Konnichi wa! I'm Kiri no Shida, Fern of the Mist.

I'm a college student and will be graduating in May of 2010. Starting January I'll be student teaching! And that's like actual teaching so we will see how much free time I have when the new year rolls around.

I've been writing for years, but have never actually posted anything till Christmas of 2009 when I finally broke through my 3 year long writers block.

Tell me what you think of the stories!

So somehow I got inspiration to sit down and write my prequelish story for the relationship of Matsumoto and Shuuhei. Please bare with me because October is going to be a hectic month with my classes so I can't guarantee how fast I can get chapters out.

As far as Before the Battle goes, I only updated the second chapter casue I noticed a paragraph out of place and then the quotation marks missing. So no big change to that story.

As far as the sources for my fanfics, I like to stick with what the manga presents as the facts for the stories. I don't watch a whole lot of Bleach anymore cause I don't care for filler episodes and I don't have the time to sit around for 30 minutes and watch an episode. 18 page chapters of the manga can be read in two minutes with a good internet connection, and that doesn't take up too much time. I hate to call myself a puriest but I am when it comes to the authors intentions of the story.

I want to give thanks to kagero-tanaka, my Choca-pee, for giving me inspiration to sit down and write! I hope this motivates you Choca-pee!
