Location: New Jersey, USA
Fandoms: Star Trek, Kim Possible, and Naruto
Favorite Shipper Pairings: Kathryn Janeway/Tom Paris (Star Trek: Voyager),
Kim Possible/Ron Stoppable & Ron Stoppable/Yori (Kim Possible). (Hey, I dig strong ladies. ;)),
Naruto/Sakura, Naruto/Tenten, & Naruto/Temari (Naruto).
Website: JuPiter Station (The Janeway/Paris Fanfic Archive). The Station has been online since 1998, yet I have discovered a passion for Kim/Ron since April 2005, so I might not be updating the Station as I used to be as I explore my love for Kim/Ron. :) (Note as of March 25, 2007: It seems I no longer have interest in the Station anymore, given I have more interest in KP and Naruto instead of Trek in the past year.)

About my fics and writing style: I always believe that when I start a story, I should finish it. I don't do WIP (Writing In Progress) stories, given I don't see it as fair to the readers that someone doesn't finish a story due to lack of feedback, etc. Before I post a story, I write it up from start to finish. That's how I work. (BTW, I don't mind stories posted a chapter at a time, like G-Go's incredible "REUNION" and "UNION" stories, as long as I know the writer is going to finish the story. I don't like it when a writer writes a great story and just abandons it and doesn't finish it at all. That's rude. :( ) (Exception Note: There is one exception to my 'I finish writing a story before I post it' rule. If a story is too long, I might post up pieces of it as I write along. I know this is the WIP way, but I found out that my rule would make people wait for more than a month or so for a story when I write up one that is very long.)
Regarding the Kim Possible: The University Years series: Anyone who is new to the series, the KP: TUY series is a series of one-shot stories regarding life of Kim, Ron, and friends attending Upperton University two years after "So The Drama". Some stories are lone one-shots, while others are tied into story arcs. Pretty much it is like episodic television with individual stories and arcs all tied into a single series to tell the lives of the characters as time goes on. This series has first started with "Looking Back, Looking Forward," which was at first suppose to be a stand-alone one-shot. That story was inspired by Goofmore's art (link below). Yet after "Looking Back, Looking Forwad," my brain came up with further ideas for stories regarding Kim and Ron at Upperton U, and I had started writing up more. Soon after I started my second story, I realized I had created a series if I was going to write up more stories all tied together, thus I came up with the title Kim Possible: The University Years and since then this series has grown. I certainly am enjoying writing up more stories for KP: TUY as the characters (both from the TV series and original characters) evolve and grow together, not only as they attend university but also from day-to-day living and the occasional big events that happen. :) (Note as of March 25, 2007: Given I'm focusing mostly on "A Bond of Honor" and perhaps other R/Y stories, the TUY series seems to be suspended indefinitely. As of now, I have no idea whether I will ever return to writing for this series.)
KP: TUY series and Season 4 of KP TV series: As of the end of November 2005, Disney had confirmed that there will be a Season 4 of the Kim Possible TV series, thus the movie "So the Drama" no longer is the last TV episode of the series as people thought after it had been annouced in 2004 that the series would end with Season 3. With Season 4 no doubt having Kim and Ron still in Middleton High, the continuity of the KP: TUY series is an AU (alternated universe) from Season 4. Therefore, the KP: TUY series would not fit Season 4 canon. As the author of the KP: TUY series, if I see a way to fit a Season 4 episode into the KP: TUY series, I'll do so. If not, I'll not do so, so I don't want to hear any complaints or snappy remarks saying a story doesn't conform to a Season 4 episode. This series was created after "So the Drama" aired with the knowledge that Season 3 was the last season, thus how would I know Disney would backtrack and order a Season 4? I certainly did not saw that coming.
Regarding the The Reflections Universe series: Well, like TUY, The Reflections Universe (aka TRU) series has started out with a story ("Don't Look Back") which suppose to be a stand-alone one-shot. Well, some reviewers thought some follow-up stories should be written, thus I've written two more stories and made a trilogy. Unlike TUY, TRU have Ron Stoppable paired with Yori (from episodes "Exchange" and "Gorilla Fist"), and I found myself loving the R/Y (aka Rori) pairing very much next to K/R. I've written a fourth story, and thus I've decided this would be a series of its own. So expect occasionally stories from the TRU series to be written by me. Unlike TUY, TRU stories will be random in the timeline so I will mentioned when a story takes place. Just remember fellow K/R fans that TRU does not have Kim and Ron together as a couple. It's mostly Rori, so please don't read it if the concept of Rori makes you queasy. Yori is very rarely written in fanfics (or seen in KP fan art), and I feel it's a shame this wonderful character is not mentioned much at all. So I hope my TRU series will do Yori honor to show her as a loving, caring person I've seen in the KP TV series. :)

The chronological order of the TUY series goes from TUY Story #1 onward, thus it's easy to follow the series, for one just have to read #1 to the present story. The TUY stories will not jump around in the timeline. The only exception are the flashback stories when a character tells a story regarding an event in the past.
However, the stories in the TRU series is random in the timeline. It's still recommended to read them in order from #1 to the present one, for the first three stories establish the foundation of the series. Yet to give the reader the correct view where which story takes place in the timeline, the following list shows the chronological order of the TRU series...
- "Don't Look Back" (Story #1)
- "An Honorable Valentine" (Story #4)
- "Noble Commitment" (Story #5)
- "A Promise Forever" (Story #6)
- "Entwined Spirits" (Story #7)
- "No Regrets" (Story #2)
- "Full Circle" (Story #3)

I happen to have a Sheezy Art page, where I've posted all my digital KP fanfic cover art, collages, and manips. I've already have a large number of art done. Check them out! http://jupmod.sheezyart.com/ (Note: I used to have my art at DeviantArt, but they'd deleted them as of March 5, 2007, so I no longer have my art posted there.)

For anyone's information and curiosity, the following fan art, found over at DeviantArt and SheezyArt, has inspired certain scenes in the stories of the KP: TUY series and other stories:

(Note: I actually had written the scene before I found this art on DA. It's uncanny that the art pretty much described Kakashi's thoughts regarding the shinobi men being whipped by their kunoichi ladies. XD )
(April 6, 2008 - I used to have links to some DA art that had inspired some of my stories, but either DA or the artists have removed them. I don't know why in either case, but it's sad the art has been removed. :( )

I like to thank everyone who nominated KP:TUY for 'Best Series Overall' at the First Annual Fannies Awards (2006), hosted by Zaratan. TUY didn't made the top three, but least I'm honored that some of you think TUY is worthy to be nominated. Thanks. :) Check out the nominations and the final results (winners) of the First Annual Fannies Awards at the following website created by Commander Argus. :) http://intbike.com/fannie.html Oh, I also was nominated for 'Best Minor Character', no doubt for my The Reflection Universe stories with Yori. :)
"A Bond of Honor" was nominated for several categories in the 2007 Fannies, so I want to thank everyone who nominated my story. Thanks:)
For the 3rd Annual Fannies (2008), "A Bond of Honor" was nominated once more, and even though ABoH came in first place in the first round of voting to determine the final nominations for the Best Alternative Pairing Story, the story didn't won for the second round. Yet according to Zaratan, the votes were so close that the winner was separated from the other nominees by only less than 3 votes, so it's good to know ABoH could have won. :) Oh well. There's a chance in 2009 though. ;D
