![]() Author has written 15 stories for Inuyasha, Doctor Who, Homestuck, and Great Gatsby. All right, time for a revamp. My name is vivaciousWordsmith (formerly baneofshadow) and I am crazy about writing. Like, ridiculously crazy. I am so crazy about writing that I'm majoring in Creative Writing. (Cue gigantic gasp.) This is how I show my love for my favorite series, e.g. Doctor Who, InuYasha and Homestuck. I am incredibly friendly, so don't hesitate to send me a message! Whether you found a typo, you have an idea or you just want to talk, I will always try to answer if you message me. UPDATE: For those of you who would like to see my awesome but ridiculously shrunken fanfic covers as they were meant to be seen, look for me on Photobucket. I have the same username and everything. (If you want to download something, that's okay, but you have to ask me first). UPDATE UPDATE: If you haven't guessed by the above statement, I will be starting college in August, so I won't be able to post as many chapters as I used to. This does not mean that I am no longer updating or have abandoned my stories; my priorites are shifting big time. Tall Tails was recently awarded 3rd Place Best In-Character (for InuYasha's character) by the Feudal Association. Forget Me Not was awarded 2nd Place Best Drama by Born For Each Other, and was awarded 3rd Place by the Feudal Association...for Best Drama. (Methinks Forget Me Not might be a wee bit dramatic). In Nomine Patris was nominated for Best In-Character by the Feudal Association, but did not win. For those of you who read my InuYasha fanfics, here is a general glossary of the Japanese words I use in my stories (story specific words will be defined in the chapters they first appear in, not here). hanyou: half demon miko: priestess houshi: monk bouzou: monk youkai: demon youkai-taijiya: demon slayer mononoke: monster-spirit kitsune: fox demon nekomata: cat demon youki: demon aura reiki: holy aura ofuda: sealing scroll (the thing with all the squiggles on it) Shakujou: Miroku's staff Kaze-no-Kizu: Wind Scar Bakuryuha: Backlash Wave Koungousouha: Adamant Barrage haori: Inu's outer red shirt (or Kikyou's white shirt) kosode: Inu's inner cream shirt hakama: pants ikitabi: socks Nirvana: Heaven baka: stupid, fool ōkami: wolf kami: god, spirit shouki: miasma kusarigama: chain-scythe Shikon-no-Tama: Sacred Jewel, Jewel of Four Souls, etc. shikon-no-kakera: jewel shards If you guys find anything I've missed that appears/might appear in more of my InuYasha stories, please message me! |
