Hello, hello!

Welcome to my bio page!

The picture to the left there is one of my favorites. Anyone see a possible resemblance to Arya's black morning glory?

A little about me:

I completely adore reading fiction, and the Inheritance Cycle is an obsession of mine. Eragon and Arya all the way! I guess you can say I go for the whole angsty, forbidden love thing. Oh well...

My newest obsession (at least until Inheritance Cycle Book 4 comes out) is the Sword of Truth Series-- 11 books of addictive fun. If you're a fan of the fantasy genre and have a thing for forbidden romance, then check this series out. Start with Wizard's First Rule; it's the first book of the series and my personal favorite.

News Updates!

My first story is now up, and I would absolutely love it if everyone reviewed it! :) It's called Closer Beneath the Tree. Please tell me what you think; it will make my day! It's just a little oneshot that I couldn't get out of my head...

8/1/08

I am currently writing another Eragon/Arya story except this one will be much, much longer! I already have the first 5,000 words written, and I am working on the middle and ending right now. I have the first part typed up, but I'm waiting a little longer to post it to decide where to split up the chapters. I hope everyone will love it because I have spent many hours on it. Oh, and it will be finished before Brisinger comes out.

8/14/08

The Prologue and Chapter 1 are up for His Wyrda! (My plan is for the story to be about 9 chapters long, each chapter around 3,000 words!) I'll post Chapter 2 in a day or two.

8/29/08

Hey again! I just posted Chapter 6 of His Wyrda, and I hope everyone enjoys it. I've spent many hours of my life writing this story and have loved every minute of it!! I'm trying to finish writing chapters 8,9, and the Epilogue this weekend, so if anyone has any ideas for the Eragon/Arya scenes or anything you want to see happen, leave me a review pretty soon.

8/31/08

I just wanted to let ya'll know that school just got cancelled until next Thursday because of Hurricane Gustav. Good news: I'll have more time to write. Bad news: We may lose power for a few days, so that means no updates. :( I'll post the new chapter as soon as possible (if I don't get blown away...)

9/05/08

Hello! I just finished writing the ending of His Wyrda. I'm kind of sad now...though, I am really exicited to have it finished (I just don't know what I'll do to fill in the vast void in my life now that its done! Wow, I can go to sleep before 3:00 in the morning.) Anyway, the last chapter and the epilogue will be up this week, so tell me what you think of my story. :)

9/30/08

Hey, its been a long time! His Wyrda has been complete for awhile, and I'm getting more hits for it now that its finished than when I was writing! The thing is, people don't seem to review as much (or at all.)

Anyway, I finished Brisingr the day it came out (obsessive, I know), and now I'm craving a decent Eragon fanfic. No one seems to be writing one though... I don't have the time to put into another Eragon/Arya fic right now, but maybe in the future I will write a companion piece to His Wyrda. So all you writers out there-- a good Eragon/Arya story would be much appreciated! Oh yeah, after finishing Brisingr, I wanted to find out what other people thought about it, so check out my poll. Until I think of something else worth posting, bye!

10/31/08

Happy Halloween, everybody! I absolutely love this holiday!! I don't have that much to say, but since I haven't updated this page in awhile, I decided to throw something out there... I have been itching to write another Eragon fanfiction, but my classes this semester are kicking my butt with all their research papers. Ugh!

Oh yeah, if any of you find any typos or horrendous grammer in my stories, please please PM me about it. I find that other people can spot my errors a lot better than I can, so you will be doing me a huge favor by letting me know so I can correct them. Thanks for the help!

11/21/08

Hello, hello- its been awhile since I've posted anything new here. Well, I suppose that's because nothing new is really going on... I do have a slight idea for another Eragon story, but it isn't even in the basic outlining stage yet- pretty much its just a strange idea with a few persistent scenes swirling around in my head. Perhaps since this next week is Thanksgiving break, I can soldify an outline or something. (No promises since I do have two term papers due soon on top of having to construct a medieval catapult/ trebuchet thing!)

I think that I'm slightly delirious, so sorry if I leave a twisted review of anyone's story. I haven't slept more than 6 hours out of the past 3 days. :) Last night was my fault though-- Twilight movie premiere anyone? Yes, I fully admit that I stood in line for two hours to watch the 12:01 showing last night--err...well, early this morning. Well, enough of my rambling, have a happy Turkey Day, people! (I'm going to attempt to sleep...)

Oh! One more thing-- a huge thanks to all the readers of my stories. Earlier this week, His Wyrda was added to its 100th fav. list. Seriously, ya'll are awesome and way too kind (I still don't think it deserves all that...) Anyway, all of you mean a ton to me, and I thank you for the encouraging support!

