Notice: The Author is Officially on HIATUS!
No, this is not in response to anyone. To explain (which, admittedly, is about two months late), I'm currently taking an intro to short story class and, while I am Master of the Subtle Art of Successful Procrastination, I am apparently not the Master of Productive Multitasking. So, through December and up to January, none of my stories will be updated or (heaven forbid) worked on. I've not abandoned any of them, not even No Three in Teamwork which hasn't seen an update in coming up 3 years. So, fear not! I've not gone. I'm merely taken hostage by the forces of University and the Dreaded-Career/Major-Choice.
REPORT:
As stated in the fic summary, No 'Three' in Teamwork is now on Hiatus. It was too rushed, there was too little character interaction and exploration, and I just simply felt I wasn't putting my skill fully into the fic. I know I can write better than what I was doing, and I have made the decision to go back and fix it up to better reflect my talent. I apologize to all the readers, and I thank you for putting up with me and my inconsistency.
Contacting the Author (If you want to friend me, feel free. I may ask where you know me from, be forewarned.):
My livejournal: The Thoughts of An Easily-Amused Individual--Shiny!
~~~A "hidden" chapter of An Ice Cream-Capade can be found at my lj. Click here: http://ffjunkie42.livejournal.com/9941.html#cutid1 to reach the story.
Also on AIM, Facebook, and Goodreads, if you have an account.
General Warning/Disclaimer about my Fics:
For some reason, my Muses don't like writing canonical pairings. My Muses also love to root for the underdog, a.k.a. the characters most people hate or the ones who don't get much development in canon. In my MK fics, you will see A LOT of Stryker; me writing an MK fic without him is just plain difficult for me for reasons I'm not going to go into here. That being said, if you are aghast at what I write, don't say I didn't have a warning sign posted somewhere. Most flames will go ignored; if you really tick me off, I may deign to reply rather nastily. It depends on my Muses' tempers.
What I Do/Try/Am Going To Write:
Fandoms:
Buffy crossovers; one general fic written
Mortal Kombat gen and crossovers
Stargate crossovers
Final Fantasy (X and VII)
EUReKA
Firefly/Serenity
Naruto
Doctor Who
Eureka seveN
Misc. Movies (Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Van Helsing, lots of others...)
Harry Potter
whatever happens upon my Muse(s)
Genre:
Humor (sadly tends to lean toward sophomoric humor like the Leaning Tower of Pisa leans toward the side)
Action/Adventure
Crossover (Maybe it isn't a genre, but it aptly describes what I write)
Fic Statuses:
NEW Fics/Chapters!
To Be Updated 2008
In Progress Fics:
No 'Three' in Teamwork--On a major hiatus; see above.
Crash Course Parenting--Known number of chapters, main project. End is in sight.
An Ice Cream-Capade--Undetermined number of chapters, liable to go "dead" if I stop having ideas. Could have 21 chapters, could have 201 chapters. It all depends.
Dress Rehearsal--Will end with 18 Chapters. Is 2nd to CCP in terms of priority, but will most likely be finished before N3iT.
Rat Pack originally titled Late Notice--3 Chapters pending. If one went according to my habits, you'll think the author has left it for dead but it suddenly gets revived by an author who doesn't know why she can't get her Stryker-Muse to cooperate. You'll just have to wait on the seat of your pants.
Fics on the Fence: (could possibly be continued/have a sequel, if my Muses could just decide if they have an idea or not)
The Things You Do To Friends
Potential Fics:
MK ficlet and its sequel, one somewhat serious and the other less so. Takes place in the future of DOTR, on the assumption that 'Overthrown' was not the very last battle for the Defenders.
MK chapter fic, Stryker trapped hopping to alternate universes. Not quite as humorous as it sounds...partially.
Firefly ficlet. Was a song-fic to 'Hear Me' by Kelly Clarkson; now undergoing some serious rewriting.
Naruto fic, revolving around Kakashi upon the formation of Team Yondaime.
Naruto fic, my angsty rendition of Kakashi. I don't think I'm going to post it, unless I'm desperate for one-shot fics to post.
