Livinglife's Profile (Italicised font looks so fancy, don't you agree?)

I've been around here for over a year! Yay me!

PERSONAL PROMISE

I was feeling really bad, because I was remembering when I had just started out with a crap story I had thrown together, and how one review on the whole story lifted my spirits, but now if I get less than three reviews on a chapter I get depressed. I didn't even answer most of the reviews that I got. My ego had grown to big, so I popped it and decided to stick to a new policy.

1. From this point forward I will answer any and all reviews even if they are something as simple as, "Good". Because you know what? Reviews are the life blood of an author. We need them to keep our stories alive, and without them the ideas would wither and die, and since reviews don't write themselves that means we need you, the reviewer to review and keep the story and the author afloat. Thank you all very much. I appreciate your thoughtfulness.

2. Even if a chapter has only one review, I swear that I will continue the story. As long as I know that I am pleasing someone with my stories, they will continue.

3. None of my stories will be ditched, like so many authors before me have. As in number two, one person reviewing is enough reason to continue. Although I have chronic writer's block, I can assure you that none of my current stories are going to be dropped. It may take a long time for me to update but I WILL!! Please don't get mad at me for being busy.

Thank you for reading my policy.

STATS

Let's see, my screen name is Livinglife, but you all can call me... Livinglife. Not that it matters, but I'm a girl. Just so you know and don't offend me by calling me a guy, because, for some reason, people here think I am. I like to read, ski, write, sing, act, swim, travel, laugh, live, etc. I'm also a fan of Harry Potter, and have read all seven books.

As far as the future of my writing, the day when I go onto a forum for best fanfics and see one of my stories listed there then I can die happy. But hopefully I'll have a long way to go before I die.

I don't write slash, I rarely if never use swear words, and I don't write sex scenes. Deal with it. Although most of my stories are rated T, it is mostly just a safety thing. I'd rather write a story rated teen and have it be really mellow than having a K story and getting in trouble for having one part out of content.

My favorite pairings are Danny and Sam, Tucker and Valerie, Vlad and Maddie (before her marriage to Jack), or Vlad and OC. Canon pairings. Don't say I lack originality, I just like normal pairings. I also like the idea of Ghost Writer and Ember, a pairing that popped into my head one day that I've never seen. GW could write Ember's songs, and he's not a very stereotype man so she wouldn't get pissed at him like she gets with Skulker. They're both artists, Poetry and Music, and both could pass for humans. Cool huh? I like it. Go me.

Online Pallies:

Mistress Megatron: I know her IRL, and she's always great to hang with. Great Writer.

Scrawly, usually known as SomethingHeart: He's silly, and fun to RP with, even though I suspect he takes me for an easily annoyed person.

Kira-Ryuku: Called me cute, so he's instantly in. Haha, he is a good RPer, and is brilliant with dragon plots.

Spearofhope: He's great with plots, and Machinima too! He's the head of Random Squirrel Productions, and has made a wonderful little movie called The Strange Case of the Magic Helicopter. Check him out on Youtube! He's Spearofhope2 there.

And last but certainly not least! PnP: He's dynamite! He's an excellent RPer, and a great mod, and is just... great.

STORY GENRES so that you can choose which story to read more efficiently. Quotes that I feel reveal the most about the story are there too, in italics. But, to understand them, you might have to read the summaries.

At The Freakshow-First person POV through Skulker. A mystery. Sad, the history of why Freakshow's so warped, and where his staff came from. Lydia's history too. Challenge from Evilevergreen.

Something had been bothering me since the beginning. “Why are you showing me this?”

All that answered was the soft laughter, only now it really was laughter, and I could hear the sound of evil in it, of alternate motives, and dark secrets.

Confessions of a Locked Up Ghost King- First person through Pariah Dark. Angst, character death but not main characters. It's the history of Pariah Dark

A pariah: an outcast. That’s what I was. As a child I realized this cruel fact. My hatred towards the world grew as I did and it wouldn’t be long before I was consumed by it.

