--Thank you to everyone that actually has read and/or reviewed my stories, that is just amazing to me and watching those numbers climb just makes me ridiculously happy, so thanks a lot :)

A little about me, in case you care:

I live in Oregon, and I am on disability and have been for years because of chronic pain. Anywho, I am a writer and that's who I am so I can't fight it because when I don't write I feel like a piece of me is dead and that's not good either. So I write whenever inspiration strikes. As long as I'm able to write and I enjoy it and it gives me a little peace, I will keep doing it even if all my work really sucked, which hopefully it doesn't.
I blame my early discovery and continued love of cheesy romance novels for my love of fanfiction.That's also the approach I take to my stories rated Mature, I like stories that are in the romance novel style of fluffy fantasy, terms that almost cross the line into purple prose, and heroes that you know are too perfect to really exist, but you keep reading anyway because you wish it could be real, and that's the approach I tend to take with my 'love scenes' as well.

My favorite fandoms include, but are not restricted to:
Jane Austen; P&P especially (as I am about as obsessive as an Austenite can get), Labyrinth (JarethxSarah of course), Gargoyles(GoliathxElisa, BrooklynxKatana/Sata), Forever Knight (NickxNat), X-Men (GambitxRogue ftw), World of Warcraft; For the Horde! (HordexAlliance, shammys ftw), InuYasha (InuYashaxKagome, SesshomaruxKagome, SesshomaruxRin, MirokuxSango...the list goes on), Howl's Moving Castle (book more than anime, but both are good), WoD (Vampire or Werewolf mostly), Wolf's Rain (KibaxCheza), Witch Hunter Robin (RobinxAmon), Bleach (IchigoxRukio, ShunsuixNanao, ByakuyaxHisana...or anyone really, RukiaxRenji, OrihimexUryu), Star Wars (almost any really), Blood and Chocolate (The BOOK, the movie is a disgrace with a completely different plot, VivianxGabriel, of course), Black Blood Brothers (JiroxMimiko, ZelmanxAnyone), Harry Potter (canon pairings), Twilight (canon pairings), several other movies, tv shows, animes/mangas and comics/graphic novels, too many to name...

Sidenotes/Random Last Minute Thoughts:
--I use the term 'youkai' in my InuYasha fics, and not demon(s) because in Japanese terms they aren't...they're just another supernatural race from another culture...I like to put it this way; that Ireland has the Sidhe, England has the Fae, and Japan has the Youkai, and that is the reason I use the Japanese terms, albeit the Anglicized versions of them, and not the English dubbed words even though I don't know much of any Japanese...
--Also, it bugs me when people call Sesshomaru's Mokomoko his tail, it is not his tail, it is not actually a part of him, it is an heirloom pelt that he has like his father's, it's kinda like Byakuya's scarf from his grandpa (Bleach) to show that he has the rank, and it moves with a mind of it's own and where he wants it too...NOT HIS TAIL!! he's a daiyoukai, he doesn't have a tail, he has two forms so he doesn't need one in both...
--One of my biggest pet peeves, I really don't like it, is when people leave their fics unfinished for years at a time without even mentioning anywhere that the story is going to remain unfinished, or on hold indefinitely...but even worse, is when people change their story to the Complete category when it really isn't just to get more readers, that really sucks...and hence why I will not post any of my stories until they are completely written...
--It also bugs me when authors threaten to not finish their fics unless they get a certain amount of reviews or beg for them as well...yeah, I love getting reviews, but I'm not going to force you to give me one, I'd rather you liked it enough to to it on your own...for me it's all about the writing, I write because there is a God-given creativeness and something I can't entirely explain, within me that needs to be expressed through words and I feel less myself when I don't...It's a completely personal experience most of the time so to me as long as it gets done the way I want it I'm happy, which is one of the reason I didn't actually publish my own fics on here until years of courage gathering...

I really didn't need another Fandom to write for, but I completely blame my obsession with bleach and Celulind's art on deviantArt, here is the link for the ones that mostly inspired my newest story, "The Other Side of Him" :

- "Yare, Yare, Nanao-chan" - http:///d2t4wme
- "My Ruining" - http:///d2ujpzk

- "Tonight: - http:///d328phq

And many more...

Here is a link to a very rough idea I had for Jareth's father's pendant in my story "If You Turn It This Way" :

and yeah, that's about it for now...
