•..••.. In a Nutshell ..••..•


Writing is my heart.

•..••.. STATUS ..••..•

STATUS: CURRENTLY ACTIVE.

*UPDATE 2024: READERS/REVIEWERS:
HHU’s completion is something I cannot estimate or promise at this point, though I work on it intermittently as I strive to overcome Creative Burnout.
The official BtB series was intended to end with UtS, andto this day those four instalments should still be considered a standalone series.


•..••.. WHAT I WRITE ..••..•

I tend to write across most genres (namely drama/angst) and I tend to keep it in the canon world. Humour is pivotal in most of my writing, no matter how dark a fic gets. I think that balance keeps it real (or at least I hope it does!). Yaoi/Het. I'm intrigued by human "character" - the human psyche and spirit fascinate me.

LIKES: Creativity, music, open-mindedness, philosophy, mythology, good conversation, nature, tea, passion and a good sense of humour are always welcome in my world. I make creative expression/ideas my playground. Simple things move me, the raw and the real. I love beauty, just a different kind.

FANDOM(S) I WRITE: NARUTO (yaoi and het), THE WALKING DEAD (slash and het)

IMPORTANT Note/warning While I write yaoi, I don't write it using the "seme"/"uke" mentality. I don't pigeon-hole characters' personalities by the conventions of a sexual preference. I like blurring lines, not defining them. I play with characters in the grey area, not the black and white.

Any feedback from those who are kind enough to take the time to read my stories would be greatly appreciated!
