Bio: I'm an aspiring writer who loves to share his ideas and stories with others. I've won writing awards for the years of 2003 and 2005. I intend to enter more contests in the future. I have taken several years of creative writing classes and I read creative writing books to learn. I like to write short stories, poetry, memoirs, and fan fiction, of course.

Fan Fictions:
-"Kagome's Loneness" (A finished story, 16 chapters)
-"Deceased: Kikyo's Lamentation" (A finished poem)
-"Space: Inuyasha's Yearning" (A finished poem)
-"The Eye Demon, Makoto" (A finished story, 8 chapters)
-"Possessed Kitana" (4 chapters up, see author's notes below)
-"Gone With the Food" (A finished story, 8 chapters)
-"Wanderers from the Well" (A finished story, 16 chapters)

Fan Fiction Extended Summaries:
-"Kagome's Loneness" is a completed story of suspense, action, and mystery. Kagome is suddenly captured by someone; that someone desiring the jewel shards' power, in order to accomplish his/her (I'm not going to give it away) grandiose and vengeful goal of destroying humanity. This original character is developed thoroughly, so that you understand his/her motives behind the vengefulness; his/her story gradually unfolds. Inuyasha and Shippo try to figure out how Kaede was murdered; other original characters coming to their aid. Inuyasha searches for Kagome desperately, and adventure ensues.
-"The Eye Demon, Makoto" is a completed short story of tragedy, loss, despair, and hopelessness. Spawned from an bizarre incident of Sesshomaru's eye, Makoto was born. The evil demon, Makoto, has slain and sealed tragic fates to all of Inuyasha's loved ones. Inuyasha is blinded by vengeance, and is determined to avenge all of them, by destroying Makoto.
-"Possessed Kitana" is an unfinished story of angst and revelation. Kitana finds herself lost in Outworld, wandering, and seeking out Shao Kahn, to finally destroy him. She is alone, stranded from her comrades, and travels Outworld in search of them, and herself. Shao Kahn also has new plans to finally destroy the mortals that are getting in his way: newer and more dangerous cybernetic robots. (This story is currently on hold)
-"Gone with the Food" is a completed story of questionable humor. Inspired by unwanted memories of a past obese science teacher, I've written this story in FF9 format. Zidane, Garnet, and Eiko attempt to capture the wanted food criminal, Quina.
-"Wanderers from the Well" is a new story I started that has many creative ideas going for it. This fan fiction I intend to be my best one yet. It has a little bit of all the popular genres: action/adventure, mystery, suspense, romance, spiritual, supernatural, and humor. This particular story will take a while to update every chapter only because I'm putting a lot of ideas into it, and also I am doing a lot of planning and outlining beforehand. This is a story of two strangers (who are original characters), who get transported to the Feudal Era of Japan, and meet Inuyasha and the gang. How did they get transported there? What is happening to the well's magic? Why does Kagome sense powerful jewel shards nearby when they appear nonexistent? Why is one of the two strangers having horrific nightmares? Will a romance develop between Sango and one of the strangers? What is causing all of these bizarre events? All of these questions will be answered in this new story of epic, mammoth proportion.

Author's Notes: Chapter 16 of "Wanderers from the Well" is up at last. THIS STORY IS NOW COMPLETE. Please read and review!

P.S. - I am finally back after a year and a half hiatus. I am determined to complete my unfinished fanfictions, starting with "Wanderers from the Well." I apologize profusely for this hiatus to my readers, but this time was needed. I am back, however, and in the form of a much more experienced, mature writer.
