Author's Note

I'll be honest with you here - the stories dated from 2002-2004 is subject to dubious grammar, incoherent formatting and screwed up plot, to say nothing of an embarrassing lack of control over plot and characters. Meaning the Saiyuki pieces, the Disney-esque stories, and almost all the stuff within the Mulan section, with the exception of about two. Maybe one.

But, if you would STILL like to read them, you are welcome (although I don't really understand why). Just be warned that the writer was, back in the day, proud and happy, young and foolish. Thus I committed some of the worst no-nos in fanfiction. Be told.

For those of you who revisit this page and remember reading my earlier works when I was just starting to write, I thank you still, from the bottom of my heart. You gave me the support I needed to grow. And I appreciate that immensely. I couldn't have practiced and/or improved without any of you. Thank you once again. (bows)

Other than that, I hope you enjoy reading and have a nice day. :)

Story Notes

5th Jan 2005: Deleted "Mulan 2 and a Few Missing Scenes". My very first fic but that was two years ago and in script format so technically it's illegal.

17th May 2006: Deleted "Murder By The Sea", "Spirit in Stone" and "Why Does No One Call You Genjo?" . The first two on the grounds that they would be discontinued till goodness knows when since I've moved out of both Detective Conan and Saiyuki fandoms. Hence, the decision to remove them since... well they're collecting cyber dust. The third one... a Sanzo/OC, after four years of reflecting, will be better executed by a writer with more skills than I. I do wish that person all the best of luck though and express my personal wish to see a good story like that. :)

"Random Scenes of Saiyuki" is the jewel of my collection. I don't take sole credit: Imaginator worked equally if not harder on that and I'm proud to have collaborated with her. You can find the story under the name of YunCynImaginator. However, after three years, I suppose it's time we admit that we have indeed moved on from Gensomaden Saiyuki. We thank the reviewers and readers for their support and we wish those four men who're trundling along in their loyal jeep, a good journey and to come back alive and well from Togenkyo.

9th March 2010: To SiddharthaFF from The Genesis Awards forums, wherever you may be - thank you so much for nominating "Mashed Potatoes" for 'Best Het Romance' of The Genesis Awards 2010! I had hoped to thank you personally but there didn't seem to be any way of reaching you. So, if you happen to reading this, thank you so much again. I'm very, very honoured that you liked the story enough to think it worthy of a nomination. :) Thank you truly!

6th May 2010: So, it appears has helpfully removed all the double spaces I normally use to indicate some sort of separation between sections.

In every story.

...hmm.

Please excuse the lack of cohesion/coherence in the stories as I attempt to restore them to their normal appearances. Thanks for your patience.

EDIT: Well, it appears that a symbolic section break will be needed from now on. Many thanks to the very helpful Fanfiction.net How-To located at Whitehound (dot) co (dot) uk. If anyone's having trouble with formatting, Google up that name - it should turn up a nifty guide for users who want to get round some issues.

EDIT2: Deleted "The Dragon and the Phoenix", "When Mulan Was Away" as well as "When the Dragon Falls" (Ranma 1/2) due to... well, quite frankly, old shame. (Granted, "Second Sacrifice" is still around for sentimental reasons. It's probably going into the depths of my hard drive and never emerging ever again once this account turns 10 years old, along with several other very old, cringe-worthy stories kept here.)

My deepest apologies and gratitude to those who enjoyed as well as reviewed all three stories while they were up. The young writer in me could not have grown without your encouragement. Thank you all. :)
