About Me

Just call me Temari. You can figure out my age by the way I talk, or maybe you can't. I often use music to create stories. I make dirty jokes when given the chance. I can always relate a situation to something I've seen in a movie though I don't really like them. I go against the odds and enjoy challenges. The sky isn't my limit, the universe is. I have learned that you must overcome your own insecurities to achieve what you want. I aim for the top and want to be known one day all over the world.

Writing

My writing style. How do I describe it? I don't really write in a specific way, although I do favor dark!writing. I just have one goal: to write stories no one would expect. Things such as stories about characters you would never really focus on or write about. CC/OC stories with characters you wouldn't think to pair with OCs. Also, different takes on your average OC stories so they aren't the same old things. I also like writing from a different perspective on certain ideas that have already been written about. I also enjoy writing yaoi, and I may possibly write yuri. Probably stick to OCs.

I also want to write stories people can relate to and inspire them, to show them that things do get better no matter what your situation. I want to be different, and I want to be someone who helped a person through their hard times, even if it's only with my writing.

Expect the unexpected from me, in many forms and genres.

Updates

4/26/2020 - So, as of April 2020, I am back to writing fanfiction. I posted 6 years ago when I was a junior in high school, and now I'm a graduate student. Recent circumstances have renew my energy for writing, and I hope some of my readers are still around. I will be working on a co-authored fanfiction with Kuma the wolf alchemist on a story we started a long time ago. We had been writing an FMA OC-centric story called "Long Winding Road," but chose to discontinue it and write an entirely new story. You can check it out on her account, called Forged from the Ashes.

7/19/15 - A coincidence that it's been about a year but I felt an update was needed. I did take a break from writing, but I hope to get something out, most likely another chapter of Strength. I'm restructuring parts of it and the plot so I need to accommodate for the changes and plan out some characters.

7/17/14 - I am writing again, mostly focusing on Strength. I've got some of it planned out, and wrote some later scenes. If anyone knows anything about Japanese high school track and field (tournament season, how people advance, etc.), please let me know. I run track and field myself, so I know everything about American track and field, but no Japanese. I'm going to read Suzuka and learn more too, but if anyone has first-hand knowledge, I'd be grateful. Also, thank you to Neon Genesis for me inspiring to start writing again.
