Cherry Fantasy's PROFILE

Hi to every fanfiction enthusiast and Anime fanatic !

Welcome into Cherry's Domain !

IMPORTANT NOTICE (August 22, 2009)

Hello to my readers/reviewers (and to anyone else who happens to read this !).

Eh, no, I am not dead. Surprised ? After all, I've been absent so long that it would've been in your right to think so...

So yes, first, I want to apologize for that, and for leaving my fanfics on hold for such an unforgivable amount of time. Unfortunately, I don't really have a good excuse. Somehow I lost interest for a while, and after that life just got in the way... Right now for example, I'm studying part time and working in a Tim Hortons during the time that's left (they're working us like crazy in there, you wouldn't believe it !). 'Til now, I just hadn't found it in me to get back to writing... But that's about to change.

In the next few weeks, you should see me back on Fanfiction.net with new chapters and new stories. Yup ; my need to write as made itself known on many occasions lately, so I finally decided to submit to it !

But before I get back on that, I have to let you know that the status of some of my existing fanfics has changed. Here's how :

o0 CHERRY'S FANFICS : NEW STATUS 0o

x

"For you only" and "Sky high"

ABANDONED. I'm sorry ; I know I said that I'd never abandon a story, but well... I don't think I'll ever finish those two, and I often heard that if you're not going to finish it, then don't bother leaving it there. I apologize to all those who liked these fics and wanted a follow up... If you want to retake them and finish them, feel free to do so.

"Despite everything", "Itsumademo", "Ketsuen'", "Look at me with your eyes closed" and "Sweet tragedy"

PARTLY ON HOLD. I say partly, because depending on which mood I'm in, I might post new chapters for those fics as well. But you see, I'm in this serious "Gundam Wing/AC" phase, and so I'm concentrating on that fandom. It's really my favorite anime to write on... I can't help it. As for the 5 fics mentionned above, I won't abandon them. I like them and I want to finish them. It just might take a while...

"Lunar Eclipse"

STATUS UNKNOWN. As you may know already, I gave permission to xxBoysNoizexx to take, revamp and finish that fic, since it's taking me forever to do so. However, I really like it and it's quite popular, so I'm unsure if I should remove my version or not... I might finish it eventually. You could consider it on hold for now, and if I ever decide to remove it I'll let you know. In the meantime, go check out xxBoysNoizexx's version !

"In the twilight" and "Love you, stalk you"

WILL BE REVAMPED. Meaning that when I get some time, I'll re-write what's already there into something better before I get to posting new chapters... But new chapters WILL be posted after that.

x

Alright, that's about it. No changes for the other fanfics, they will simply get new chapters. And as I already mentionned, I also plan to post new stories... Yup, all of them on "Gundam Wing/AC". (sighs dramatically) I'm obsessed and beyond saving...

I hope some of my old readers/reviewers still remain, and that I'll get new ones ! I promise not to leave you all hanging like that again, or to at least let you know what's happening if an update should be delayed.

Back with lots of inspiration,

Cherry Fantasy

Minor infos about me...

Real name : Mélanie

Age : 21

Where I live : New-Brunswick, Canada

What I do : I'm a university student right now (I study Translation, from English to French and vice versa).

My interests : I love to read and write, and Anime (particularly the yaoi/shounen ai genre) is my great passion ! No wonder I ended up on FF.net, huh ? I also like to draw and to go to the movies. My little sin ? One word : chocolate.

NOTE : My first language is French, which I was raised in ; English is only my second language. Nonetheless, most of my fics will be written in English, although I will post a few in French eventually...

.: Pour mes lecteurs francophones :.

(for my french readers)

Bonjour à tous ! Vous savez, ma langue maternelle, c'est le français ; l'anglais est ma langue seconde. Alors si vous avez du mal en anglais ou que vous communiquez simplement mieux en français, n'hésitez pas à l'utiliser avec moi !

Voilà maintenant la traduction des petites infos que j'ai données sur moi un peu plus haut :

Vrai nom : Mélanie

Age : 21

Où je vis : Nouveau-Brunswick, Canada

Ce que je fais : présentement je suis étudiante à l'université (j'étudie la Traduction, de l'anglais au français et vice versa).

Mes centres d'intérêts : j'aime lire et écrire, et l'Anime (plus particulièrement le genre yaoi/shounen ai) est ma grande passion ! Pas surprenant que je me sois retrouvée sur FF.net, hein ? J'aime aussi dessiner et aller voir des films. Mon péché mignon ? Un seul mot : chocolat.

NOTE : Malgré le fait que le français soit ma première langue, la plupart de mes fics vont être écrites en anglais. Je l'avoue, j'espère ainsi rejoindre un plus grand nombre de lecteurs. Toutefois, je prévois poster quelques fics en français aussi...

Ben voilà, le principal à été dit. Si vous voulez en savoir plus ne vous gênez pas pour m'écrire !

AVERTISSEMENT : Je m'excuse mais le reste de mon profile est entièrement en anglais. Ben ouais, ça ferait un peu long si j'écrivais tout deux fois...

Salut à vous et bonne lecture !

(BACK TO ENGLISH)

MY MUSES

Well, I have two of them : Akari and Raiu (they're both girls, by the way). To make a long story short, Akari is very nice, although a bit weird, and Raiu is a pest who's always criticizing me and my stories. They're always finding me great plot bunnies though, so it pays to keep them around !

!! WARNING !!

As I already mentionned, I am a great yaoi/shounen ai fan.

(For those who don't know : yaoi and shounen ai are Japanese terms referring to maleXmale relationships in the Anime universe. In fact, shounen ai literally means "boys love".)

I'm a girl, I'm het, but I never had a problem with people liking the same gender. When it comes to Anime especially, I'm a fierce yaoi supporter. Consequently, most of the fics I write (excluding the very first ones) as well as those I read contain a considerable amount of boys love. I'm a yaoi fangirl and proud of it.

Just keep that in mind. You've been warned.
