The fact that you're reading this tells me you have way too much time on your hands, which at the stats counts at something over 700 (go read some fanfiction people...um preferably mine) anyway.

Real Name: Petina

Address: Am I likely to tell you that?

The Reason Behind The Weird Pen Name: My goal is to one day be worshipped by chickens all over the world as their one and only female deity, which is good because it means the world is righting itself. (Just read 'the da vinci code' to become familiar with the female deity oh it actually has a good story though) And the other part of the name? Well I played too much of Super Smash Brothers gamecube at one point. Sheik is some shapeshifting-teleporting chick that sets people on fire when she teleports near them. I have pyromaniac tendencies.

Age: 18 (woot)

The Country I live in: Australia as in the land down under as in place of overgrown rodents and marsupials as in the place where no American will ever undertand us for our accents in the state of QLD where absolutely nothing save bad weather actually happens. cough

Birthday: 26th of July - Same as the damn Prime Minister of Australia - no need to really explain why I find that creepy.

Fav Animes: Fullmetal Alchemist, Kyo Kara Maoh, Trinity Blood, Black Cat and Gravitation.

Fav Book: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and I adore the Night World series by L. J. Smith. Also 'The Mediator' series and the 'Missing' series by Meg Cabot are pretty damn good. I couldn't forget the vampire books by Stephanie Meyer...

Other awesome books I have read: The Nightworld Series, Anything by Tamora Pierce, Bryce Courtenay, Meg Cabot (except princess diaries), Stephanie Meyer and of course the delectable Isobelle Carmody.

Currently Reading: Re-reading Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

My fanfiction: Used to be all completely and utterly random. I guess maybe I've somehow grown up and decided to write stories with a plot.

My Stories

Many of my regular readers will notice that I have taken down some stories from the list of ten. This is simply because they are stories I have no intentions to continue or have been put on hold. Another likely reason is I'm not happy with what's written and might plan to re-write it. In other words, it could be several months or even next year sometime before you see a return of them on my profile. I do apologise but there are certain fics I wish to finish and focus on.

Harry Potter and the Secret Chicken Coop

Incomplete, 7 chapters will take as many chapters as necessary to get through the second Harry Potter movie. Have no idea where this idea came from. Has something to do with pie.

Barely Human

My first ever serious fanfiction you guys should actually read this one - I'm rather proud of it! Looking at about 17 or 18 chapters including an epilogue. Could be longer but I doubt it. Basically the story of Elysia Hughes at 16 when she tries to bring her father back and the consequences. Need something other than one shots of this sort of thing. Partly romance, part action adventure - I'm exploring human nature as well for myself though I don't pretend I know anything on the subject.

Another Breathe of Fresh Air

A lovely little tragic one shot that I have turned into a three part story because lovely people asked me to. Involves the idea that soulmates may die in the coming war of darkness in the NIght World series.

Mum's the Word

I wrote this as a challenge for the lovely Neo Diji. Never believed I'd get that many reviews for a one shot! Short but I'm fond of it. I'm considering writing some more Roy x Ed in the future because I really enjoyed writing this one. I have an idea or two for the same challenge fic...will maybe one day get around to writing it but I think people waiting for other updates would kill me.

Smoking is Bad for Your Health

A witch who falls in love with a human against her will. Sad but humourous in a way.

Other stories, future fanfiction

I have other stories that I don't believe are really going anywhere but we'll see. I don't plan to ever really stop writing but I don't think there will be any new stories up for a while, especially since I plan on really putting some effort into 'Barely Human'.

Updates

FMA fans I'm not ever going to give up on Barely Human. I love writing the story and really want to finish it!

Chicken coop will eventually get an update as will the others.

I also co-wrote a random one shot with Conrad's Lover. Called Military Love-nest it's a random FMA fic with it being something much more perverted than 'Mum's The Word'. I also beta most of his stories because he has a strange infatuation with commas that infuriates me. Frankly it's not the only thing he has an infatuation with that annoys me. He knows what I'm talking about...

Fanfiction Interests

Harry Potter and Nightworld and of course Fullmetal Alchemist among other random things that I sometimes see on the 'Just In' column. Though now I'm mostly all Harry Potter and Full metal Alchemist.

Random Fact: I have since joining fanfiction.net, written 762 reviews (at the point of the update of this profile) and 86 or so of them are in fact for one story - "Watermelon Lipgloss" by Neo Diji. If you read FMA fanfiction and do NOT know who this talented gal is then you have either missed out, are entirely ignorant, are completely dumb or have lived under a rock since she began writing.

Another fantastic story that makes me laugh is "Making Friendship Bracelets with the Death Eaters" by Avada Cruimperio. God damn you girl - update. Everyone have a look!

Oh I cannot forget the lovely BadWriterOfRoyEd who isn't a bad writer. She's quite brilliant as well - check her out!

Anyway, that's my profile updated as of the 24/09/07, 11:03pm Australian Eastern Standard Time or 09/24/07 for you people in the Northern Hemisphere (honestly!). Will update again when needed, I'm out for now
