle's request for a do-over. But I can't promise anything much. I don't know what they have in mind as far as length.


Naruto

Hours: I will probably never finish Hours, because it is one of my first attempts and also flawed. I do still love writing about Kankuro and Gaara, and I intend to keep doing so.

Kakashi's Heart is finished. I consider it finished because the story is about Kakashi finally dealing with Minato's death. He comes to terms and grants himself some closure, the story is over.

Shouldering Responsibility: Still working on it. I have bits and pieces that haven't fit into a readable chapter form yet. I haven't given up on this story.


Personal Information:

I am a person. A real person in the United States of a certain age, and of the female gender. I am married, and do consider writing my life. Fanfiction is real writing. I don't think we would be on this site if we didn't agree on that.

Long live fanfiction.net.
