Hiya!

Name: Joanne (Jo)

Age: 20

Country: England, Louth, Lincolnshire...

(I work with horses!)

Favourite works to read: Final Fantasy XIII.

Hmmm... Well, welcome to my profile I guess... I never was very good at these sort of things, however I shall give you a bit of breif information about me...

I live in Louth, England, working with horses. Something which I absoloutely love, so for if any reason I disappear off here for any length of time that will be the reason! I love to write, and to sketch. I will happily sit for hours upon end drawing or jotting down novel ideas in my rather lengthy notepad :) So you want to know me further huh? Well, i gotta say, that's brave of you...

No seriously, i'm alright. As far as folks go :) I'm outgoing, so if you (for some strange reason) want to talk to me; do so without hesitstion. I wont bite... very hard..

My horses are most of my life, apart from being creative or whatnot. I have six lovely personal horses, which i compete all around Lincolnshire and the surrounding counties... The places that i go and the sights that i see occasionally give me a little spur of inspiraton, so my updates might be completely spontanious or just a little late :S. Bear with me, i'm a reliable kind of gal :P

My writing world at the moment settles around the world of Final Fantasy XIII, a game which I only discovered at the start of 2011. The storyline is excellent and leaves me with some interesting plot lines to choose from. I am a Light/Vanille shipper, although I do like to experiment with other stories as well, and other couples. I have a new idea swirling in my head for something different, so watch this space for a new story...

Oh and one more thing. Because i am so passionate about my writing, especially my Light/Vanille stories, most people actually ask me if i myself am that way inclined, you know, if im into women too... and the answer is no.

Actually im not, not that i have anything against people that are (as you can tell from my writing!) that might surprise some people. : )

I would really like to thank Faded Writer, for all your support over the past few months. Fear not, i shall battle on with my writing for as long as people like you still read it :) I'm honoured to have friends like you on this site...

Oh, one more thing! Im now, 'Officially!' A columnist! Equestrian Life Magazine has asked me... yep, me! To write for them monthly. Something i am both very proud and very excited to be doing! Igniting dreams for the future and all!

My Ongoing Tales...:

Journey to Freedom:

It was supposed to be an easy mission for Lightning, a simple goal to follow. She had to save Serah, one way or the other, yet as things start to fall apart, as the plan unravels and starts to go wrong, the pink-haired soldier finds herself falling too. But not in a way she expected... Set mainly on the world of Gran Pulse, spoilers from chapter 11.

An eventual Light/Vanille, but centers around all of the characters in one way or another.

* I'm now undergoing a complete re-write of this story, since i find my own writing style has changed so much over the course of this fanfiction. So don't worry if you have a little re-read and find some of the features a little different. I'm not changing the story, the story I like; I'm just changing some of the ways it's written and taking out my lengthy author's notes!

Because You're Here:

Serah was Lightning's world, everything that she had to fight for, the only one left after her parents died. So when she recieves the news that her sister has become a l'Cie, that her life has changed for the worst, can she bring herself to forgive the one responsible? Whether she wanted to believe or not, their futures were intertwined, in one way or another...

Light/Vanille. Set in game, before their lives were changed by the purge.

Completed Fanfictions:

One More Day:

Sometimes, it just takes something small to make us realise what we've got left to fight for...

Vanille / Light... One-Shot.

Unbreakable:

The bond between sisters, something that can never be taken away; no matter what the circumstances. Sometimes a subtle hint can be enough to open up the doors that have been closed in the past, igniting better dreams for the future.

Lightning / Serah. One-shot.

Crystal Skies:

Perhaps if that one little thing hadn't happened, things would have turned out differently...

Lightning / Vanille. One-Shot.

Works in Progress/ Upcoming Fictions:

Warriors' of Etro:

As the world crumbled, the darkness of Valhalla spread into reality and a dark cloud was cast across the world. Out of the shadows, Etro's guardian will rise once more, driven with the task of an ultimate battle for humanity. This time, Lightning Farron won't walk alone...

Final Fantasy XIII-2. (Some in-game spoilers...)

Lightning / Serah. Multi - Chapter.

Watch this space: Late April.

Well, that is pretty much my profile, it was about time that I updated it! (It only took me a few years!) If you got this far, I congratulate you! And look out for further updates, I shall have to make this a regular thing!

Much Love...