Count Vladimir- AUTHOR'S RECOMMENDATION! First person through Vlad. Completed. Mystery, Adventure, Vampires. Dark. One of my favorites.

“Skulker, you will regret this!” How could he do this to me? He worked for me!

“No, I don’t think I will. You will help me earn back my reputation as a great hunter. After all of the times I’ve been beaten by a mere child, a vampire would be one of the only ways to prove myself.”

I was about to yell at him when I realized exactly what he had said. It was the only way everything made sense, even though I didn’t want it to. Before I had been panicking, hoping that it wasn’t true, but Skulker had confirmed it.

I was a vampire.

Inner Child- AUTHOR'S RECOMMENDATION First person through Sam. Cute humor. A K story.

“Sam, please tell me that I’m not a toddler.” I said nothing because I was still too surprised. He turned his small face up to Tucker, and then he looked down at his small body again. “It was Ember wasn’t it.” I nodded and Danny’s eyes flashed green in anger.

“I have to stop her!” he tried to change into his ghost form but since he was only three he still didn’t have enough energy to do it. Instead he tried to force his way through the crowd. I grabbed him and pulled him back but he continued to struggle against my grip.

Then he suddenly stopped and I watched as his eyes became a lighter blue. He giggled cutely and then said, “You’re holding my hand, pretty lady.”

This was going to be a long day.

Invisibly Burning-First person through Ember. Sad, Mystery, Angst. Ember's history. Also a challenge from Evilevergreen.

Somehow, someway, I would prove that I was worth something, and the name Ember McLain would be heard across America.

Matchmaker Matchmaker- AUTHOR'S RECOMMENDATION Third person. Teen humor. Nothing dirty happens, it's just talked about. No swearing in any of my stories.

“You’re not regretting this one bit, are you.” Sam said crossing her arms.

“Nope. Not in the slightest.” Sam pushed him aside and read the profile. The screen name Danny had given Vlad was 1crzdupFL

“Yeah that’s going to bring in the dates.” Sam said sarcastically. Danny said nothing and she continued to read.

The profile said, “Hi, I’m a 40 year old man who lives by himself in a big old castle. I like the Packers, hitting on other people’s wives, plotting, trying to convince someone else’s son to be mine, denying I want a cat, and the Packers. Sometimes I swear out loud, including words like Cheeselogs and Butter biscuits. I’m also crazy, although I never admit it when certain people tell me I am. My high points are the fact that I’m rich and not much else. My low points are everything else in this profile.”

New Perspectives- First person switch between Vlad and Danny. Humor, Adventure, Mystery. Probably could be rated K+

Vlad's POV

I stood up and opened my eyes. The room seemed to spin around me as my head continued to pound, but I managed to figure out that it was very different than my usual room. It was much too small, and I didn’t recognize anything. I glanced at the clock on the table besides the bed and saw that it was only seven AM. If I wasn’t so confused I probably would have just gone back to bed.

Danny's POV

I turned and looked in the mirror at Plasmius. My face looked so serious and angry. I stuck out my tongue and tried to cross my eyes, but Vlad’s ghost form has no pupils and his tongue was pointed, so my reflection looked sort of snake like. This was definitely one of the weirdest things that had happened to me.

Seeing Double- AUTHOR'S RECOMMENDATION First person through Vlad. Completed. Action, Adventure. Was a challenge from Cellosolo2007. Another of my Favorites.

"My new life as a human was turning out to be more dangerous than my old life as a halfa."

Strangers- Third Person. Mystery, Adventure, Romance. (More adventure than romance)

“What you need is someone who appreciates you. Someone who would care for you, and wouldn’t insult you.”

Sam knew where this was going, but she played along anyway. “And who would that be?” she asked.

Eric held out his hand. “Hello, I’m Eric, age fourteen; I think you are unique, charming and beautiful.” He said this so seriously that Sam tried not to laugh. “After all, the cure for pain is most often love.”

