Updated June 25, 2009

I believe it's time to redo this profile a bit, since I've pretty much had the same one since I joined this site. First a little info about me to get out of the way:

Name: Heather

Location: Ontario, Canada

Sex: female

Appearance: The avatar photo is me.

For those of you who have been keeping up with my stories, you'll know that I'm a long time fan of Digimon, Harry Potter, and Kingdom Hearts. I'm also a fan of Shaman King, The Lord of the Rings (awesome books and my favorite movies), Final Fantasy, Namco Bandai's Tales series video games, RPGs in general, which will include anything with a decent cast and a good story. I'm also a fan of Disgaea, and the Pokemon video games. (Playing my Emerald, LeafGreen, Pearl, and Platinum games is one of my guilty pleasures, along with watching Canadian Idol. The only reality show I watch as I hate reality t.v.) As you can tell I love to write! I also like listening to music, playing badminton, skating, watching movies, and I'm a big reader of all kinds of genres. Name it and I'll probably read it. Here are a few of my favorites from some of my favorite fandoms.

Favorite Characters

Digimon:
Tai, Matt, T.K., Davis, Ken, Willis, Mimi, Henry, Rika, Kazu, Koji, Kouichi, Zoe, Thomas, and Keenan

Shaman King:
Yoh, Anna, Lyserg, and Len (Len's so amazing!)

Harry Potter:
Ron, Hermione, and Professor Snape

Namco's Tales series: Luke, Jade, Guy, Kratos, Zelos, Cress, Chester, Rita, Sheena, Tear, Zagi, Dist, Sync, Karol, Arche, Emil, Marta, Richter, Senel, and the list goes on...

Kingdom Hearts: Roxas, Riku, Sora, Axel, Zexion, Donald, Leon, Cloud, Yuffie, Kairi (not necessarily in that order but Roxas is by far my favorite!) I have a feeling Xion will be added here as well.

Final Fantasy

Setzer, Locke, Arc, Cloud, Squall, Zell, Vincent, Kain, Edge, Cecil, Zidane, Terra, Firion, Ingus, Luneth, Rydia, Palom, Porom, Edgar, Mog, Yuffie, Zach, Irvine, Seifer, Selphie, Auron, Tidus, Lulu, Paine, Rikku, Balthier, Basch, Ashe, Larsa, Penelo, Vaan, and various Cids.

(I will add more if I start writing for other shows, games, etc.)

Least Favorite Characters:

None. I think each of them adds their own little quirks to a story.

Favorite Couples

Too many to count, but you can tell Takari and Taiora from Digimon are obviously two of them! (and Mimato. Can't forget about that!) Others include Sora/Kairi, Roxas/Namine, Riku/Olette. Olette/Hayner, Riku/Xion from Kingdom Hearts.

Other than that there's not much to say. I joined ff.net not because I was looking for fame and glory, or even reviews, (though they are nice to get) but because I wanted to inspire other people to write and maybe even in some way to touch their hearts through my writing. I joined because I want to make people laugh, smile, cry, and above all else to maybe perhaps make them walk away from their computer with something to think about. If you ever read something I've posted on this site, I want to make you feel something. If I can do that through my writing then I have gone above and beyond accomplishing what I had originally set out to do. No matter what I write, I hope all of you can take something from it. If you've had a bad day, or things just aren't going right for you, I hope that maybe something as small as one of my stories can shine a little light on your not so happy thoughts and turn your day around to make it not as bad as it had seemed at first. Everything I write comes from my heart and by reading my stories, in between the lines, if you look close enough, a part of who I am is written in those words. I think that's the best way to introduce myself, and by reading my stories that is probably the best way to understand who I am, rather then by me telling you.

Not only do I hope my stories have a good effect on you, but also all the characters I've created in various works. All of the characters I place in my stories, whether I created them personally, or they're part of the fandom, I hope they inspire you and touch your hearts as much as they've touched mine.

Current Projects:

Following the Footsteps of Destiny: Ongoing project. I expect it will be a grand epic when it's done.

Trinity: Well, I will be posting chapters every opportunity I get. They might take a while, but they will come. Check my forum 'Digital Connections' for details. News concerning new chapters will be posted there.

Harry Potter and the Sword of Gryffindor: On hiatus for now. There are some things I want to rework before I start it up again, which will take some time.

Digimon Chronicles: The Demon Years: This is an ongoing project of oneshots. More will continue to be posted as I come up with them.

Also, here is a list of the FTFOD characters. More info will be added as it becomes a factor in the story.

That's it until the story moves forward and I can add more!

I don't have any other projects planned at the moment, but I am also planning a fourth Kingdom Hearts story which will be a sequel to The Way to the Heart, and The Eyes Of Twilight. I will post a note when it's ready to be uploaded.

Not much else to say. I could leave you with a thousand quotes, but I'll simply say this. No matter what kind of darkness might await you further down the road, never forget how important your choices are. We only have one world, which means we're all in this together. Always let yourself feel what you want to feel, not what you think you have to feel. Sora from Kingdom Hearts said it best:

"The heart may be weak, and sometimes it may even give in, but I know, deep inside, there is a light that never goes out."
