Author has written 3 stories for Naruto. Hello! Heya, I'm Kitsmits. Piano teacher by day; writer, artist, foodie, and consumer of many a fiction (and fanfiction) genre by all other times. Lover of fuzzy creatures. Hobbit ninja. Things I like: the Harry Potter series (huge influence), Naruto (obviously), Death Note, Fullmetal Alchemist (2003 and Brotherhood), Berserk, most Joss Whedon shows, Avatar: Last Airbender and Legend of Korra...I know there's more... Podcasts: Lore, Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me! (...I need to catch up on this one), Welcome to Night Vale, Myths & Legends Current Project: To Unravel the Night: Story of my OC, Kaiya, and her life as a Shinobi. TUtN is rated "M" mainly for adult themes and occasionally graphic violence and citrus. Writing TUtN involves a LOT of research - rereading manga chapters, rewatching episodes, browsing Narutopedia...as well as other research. Thanks to this story, I've learned about trigrams and hexagrams in traditional Chinese fortune telling; the symbolism in the Five Elements in Chinese mythology; Japanese folklore and legends; Buddhism and Hinduism; mandalas, vantras; I read most of the Art of War by Lao Tsu...the list goes on. I became invested in learning all of it because of this story, and I imagine the list will only grow as the story continues. And now I'm rewriting the thing. Yup. I try to answer all reviews personally - I love hearing from you all :) I'm always open to constructive and thoughtful critique, and feedback is my fuel. Find me... DeviantArt, Tumblr, or buy me a Ko-fi - all under KitsMits Also on Twitter as (at) EBachtovenJ DeviantArt has my own artwork (mostly for TUtN), and TUtN has a group on their called "KaiyaFC" - always accepting new members and submissions _~ Shoutout... Well, you can check out my Favorites lists for recommendations...but I need to do a shout out to ItY'Girl. We've been writing our fics together for well over a year now, and I think we've both become better writers thanks to this. Besides that, we've become friends, which is by far one of the most valuable things to come out of writing this story yet :) Check out her story, Pain and Hope - she has some very exciting stuff happening with it, and I often find myself envious of her ideas and her immersive writing style! |
