![]() Author has written 5 stories for Darker than BLACK, Rosario + Vampire, Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~, and Diabolik Lovers/ディアボリックラヴァーズ. I came across this site by accident (checking for a season 2 to Kaze No Stigma...I was sadly disappointed) and I just fell in love with it. I hope you enjoy reading my work. I enjoy reviews and feedback so long as it is either constructive or complimentary. It's quite simple really: Don't like, don't read... I'll try to update frequently. Sometimes, it may be months a part so I apologize in advance. This doesn't mean that I've given up on the story! So please be patient! It just meanst I have other things in my life that obviously take priority. When I make these stories I intend to try to keep them in context with the timeline and original plot of the show. I don't like to write about something that will least likely have happened. For example: I wouldn't make a story in which Voldemort from Harry Potter enrolls in beauty school lol. But feel free to explore that if you're interested. So I will respect the show and the characters to the best of my abilities. (That means little to no OOCness) or I just have to work really hard to get it there. I never re-write endings so if someone was killed in the series, they will be dead in my story unless I can give a miraculous and probable reason for their survival, which has happened before. My FAVE TOP 5 ANIME ARE: 1. Eden of the East 2. Angel Beats - to be honest though I'd put dtb in second too if there could be two 2nd places because I'm in love with that show too. 3. Darker than Black (my main squeeze) 4. Phantom: Requiem of the phantom I honestly couldn't help myself after I re-watched the show. It's a seriously underrated anime in my opinion. I'll update for selfish reasons because I don't think it'll be read. 5. Kaze no stigma (I have lots of ideas for this.) Lets see...there's definitely more I want to write about but I'll try to keep it at a minimum 2 at a time. Or three. Or...five. Also, thought I should mention I DO NOT write Yaoi. Sorry, but I'm not a fan of that sort of writing, so you won't see any pairings like that. Additional info: (since you're still here) 24/female I have a job...(another reason why updates may be scarce) English major in college and on top of that I intern at an elementary school. Happily taken for the past six years. Brazilian/Trinidadian/Native American (my future kids might struggle with severe identity crisis)Advice: (because you wish to know more) Never play a game with me unless you're on my team, I'm extremely competitive in video games. Things that bug me in writing: 1. Standard Hei/Misaki fanfics. I understand they're a great ship and believe me I enjoy writing about them. But most times in fanfics they are extremely out of character and all but blurted onto the page. It gives me whiplash. Let's get one thing straight here. Even if they were to fall in love, which would be nice, it would take a damn long time to get them there and if you want to attempt it, you've got a lot of writing to do. If not, well, I usually stand clear of those kinds of stories. I'll read the first paragraph and decide whether to continue. Harsh lol, but if you think I'm bad you ought to get into a creative writing workshop. Talk about brutal. 2. Flowery language In other words, people that try too hard to paint the picture. Imagery is a great way to draw readers in, but I don't need to be assaulted in every sentence. 3. Tell-all's. Words are used to show you their meaning, not to tell you. If someone is sad, don't tell readers "He was very sad" Instead, show readers through the actions of the character and his interactions with the world around him, or through his relationships with others. Sure you can drop hints every now and then. But, I don't want to just be told a story. I like to discern the intricacies of the work for myself as I'm sure many others would agree. 4. Too much detail. Yes, there is such a thing. You can tie this into flowery language. As I've previously mentioned, I'm not a fan of assault. If my inspiration is ripe, I will not hesitate to write!
