Who Am I?

I am still a teenager, still in high school and art is my biggest passion. I draw, paint and write with frequency. I've written several short stories, several of which were featured in Canadian news paper several times over the course of a few years. But that was years ago; now in Mexico, I have recently taken to literature again, writing several original stories and fan works. Finally reaching my peak in artistic activity, I have done over 3000 pieces of art, varying from books to drawings, with only a small percentage being publish under the Creative Commons law. I currently have a deviant ART page, where the best of my works is published.

I plan on actually getting at least one of my books published, and I am currently looking into publishers such as Hyperion, Orion, Knopf and Pocket Books, although living in Mexico makes establishing contact hard and getting an interview nearly impossible. It is my dream to have an original work published for the world to read, and this is but the start of it all. I am constantly looking for approval in my abilities, after several years of obtaining nothing but sarcasm and very 'opinionated' reviews. After a near 3 year-long period of artistic slump, I seem to have come back with vigor!

While searching for a suitable place to publish full length books and short stories, seeing as deviant ART has little demand for authors, I came across FFN. Although I have only been a member for less than a month, I have already began publishing an InuYasha Romance/Comedy story "A Twist Through Time" and have gained a small following. Reaching a total of circa 500 views and over 2000 hits, I am confident in my ability as an author, and an artist in general. I am currently looking for a Beta Reader to take on my stories, so if you are willing or know of someone who wants to, please PM me.

I take commissions, mainly for drawing or illustrations, I can do poetry and short stories too, but it is rare that I do, or even consider doing one. I WILL NOT write a full-length novel, for anyone, under any circumstances, unless you pay me for it :D All other pieces of art, including drawings, illustrations and comic/mangas, music, are free of charge and will be submitted to deviantART. That's it for my little advertisment XD.

Works In Progress: (NOTE: I have revoked my current rule of posting every Monday and Thursday. I am now posting when I feel like it and when my schedule permits me too. Sorry ;)

A Twist Through Time: My first ever fan-fiction, based on my favourite manga/anime InuYasha, its gotten great reviews and it's coming along great. My current and main story. I technically have 3 chapters ready for submission after every chapter I do submit. I will finish this, it's just my choice to make them come out once a week. Bear with me; it's pretty damn good, if I do say so myself. The topic is a Sesshomaru-Kagome pairing, highly popular, I see. I will do one that focuses on InuYasha solely, but only after this one's done. (FINISHED! AWAITING .PDF VERSION)

Conquering The Past: My first Zelda fan-fiction, based in the Twilight Princess universe, with the same characters and settings, (a sequel, although not directly after TP). I don't know how long I've had this particular story in my head for, but I only recently decided to start writing it down. However, it's much darker than I though it would be and it may take me some time to finish; it's not my usual style of writing and I tend to mess up, a lot, when it's not something I'd easily talk about. Features mainly Link and Ganondorf, and OCs as of yet, unnamed and unmentioned. (REUPLOADING AND WRITING NEW CHAPTERS)

H.E.X.:A fantastic original idea I had years ago, not a fan-fiction. I probably can't upload it here. This is one I'm looking to publish, for real. The story, (very loosely mentioned), is four completely different teenagers find they have powers granted to them by heavenly jewels, and must use them to stop the ultimate evil from destroying the world again. Actually most likely going to be a series of several books, at least 3. Book 1 is near completion, name The Awakening. Book 2, The Gathering, is still in (very) rough draft. Book 3 is named The Sundering, most likely, (MASSIVE REWRITE)

The Sin'dorei Conspiracy: My first Warcraft book, based in the Warcraft universe, featuring the estranged Elfin races, Blood Elves and Night Elves, mainly. Contains original OCs everywhere, and only briefly features in-game characters. I was hoping to get into contact with Blizzard Entertainment to see if I could get them to publish it, but so far I have been unsuccessful in finding any contact information regarding the books, or the publishers. If anyone has any information, please contact me! Vae'lynore and Arath'arn FTW! (WILL REMAIN UNRELEASED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE)

Blood Tracks: The story focuses around Kit, a man who wakes up covered in blood in a stranger's house and his journey to uncover his past, which he can't seem to remember. This is actually being published on deviantART right now, and only 6 chapters are done. It's similar to Sin City, in the way that it's writen. Orignally, it was only going to be a one-shot thing, not to be continued, but after receiving a very good review, I decided to continue it. Done on the side-bar, not likely to complete it any time soon. Has been put on hold until further notice! Sorry, guys ; (AVAILABLE ONLY ON DEVIANTART - UNFINISHED/DISCONTINUED)
