Best Friends:
Fan Fan Girl (http://www.fanfiction.net/u/844028/) - Probably the best friend I've made on ff.net. Always there to talk with me if I need something. Also serves as my partner in crime! This is one fine young lady indeed!
Hoshiko Shinomori (http://www.fanfiction.net/u/875809/) - Another fine lady that I've met through writing. An excellent writer and an even better friend!
Lloyd Irving Aurion (http://www.fanfiction.net/u/438756/) - Awesome inspiration to me and a damn good author as well. Respect this man!
Spiritua Masquerade (http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1070034/) - Yet another fine lady I've met through the site. A specialist in out-of-the-ordinary Tale sof Symphonia pairings, she and I are working together on a KratosXColette (yes... Kratos AND Colette... together) fic called "A Single Drop of Purity" and yes, I'm sure it'll be controversial at at least one point in the story. Please check it out! It's my first collab ever!
Insaneiac the Maniac (http://www.fanfiction.net/u/360447/) - One of my biggest fans and an excellent writer all rolled into one. I honestly think his work is FAR better than my own, so perhaps y'all should check out his stuff!

Tales of Symphonia Writing Projects:

Special ToS Projects:

Mysteries of Symphonia (general, mystery; collection of one-shots, numerous pairings)
Have you ever wondered "What if..." during any part of ToS? What if some events were altered, thus creating a completely different outcome? This is a collection of one-shot "What if?" stories, involving some alterations such as, "What if Kratos had been killed at the first Tower of Salvation" and "What if Colette never regained her soul?" None of the stories are connected, meaning you can skip around if you like.

Current "What if...?" ideas and the people who thought them up:
...Colette never regained her soul? (myself)
...Kratos was one minute late in saving everyone at the Tower of Salvation? (myself)
...Sheena and Zelos switched personalities? (TrueGamer)
...Presea never regained her soul? (myself)
...Lloyd was the smartest member of the party? (Lloyd Irving Aurion)
...Mithos finally agreed with Lloyd's vision of the world? (Blissey)
...Lloyd was posessed instead of someone else at Origin's Altar? (Story Weaver1)
...Colette betrays the party when she realizes that she can't have Lloyd? (J.G. the Master Gamer)
...Regal killed Alicia with his feet/legs instead of his hands? (Fan Fan Girl)
...Abyssion had beaten Lloyd's party? (myself)

Finished "What If?" stories (in order) and how many reviews each one received:
...Genis joined Mithos? (MC - Ver.2) - 43
...Raine knew how to cook? (DeadEdBoy) - 31

Next MoS:
We had a three-way tie between some of the ideas so I decided to cast a vote for this one. The next story shall be: What if Kratos was one minute in saving everyone at the Tower of Salvation? A tale that truly shows how every single minute of someone's life has meaning.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Other ToS Projects (hard telling which ones I'll actually choose to work on)

Ballad of Fallen Angels (angst/romance) (ZelosXColette)
Sequel to "A Fun, Easy Life". After finally getting settled into his new life with Colette, the last person in the world that Zelos wants to see shows up: his father. He claims to despise his son and wants to see Zelos dead, but is that the entire story?

Super Symphonia! (humor/general)
Meltokio Slugger (TM) in hand, Kratos decides to form his own band of super-heroes, despite the fact that Symphonia doesn't have any real need for super-heroes at the moment. How will this work out? (completely retarded sequel to/spin-off of "Kratos' New Sword")

Knocking on Heaven's Door (romance/spiritual) (Presoyd)
Because of the experiments performed on her, Presea has lost her mind, body, and soul. The only person that can help piece her life back together is the young swordsman Lloyd Irving. Will she find heaven with Lloyd or will she succumb to her own personal hell?

Innocence (Tales of Symphonia, general/drama) (very light Colloyd)
The heroes of Symhponia weren't always the great heroes that they are now. This is the story of how the Sylvarant half of Symhponia's heroes grew up together. Everyone knows that growing up isn't easy, but what trials will the children face in their years of innocence

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
