PROFILE

After a ridiculously long absence, I'm back and finally finishing the stories I began and starting new ones as well. I hope you enjoy them!

Hey everyone, my name is Beth. Basic stats... I live in New York City and Georgia and graduated from Columbia University in 2008. I'm a trapeze artist and figure skater as well. Work... I import Japanese clothing (Lolita, Shibuya style... strictly Japanese brands) to sell and distribute in the US. It's fun. ^.^

I started writing quite a long time ago (original fiction stories, poetry, and one non-fiction endeavor), but this is my first shot at fanfics. So I hope you like them!! (I'll probably pop up with Kaleido Star and Ghost Hunt fanfics... I don't know what else hehe).

And please leave reviews and comments, so I can make the stories better!

Also, below in my profile... you can see that things are kept in order. The first section is Updates, then Target Posting Dates for new chapters, followed by Previews for the new chapters. I'll soon be adding a Thank You section too.

UPDATES

UPDATE 6/22/10: Chapter 8 of Kaleido Star: Embracing the True Star is up! This chapter begins the Auditions arc. The next chapter should be up in about within a week.

Ghost Hunt fanfic. It's currently in the outlining process, with the prologues already written. The first five chapters are now up! The next chapter should be up within two weeks.

Thanks to everyone who has been reviewing my first fanfic (Kaleido Star: Embracing the True Star). Anjyu, Asuka Masura, littlemissvampire21, sheep-san is here to stay, crazyhorse08, and fairy246, you guys are great! Thank you so much!

UPDATE 5/28/10: So, after writing the majority of my fics and (for Ghost Hunt) compiling, sorting through and outlining tons of research as well, my computer decided to crash and I lost EVERYTHING. I was so frustrated that I just basically gave up, cut my losses, and eventually forgot about them. Now I'm back, and I'm finishing what I started. New installments for Kaleido Star: Embracing the True Star will be up more frequently than Ghost Hunt: The Sealed File (at least initially), because I need to re-research a lot of the things for Ghost Hunt. It's been so long that I've forgotten quite a bit of the details for the setting, and since it takes place at a real location (well, multiple ones, but only one has been revealed so far... Kiyomizu-dera) I need to get the history, description, setting, etc. back down before I put up the next chapter. The newest chapter of Kaleido Star: Embracing the True Star is already up as of today, and the next one will be up in about 3 days. The newest chapter of Ghost Hunt: The Sealed File will be up within two weeks. Enjoy :) And remember, please review. Criticism and critiques are always welcome too! I also might be starting a fanfic for "The Mortal Instruments" series by Cassandra Clare. I'll give more details on that later.
