New college, new pen name, same procrastination.
I write that which is easiest for me to write. For the most part, all of my fics of a genre will have the same pairing(s), because that is what I can picture in my mind. If you think I update slowly now, you wouldn't want to see what it would be like if I actually had to work to see the scenes I write ever happening.
On Romance:
From personal experience, I've determined that opposites actually do attract. When looking for a potential romance, whether in life or writing, two similar people will only exacerbate personal flaws. Instead, finding two people who complement each other works much better. When one lacks in an area, the other can make up for it, and vice versa. As for similar people of the opposite sex, I believe they work best as friends who understand each other. These are my views, and my writing reflects this.
Naruto:
I've fallen away from Naruto in recent months, so Survival Skills is on hiatus at best. At worst, I won't be writing in this genre anymore.
Fire Emblem:
My main genre, as well as one of the best games ever. I will be writing Sain-centric fics because he's just that much fun to write. SainFlorina is my favorite pairing, but I like any story that doesn't make Sain a complete fool. Unlike some people, I believe girls would like Sain more if they got to know him, as opposed to less. Although I seem to have built up quite a reputation as a SainFlorina author, I will be writing some other Sain pairings...eventually. I love Sain-Serra friendships, because I see the two as conspirators in the name of love, and their interaction is so much fun to write. I have both a C2 and a forum revolving around Sain.
Tales of Symphonia
One of the best games for gamecube. It is a must-have if you like RPGs at all. Sheloyd is my favorite pairing, but colloyd is doable (although, since these usually involve shellos, which I detest, I normally avoid it). I probably won't be writing for this genre.
Trigun
The anime that got me started, and I would recommend it to anyone as a great starter anime (the entire series costs around 30 dollars). I would REALLY like to see a non-canon fic pairing Vash with one of the other ladies he met (Dominique, the undercover agent at the mansion, the plant engineer, etc.) I love a good VashMeryl, but I'm just attracted to the impossible. Found one, it's now in my favorites (VashMarianne).
The majority of my fics will involve multiple chapters, with the exception of a few necessary one-shots, because I need to finish what I start.
My fics will all be rated T. Not because I plan on making them deserve the rating, but because younger audiences probably wouldn't understand my writing quite as well as older ones. The humor I tend to use isn't as straightforward as most :coughkilroycough: I won't write anything deserving of an 'M', so don't even bother asking. Even if I could write that kind of thing, I prefer to leave it to the reader's imagination ;-)
I've made some friends in my time here, and every single one of them is worth checking out:
TweekinTinkaToy: Awesome SainFlorina writer, she has two great Fire Emblem fics. A member of my C2 staff. Unfortunately, college takes up a lot of time and effort (not that I'd know anything about that), so it's hard for her to find time to write during the school year. Update She has found some spare time, and may start writing again!
raging hobo: A master of using emotions in his writing. Writes some amazing songs.
drunkdragon: Wonderful AU Naruto writer.
Songbird21: A totally awesome...well, everything person. Her fics are great (her view of the characters is unique and fun to read). She makes award-winning AMVs: I would reccomend them to anyone that wants to see a good Naruto AMV. She plans on doing lots of things with her fic, including a fandub, radio production, and a doujin. She plans on publishing her own book someday, so everyone be sure to buy it.
Kilroywuzheere: The author of my favorite humor fic. I don't beta for that, but I do help with his Action/Adventure fic for Link015's contest. He's one of the most fun people I talk to, and if anyone wants to see why, just ask me for our conversations: I saved them in a Word document labeled 'The Most Random Conversations Ever'. Read his fic; I guarantee you'll laugh. The humor adviser for the upcoming fic, Triblade. Also writing omakes for my upcoming Sain/Florina fic, Efficiency.
JSB: The other half an upcoming fic that may actually get written this time. Only time will tell. Has some amazing ideas, and isn't bad at writing either. Has a great Nils action/adventure fic (can't say that about too many people, now can you?). We brainstorm frequently, and provide inspiration when necessary. Currently writing a Sain/Florina arranged marriage fic and Blessed for Fire Emblem, both of which I highly recommend.
My AIM screen name is currently Soryuju24 (with MSN being soryuju24@aol.com), and I will accept any conversations until you give me a reason not to.
Yes! I got a hobo name. You can now call me "Ankle Biter King of the Midget Hobos." If anyone is interested in getting a hobo name of their own, talk to raging hobo. His SN is on his profile.
And, because I never remember to put it in my fics, I would like to present the...
