" Beauty is truth, truth is beauty," -Keats

Note: I typed in my penname into Google, and several accounts came up. Please note, that although I have joined several sites under this name, others have used it without my knowledge. (I'm not going to go ask if they stole it from me. Frankly, I don't care as long as it doesn't confuse readers or fans.)

Birthday: None of your business. :)

On Writing: I'm quite literally a slave to my muse. I publish when I write, I write when I muse. I have no given deadline for anything, which I can sympathize for readers, but quite honestly, I let the world of fantasy take hold of me whenever it seems right.

Recommended Fics: The High King, the Duchess, and the Secret; Walk this World;Disbeliever;The Life She Created;On the Wings of Storm; Boromir, Thou Shall Live; So What if I'm Jealous; The Once & Future Bass;By Will Alone; King Edmund's Crusade, and Untold Tales of the Mark: The Banishment of Eomer.

On Faith:I've learned a lot lately, even though I've been a born again Christian for several years already. I've always known you can't force someone to believe what you believe, but when you do show someone what you believe and stand up for what you believe: Respect them! Even if they don't respect you, respect them! I'll tell anyone that I'm not the best example for Christ's love, but I can try to be. Don't judge me or anyone, please, it's not the way to go. There's a lot of debate on rather or not to literally take The Chronicles of Narnia as an allegory. Personally, I see it as such, and I find it difficult to see it as something else, but I'll do my very best not to get hotheaded about it. :Remember: The Truth will seek you out, rather you accept it or ignore it, it will come to you. This is my story, yours is your own.

With much affection,

SpicyRoses

FanFiction News:

July 2,'09

My main computer crashed yesterday afternoon. Don't know why, and don't know if it's a virus or not.

I'm really hoping it gets fixed! As of now, I hope to update ISFNE, EOE, and MVPY soon!

A Bitter Taste of Crème de Cerise

Spotted: G with our very own headmistress, and with a guy, who looks awfully like R& L. B and C seen at a local restaurant while V and N are bound to get together again. They just need a little drama to fix the mess. (Gossip Girl. Will come out this summer, hopefully. Honestly not sure when though.)
