Who I am: Shiroikami (or Shiro, or Shiroi... and occasionally Loki). The name has a story of its own, but it's one that I've been using for many years now.

What I am: I don't consider myself to be much of an author. I think feel like most of what I write is filler, and subsequently don't end up sharing it because I don't like to read filler and don't want to inflict mine on anyone else. I'm a grammar and spelling nazi, but that doesn't stop me reading stories with misspelled or misused words if the plot grabs me.

I am a loner and yet I crave the company of my peers. I am a student of psychology and a firm believer in fuzzy logic. I love to read and yet spend most of my free time watching television, playing video games or on the internet. I am a study in contradictions and often make no sense... even to myself. Isn't it a wonderful world when a person can be a walking oxymoron?

Happy Holidays everyone! I know, I know, it's been WAY too long since I updated that one story that you're all following. I'M SORRY!! Getting the last classes/grades I needed to finally have an Associate's Degree, plus having a full-time job kind of got in the way of my creativeness. So here's what's happening: I will finish "Misunderstandings", hopefully in the next couple of months. I just need to take some time to figure out the best way to deal with some of the remaining J/S scenes (I'm not particularly confident writing any of the other characters, but Hoggle was kind of important for the Catacombs scene and the lead-up to the Crystal Ball). In the meantime, on Christmas Day I'll be posting a one-shot, in "my" version of Jareth and Sarah's continuity (the one which starts with "Imaginary Friend" and ends with "Promise") called "A Dream of Snow and Moonlight" which takes place seven years after Labyrinth. Hopefully that will keep people happy until I can get around to finishing "Misunderstandings".

In other news - Thank you so much to everyone who has commented on or favorited one of my stories or who has added me to their Author or Story alerts! It means so much to me whenever I get an email alert from ff.net telling me that someone new has decided they like what I've written.

As promised, the one-shot "A Dream of Moonlight and Snow" has been uploaded. I wasn't so happy with it, but hopefully those of you who read it will enjoy.

Now I'm off to help my dad and sister with the giant crossword puzzle from the newspaper, so Happy Christmahannukwanzaakah to all, and to all a good night, or something like that.
