What should I say, I am an aspiring scholar, I love Ranma 1/2, I study mythology, and I love to write short and novel length fics, though so far, none have been fanfics, and I haven’t really done anything major in a while, I am out of practice and it’s driving me mad. I’m a skilled cryptographer, Know more about quantum mechanics than most physics professors, and I really love high starch and carb foods, I am a vegetarian (not vegan, I love cheese), and that’s about it. Two lines removed here as of 10/20/08. If you have read my reviews, well, when I bother to write a full one, I know I am often vague with my criticism, but I really don’t like to flame, and I do come from a family of editors and publishers (DAW books, get'em free), though looking at my spelling (pre-spell check) would suggest otherwise. Well, I hope I did a passable entry; I am pretty new at this, ciao One more thing, I found a very impressive piece that is not on Fanfiction.net (or at least not all of it), I have actually found several, but this one is worthy of singling out, the Just wont Die series, by Jeffrey "Oneshot" Wong. A Sensational Collection of Ranma X Over, I just finished the last of the ones that are posted on his site, it took me over a week and a half (I did Shampoo 1/2 in three days). Well, that’s pretty much it; I recommend the piece to anyone who likes Ranma. http://www.anime.sobhrach.com/~jeffwong/index.http If you haven’t notice already, when I update this, I may fix errors from older updates, but if I add anything, I do it to the bottom. As of the moment of the update, (June 16th, 2006th), I am officially open for pre-reading, I can easily dedicate 30,000 words a day, three days a week, (split over several projects preferably). I truly enjoy Ranma 1/2, especially cross overs, but may be pressed to do other series. I am very knowledgeable with the Ranma 1/2 universe, Dual PTA and YuYu Hakusho. A have passing knowledge of Sailor moon and Tenchi Muoyo, as well as a hinting of knowledge in most other anime, as well as a few manga. I am a stickler for avoiding OOC's in all but AU settings, that’s about it, contact me if anyone would like my help. Ciao (OFFER INVALID) Another random bit of trivia, their were thirty "redshirt" deaths spread out over three seasons of startreck TOS. If I get enough mail on the topic, I might be tempted to name them, (all those with names anyway, P.S., did I count right?) For the few people out there who would understand this comment, I am an Aspie, and proud of it. Other details about my life, okay, I have a dog (Shitzu) named Whisper, whom I love very much, and I take care of my older sisters demon dog, a yorky by the name of Teacup, yeah, I know, I didn’t name him. My home is in E.S.T, I go to collage, and their are few things that I enjoy as much as sitting down to a good book (or a nice Ranma 1/2 fan fiction). Two paragraphs removed here by my own voilition. Please forgive the run-on sentences, both in my reviews, and in my profile, I tend to make that mistake a lot. This is my first post from my BRAND NEW COMPUTER. I decided that I was tired of my old gateway crashing, and my internet connection from blowing out every time it rained, so I shelled out a fair amount of my money (3 months wages to be precise) in order to get a new UPS (my sister confiscated my last one for her own use), a new Duel core PC (3.+ GHz each, thank you very much), and to contract someone to repair my connection. If your wondering why I am saying this, its because I am very pleased with the results. I still need to trade out the graphics card, and figure out why the blasted thing wont stay in sleep mode, but otherwise, I am now quite content with my new PC. I have just set up an account at the fictionpress sistersite, and am considering posting some of my works their, feedback on this idea would be appriciated. I am having some security issues with my email server, and might not be able to check or respond to any alerts or messages for a little while, i am working on it, and hope to get it solved soon. And I hope that solves that, we shall soon see, in the meantime, feel free to continue to respond to my reviews, i am checking my mail again. ciao Okay, so i havent checked in in a while, just finished writing a couple series of short stories, mostly post-apocoliptic or distopian future stuff. i have a fictionpress acount, but i never got around to loading anything on it. ohh, just reread some old posts, and yep, i mentioned that before. traded my video card, but still cant leave the thrice cursed child of racoon to stay in sleep mode. its not laser mouse, i unpluged it and it STILL pops out every few minutes. at this point, i just turn the moniter off and forget about it. i suppose i should mention that my elder sister is getting married around christmas, yes, the one with the psycho dog that is STILL AT MY HOUSE, i have met the groom to be, and he seems nice. i would mention his occupation (its cool), but its something of a dead givaway for my location, im not realy that private a person, i just promised someone i would keep it under my hat, so to speak. uhmmm, i suppose i could make a passing referance to the weather, or the hostage crisis in somalia, but at this point im just trying to keep a conversation going, honestly, i havent got anything better to do. already beat fallout 3, fable 2 and Too Human, and dont have the budget for anything else. and i am putting off reading another harry potter fic. honestly, i cant stand the series in normal print or in theaters, but i tend to enjoy the fanfiction, its just that there seems to be nothing but harry potter these days. ive read every Ranma story worth its salt longer than 50k, and have used the search engine to death, so im just going off of referals at this point, IP82's and a few others at present (great work people, havent realy been dissapointed yet). okay, i suppose im running out of things to write about, uh, so, ciao i guess. what? two updates in as many days, i must be mad. well, i kinda stole this idea from IP82, but i figured i might as well tell you how i came across fanfiction, its an intresting story. well, i was at barns and noble several years back, just minding my own buisness, when i came across an anime box set that i had never heard of before, it was called ranma 1/2 (still my favorite), i read the back, and while a little disturbed at its content (i was still to 'americanized' to get it), i decided to give it a try. i didnt have any money of course, so i went home and did some reaserch. after about a week of reaserch, i came across a site, (Tannims bridge to everything, i beleive it was called), and was hooked. it actualy took me about a month after that to find ff.net, during which i found countless other small archives, read anything that sounded intresting, and moved on to the next (usualy through links), anyway, when i found ff.net, it was like stumbeling on the holy grail. i LOVE reading, i love books, poems, short storys, drama, horror, action, you name it, the problem is, im pretty much always broke. i cant afford to buy books with the rate i read, and i had long ago exauhsted the librarys near my home (and the three nearest citys). so it was like a match made in heaven. all the books i could possibly want, for free. sure, not all of it was good, but id bought junk books before, and sifting through the rubish sometimes got me a laugh on its own. about a month after i subscribed to ff.net, i actualy bought the ranma one half box set, digital dojo if im not mistaken. about two months after that, i splurged again and bought the WHOLE SERIES, Ova and all (great deal through ebay, paid about as much for'em as i did the first season at B&N. so now, i spend a good 4 hours a day on this site, and while i long ago ran out of Ranma (i believe i mentioned that, repeatedly), i still find plenty to read in the other catagorys. well thats it for me today, ciao | |||||