12/18/08

Whoohoo! I am finally off for winter break! This last week of finals nearly killed me (ugh, term papers... no sleep...) Anyway, enough of depressing school talk. I got a review the other day that wondered if I still read the new reviews for His Wyrda. So to answer that--of course I still read them! When I see a new review in my inbox, it makes my day. :) So please continue giving them!

I thought that I would have time to work on a new story over Thanksgiving Break, but that never happened. Hopefully, I will get something done over my next two-week break. No promises though (and it will still be a month or two before I post anything here.)

Also, I have a question for everyone-- what happened to all the Inheritance Cycle fanfiction writers? I haven't gotten a new chapter alert in weeks! I don't know; it just seems strange that all the major writers have skipped town. Almost all of the new stories are self-inserts or AU's, and I am just wondering where all the quality Eragon fics have disappeared to. Please, everyone, continue writing!

Have a wonderful holiday break!

Happy New Year! Cheers to all of the excellent fanfiction writers out there!! Let's keep it up in 2009. :)

02/05/09

Wow, its been awhile. I'm sorry to say that I haven't gotten very far in writing a new Eragon fanfiction story. I know, I know, I said that I would really work on it over Winter Break. I have plenty of lovely excuses, but I won't bore any of you with them. :)

My main reason for posting this is to give a huge thank you to all of my reviewers! His Wyrda received its 300th review today!! I honestly cannot believe it--ya'll have been so supportive, it kind of makes me a little teary-eyed. So yeah, all of you are awesome!

05/20/09

Whoa, I hadn't realized that so much time has passed since I last updated this page. So sorry about that--life throws some hefty left hooks. I still read quite a bit of Eragon fanfiction, but it seems that most of my favorite authors have slowly drifted away into the not-ever-updating universe. I mourn the loss of them. I cannot say I'm much better than them, though, because I believe I've promised a new fanfiction for many months now and have yet to post anything. Again, sorry...

Today is a day to celebrate, and that is the reason for this post. Today, His Wyrda finally reached 50,000 hits!! I have been slowly watching the hit count grow in quiet anticipation for the breakthrough of the big 50k, so I am extremely excited to finally reach that goal. For all of the people who read, review, and favorite my stories, I seriously love all of you--you are amazing and I am so grateful! :)

Happy early Halloween, everyone! I'm so very sorry for my neglect of the fanfiction universe--I feel as if I am abandoning a good friend in its time of need... I glanced over my earlier updates and realized that I've promised a new Eragon story for a very long time now, and for that I feel awful. Know that I think of the Eragon fandom often and that I frequently daydream of having the time to write a new story as it should properly be written. The new story is still a work in progress. The general plot is there and many of the scenes are intensely and vividly painted in my mind. The only thing remaining is for me to fill in the gaping plot holes and of course...the actual writing of the fanfic. Doesn't sound too promising, does it?

I know, I know. I will try to do better. Here is a shout-out to all of the new guys coming in and reading and reviewing my fanfictions--you are all awesome! Thank you all for the uplifting words and encouragement! Until next time...

04/27/10

Alright, I admit--it's been far too long since I've done anything to this profile page. Wow, I suppose it's been about half a year since I updated anything. Time flies when you're having f... Wait, time flies when you're busy. That's more realistic. I decided to stop by and post an update today because His Wyrda reached another wonderful milestone-one that I never imagined even in my wildest dreams when writing the fic. As of earlier today, His Wyrda was added to its 300th favorite list! That's really just too crazy for me to comprehend, but thank you all so much for the love and support! Know that I still read (and usually respond to) all of the new reviews, so if you are a new reader, please stop by and tell me what you thought of it. And for all of the guys that have been around for the longest time, you are amazing beyond words! I wish all of you the best and lots of love!

Wow, 8 years. I've never forgotten my original love of fanfiction.net or you lovely readers/writers out there. Here's to you! For those of you who are still leaving me awesome reviews, you have my complete and utter adoration.

Quotes from some of my favorite books:

"But if you ever meet him, don't you dare tell him about this...pretending to be a spirit business. He has rather fussy views about such things. If you told him you let me run around naked with a thousand of your men, he would probably take your head off." --Kahlan Amnell, Stone of Tears, Sword of Truth Series

"You talk like a drunk man walks: in every direction but where he be headed." -Adie, Sword of Truth Series

Nicci looked up at Kahlan. "Knives are not my talent."
"It's not hard," Kahlan said as she pressed the handle into Nicci's hand. "When the time is right, just stick the pointed end somewhere important in someone you really don't like." -Sword of Truth Series

“I do not know beneath what sky or on what sea shall be thy fate.
I only know it shall be high.
I only know it shall be great.”
