UPDATES

Jan. 21, 2014

Just a placeholder update for anyone who comes by this page. Personal updates...got married, adopted some cats, all that crazy stuff called life. No babies yet but hoping to this year.

From a writing standpoint I consider myself "Inactive," though I still read avidly in multiple fandoms. If you have I interest in a particular story, please let me know in a review or a PM. Please note if the status on a story is listed as "Complete," it will not have any more chapters added to it.

You can most actively find me on Tumblr. ( http:// )As a warning, I'm a multi-fandom blog and I post whatever catches my fancy. That is by far the easiest and quickest way to reach me.

Fandoms I post a lot of on Tumblr: Mass Effect, Dragon Age, ATLA, anything and everything Disney

My Stories:

Five Times Tony Said "I love you." (Complete): Iron Man One shot. Pretty self explanatory.

Moments of Time (Complete): Iron Man Oneshot, more abstracty, introspect kinda fic.

Breaking Point (Complete): Iron Man Oneshot. Post IM2, Pepper tries to cope with the fact she didnt know Tony was dying.

Reparations (Complete): Bones oneshot, Brennan tries to make things right with Booth after Conman/Methlab.

Prelude to a Beginning (complete): Bones Oneshot, prelude to the dream of the s4 finale.

Alternate Images (In Progress): Bones multichapter constant WIP. Certain pictures in the "Bones" TV series have always struck me, in that they could occur in a completely different context. Here is a possible other context.

A Part of Us (complete): Bones Oneshot. Postfic for Critic/Cabernet

A Change in Her (Complete): Bones Oneshot. Postfic for Critic/Cabernet.

Two of a Pair (Complete): Bones fic. Oneshot. Drabble-ish short thing inspired by socks.

Two of a Pair, part two(Complete): Bones fic. One Shot companion piece to Two of a Pair, inspired, once again, by socks

Contentment(Complete): Bones Fic. One shot (first Bones fic!) inspired by the Season 4 episode, Conman in the Methlab

Shippo: Seven Jewels 5/7ths done. Will try to finish it some day. May rewrite it.

Free of Restrictions:(100 percent) In need of refurb. One day...

Diamonds and Tears: (100): Yesh. Not very happy with this one anymore...Stupid rules about song lyrics. (I say if the music artist has no objections about 'borrowing' their lyrics, shouldn't either. I mean, how many famous painters and other artists have been inspired by music? As long as its properly cited...but what can we do about it?)

Up Coming Ideas...

Alternate Images: Certain pictures in the "Bones" TV series have always struck me, in that they could occur in a completely different context. I am going to write that other context. First chapter has been beta'ed (by the lovely RoxanneJ) and will be posted shortly.

The Dog Prince Based on the fairy tale 'the Seal Prince' by Sheila MacGill-CallahanRomance, Angst(InuYasha) (Inu/Kag)AU--When she was eight, Princess Kagome saved a puppy trapped against a tree in the forest, and returned him safely to his parents. Every year after that, the dog came back for a joyful reunion with his rescuer. On Kagome's eighteenth birthday, however, instead of the dog, a tall young man is waiting for her. He is InuYasha, the dog prince, and he asks her to come and live with him in his kingdom in the Forbidden Forest...

If You Do...InuYasha(Inu/Kag, Established San/Mir) AU - At the reception of two friends, two who have loved each other unknowingly are unblinded (I did not write this summary)

The Scarlet Haori (Inu/Kag, San/Mir, old Kag/Kouga) AU--oooooh, I've been waiting to post this one for forever...but I'm scared, because it has to be PERFECT! This is based on'The Scarlet Pimpernel'...I can't wait till I find my rough draft again!

Shortly after their marriage, a great misunderstanding causes Kagome and InuYasha to grow apart--InuYasha fearing that his greatest secret will be revealed, and Kagome fearing rejection if she were to confess her past. But when things begin to spiral out of control, will things be resolved, or will the secrets twist even more?
