Author has written 11 stories for Danny Phantom, Fairly OddParents, Codename: Kids Next Door, Jimmy Neutron, SpongeBob SquarePants, Teen Titans, Code Lyoko, and Xiaolin Showdown. I haven't been here...in so long. I'm not really who I was. I've matured since URtrip...moved on to other things. I'm debating on whether to just start a new account, and start over. But one thing is for sure. I want to start writing again. Ever since I started reading some fanfiction again...and my head universe gets cramped with all the Human XANA scenarios, sappy ZAGRs, and random bits of an original story floating around. I need some room. Though...when I put up a chapter, it seems limiting, because if I think of something that should of happened...I can't go back and change it. The events are never finalized. All my fanfics-most of which make no sense to me anymore-reflect this to me now. And I still have not gotten over my problem of not organizing my opinions when I write long paragraphs. So, beware and be doomed. I think I'm back, no clue how long it'll last, but prepare for a barrage of random crappy oneshots, the SP trademark 'stories that have a lot of promise and are never finished' (hopefully not, but probably so), and, of course, those sappy ZAGRs I mentioned earlier. I like sappy ZAGRs- there aren't enough of them (enough that are any good anyway). Those two were just MEANT for each other. They need to get past their own egos and see this. Or something. YAY I'M A SHIPPER. Okay, haven't matured THAT much. Yeah. -SP AIM User: TehStarPhan The Full story of 'Operation: YEEE', aka 'CHRISTOPHER PAOLINI'S BOOK TOUR! THAT I SAW!': Anyway, this is gonna be long. This little adventure happened on August 28, 2005. At 8:30, my mom, one of my sisters and I left our house and got on the train, heading for TOWN WITHELD. At 9:30, we got there. We got lost in the city before finding the Barnes and Noble. There is no line, amazingly. At 9:40, we enter Barnes and Noble. I get my copy of Eragon stickered to assure that it is mine, go and buy two copies of Eldest (with Mom's money :) ), and get those stickered too. At 9:50, we head into the basement, aka the children's section. We get seated in the fourth row, waiting for it all to begin. From 9:50 to 12:55, I sit. And sit. I read Eldest. My sister reads Eragon. My mom gets lattes. We go to the bathroom. I check my watch every two seconds. I got to page two hundred of Eldest. My sister gets to page thirty-seven of Eragon. With Mom's help. Having already read the prologue. We wants me to mention to Paolini that I write fanfiction, and ask if that's the best way to start in the field of writing. I get bored. At 12:55, some lady goes over procedures. At 12:58...PAOLINI COMES IN! Everyone claps. Flashes go off. I start a cheering (err...screaming) section.He's a lot shorter than I thought. At 12:59, he begins talking. He talks about the books and such. At one point (important) he talks about one time when he was playing this online game (Jedi Kinght Academy or something or other) and this guy came on using the name 'Eragon'. 'Eragon' kicked his virtual butt twice. Every time he did, a messeage said, YOU HAVE BEEN KILLED BY ERAGON. Hah :) My mom tapes this. At 1:09-ish, he begins answering questions. I ask, "That guy on that game, Eragon...did he know that you were you?" He says that if he told him, he probably wouldn't believe him. Idiot. 'Eragon', I mean. He got pwnd :(. At 1:19, he begins signing books. We get to him at 1:25.I get so nervous I can't say anything but 'Hi' and 'thanks', and forget to tell him about the fanfiction (PHEW!). Anyway, he signs our books. His signature is near illegible. I can breathe again, but still can't feel my legs. At 1:40, we leave. I am now in possesion of a signed copy of Eragon and a signed, FIRST EDITION copy of Eldest. My sister gets her Eldest too. I hear that signed first editions are worth a lot, so I now have a heirloom :) The feeling in my legs comes back. At 2-something, we get home. I recap the thing to Dad, eat a Hostess Cupcake (I didn't have anything to eat since 8, save the latte), and jump on the comp and write this. So, that was it. It was awesome. TV Shows That Are GREAT: Invader Zim (Yay sappy ZAGR! And I'm a big Skoodge fan. Maybe, if he comes to Earth, he could pose as Zim's brother or something...maybe with a better disguise...)

And Kyoya is teh luff.) Comics that are GREAT: Megatokyo (PIRO. PIROPIROPIROPIRO. PIRO BE TEH LUFF. And the best part is, he kinda exists- even though his real life incarnation is 37 and has been married for two years. Real reason I'm going to Katsucon.) Zits (I swear, having the name Jeremy is good karma.) Judge Parker(Guilty pleasure. I like the Raju storyline.) Mary Worth(Another guilty pleasure.) No Rest For The Wicked(Absolute beauty.