Don't worry. Eric is not a Gary Sue, and not as perfect as he seems.

Swimming In the Time Stream-Complete. First person POV through Danny. Adventure, Angst. Some people consider this to be an Alternate Universe story, but I don't. It's along the same lines as Masters of All Time, but was written several months before the episode summary was on the internet. So Danny does go to another timeline.

I showed the belt to Sam and explained that it was made from the time medallions Clockwork had. Tucker walked over and looked at it too.

“I wonder what happens if you put it on?” he said. Tucker was obviously directing the statement towards Sam and I, and Sam grabbed the belt out of my hands.

“I’ll try it!” she said. “Anything to get me out of this party. Will you two help me with this or are you going to just stand there." Tucker and I both grabbed one end of the belt and fastened it to Sam’s waist. We were all suddenly struck by a feeling as if we were put in cold water and then nothing.

Timing Is Everything-First person POV through Danny. Sequel to above, and yes, you have to read the first one to read this. Adventure, Action, darker than the first.

My house was quiet when I walked in, and I was glad, because now I could sneak up to my room without my parents asking me where I had been. But the farther I entered the house, the more worried I became. The silence was spooky and I felt a chill go down my spine. A few seconds later I realized that the chill was caused by the blue smoke rising from my mouth.

I changed into my ghost form. There was a noise behind me and when I turned I came face to face with Clockwork. I sighed and knew that if Clockwork was here, then he had bad news. What could have happened since I had talked with him a few hours ago?

To my surprise Clockwork looked panicked. Usually he just looked bored. My eyes widened in realization. Something had happened with time that was out of Clockwork’s control.

Vengeful Acts- AUTHOR'S RECOMMENDATION! Very dark story. Angst, character death, torture. One of my favorites. Complete.

I stood up and looked over the edge now. How easy it would be just to jump and meet the same fate as everyone I’ve come in contact with. One leg stretched out over the ledge, but I pulled it back in. There was no other way out of this besides his death. I transformed into my ghost form and flew up, instead of falling down.

THE FUTURE

I've been working on a story about what happened to Vlad after Phantom Planet. I really like the way it's working out, but I'd like to get more done before I start posting.

I also have a VladXJazz fic in the works (ducks flying objects). Yes, VJ. It's doing pretty good too.

FAV STORY OF MINE (at the moment)

Whatever story that is in this section is the one that will probably be updated the soonest. This is a basically a self promo section.

Vengeful Acts This is by far the darkest fanfiction I've ever written. It includes character death, a quest for revenge, an odd couple, a surprise, a ghost powered teenager, a ghost powered adult, and more twists and turns than a rollar coaster. Just so you know I never use curse words in my fiction, prefer to do action over romance, and have a bad tendancy to give stories unexpectedly happy endings. What attracts me to this story though is that I don't think I can end it on a happy note. I don't want to ruin it, so you'll just have to read. Ha ha.

A DAY IN THE LIFE (or at least a few quotes)

JP: "This is the part where we crash and burn." Me: "Oh, we crashed a long time ago, trust me, now we're just on fire."

BA: "If we can't get these lines memorized I think we should just cancel the play and do two hours of interperative dance." Me: (starts singing to the original Willy Wonka Oompa Loompa tune.)

AA: "My locker's a mess in the making." Me: "Mine's already made."

AA: "Ah! The country music is making me play bad!" (we were playing badminton)

Me: "Why are they called footballs? They're not ball shaped..." AA: "They're more like lemons." Me: "They're like, footlemons. They're Flemins!"

JP: "I ordered a Baconater." Me: "You're a bacon hater?" JP: "No, this is a baconater!" My Sis: "Who's a bacon hater?"

AA: "If the director makes you kiss that guy, tell her... you have a disease or something." Me: "Like, I-Can't-Kiss-A-Retard-Itis?"

One Legged Hobo: "Can you spare a donation?" Dad: "Sorry, I don't have-" Other hobo: "Don't give him anything, he just wants to use it to buy crack!"
