Author has written 2 stories for Misc. Books.

I never know what to write in these stupid things. I guess I should put what I like, hobbies, interests, stuff like that. But no one really cares. Well, they might want to know my name. Its Kyara if your wondering.

Aww, I'm bored. So your hearing what I like anyways. I like sports: soccer, track, swimming, kayaking, skiing (both downhill and cross-country, but downhill is funner), and badminton. I am basically obsesed with anything electronical, being on the computer all the time, listening to my MP3 player, or playing PS2 or Gameboy Advanced. But I also find time to read, my favorite 'hobby.' I love fantasy, sci-fi, and adventure. Weis & Hickman, Steven Brust, Robin McKinley, Brian Jacques, Tanith Lee, Michael Crichton, and Patricia A. McKillip are some of my favorite authors. I also love music, basically anything except for rap and R&B. Nightwish, Epica, Within Temptation, and After Forever are some of my favorites. Well, thats all, if I forgot anything I'll add it later.

Oops, have to tell you this: I don't usually post stories. I mostly critique stories I read. I hate seeing good idea mutated when put into words (what happens when I write). But I may paste some stories and poems from English (just for a second opinion, my english teacher hates me, no joke).

Done now?

No!

As I read stories, I like to pick out things that bug me. Here are a few as I think of it:

1) I must be able to relate to it. No matter how streached out. I don't believe in happily ever after. Maybe in theory, but everything doesn't go 'perfectly according to plan'. There's always a catch.

2)This falls (sort-of) under #1, but it is so important I state it again (in different words). It must be believeable, and it is not believeable when all the 'good' characters live and all the 'bad' characters die. That never would happen. I laugh whenever I read a book where all the characters go into battle, defeat all the enemies, and every single one of them lives. Yea, right.

3)Don't add additional characters . You can't just ramdomly have a new character appear in you book six fanon. And you exspecially can't have them suddently be a main character. If you need to, you can slip in a charater thet is a necessity for your story (like if the teacher in the last book retired, then you can make up a new teacher). But otherwise, no. Well, maybe if you have a story that is somewhere around 100 chapters, or 50 long ones or something. That way you have enough time to develope an additional character. If thats the case, go right ahead.

4) This is part of #3, but it deserves to be said loud and clear. No perfect characters (AKA Mary Sue)! You can't have this extraoridinary character who can do stuff everyone else can't and looks perfect and is just the hi-light of the story. Its just so unbelievable its stupid.

Is that all?

For now, probally.

Wait!

One more thing.

Considering this is fanfiction.net, I should put the kinds of fanfics I like up here. Well, mainly I read Harry Potter and Torchwood fics, with a few random others on the side. I ship (for HP) Draco/Ginny, Luna/Neville, Snape/Hermione, Tonks/Lupin, and pretty much anything that isn't cannon and (for TW) Jack/Ianto, Gwen/Rhys, Tosh/Owen, and pretty much anything that is cannon. Figures. So if you have any recomendations I'd love to hear them.
