I am a Christian.

Please no profanity in reviews to me. I don't swear in my fics, and I'd appreciate it if that same courtesy was returned.

NEW: There's no real excuse for the delay in me updating my stories. I have been in a rut writing-wise which has been mostly contributed to real-life problems. In addition, I have moved to South Korea and will be living here for one year because of my job. I will update when I can but I can make no promises about when. However, I do have good intentions and great ideas to progress and improve my fics, so don't give up all hope!

Notice: I've had a fall-out with a co-author and am now being harassed and threatened by him on and off this site. But I'm not backing down, my fics will stay my fics and will progress as I see fit. So if anyone happens to see any of Blue-Eyes White Knight-BEWK's (or any of his side accounts that he has made solely for harassing me) spam, false accusations, or libel, remember it is just that. Because of this I've disabled anonymous reviews. Sorry about the inconvenience, but if you don't have a FF.N account and feel you must contact me, use the information below.

About Me Randomness: I love anime and I love Seto Kaiba. I'm aiming to be a famous fantasy authoress. Yu-Gi-Oh! is my favorite anime, but I also love Read or Die, Angels' Tails, Bleach, My-HiME (the manga only, the anime sucks), Slayers, Vampire Game, The Dreaming, Alice 19th, and Fushigi Yugi Genbu Kaiden (top 10 favorites listed in order). I love writing both fanfictions and fictions, and I'd love it if y'all would visit my FP.C account. Because I was a writing major, I get tired of "fluff" reviews and in return try to give constructive critism when I leave feedback. I also am an amateur AMV maker. My favorite books are LJ Smith's The Forbidden Game, but I also like many others including Harry Potter and Charles Dickens. Besides that, I like hanging out with my friends and talking about anime. I've been to Japan too--I have pictures of it, but I'm only letting my friends know where I put them. I am in love with Seto Kaiba.

GX (what have they done to my Yu-Gi-Oh!? and what's this crap I hear about more raw garbage aka 5D!?). Did I mention I love Seto Kaiba?
