Author has written 12 stories for Naruto.

I'm writing a story with Hey-Diddle-Diddle called "HMS Paradise." You can find it at our joint account on , "YarrKinky." She's a blast to write with, and if you like my other stuff you will definitely like this, it's hilarious. (and Kakashi/Iruka, you've been warned.) You can find a link under my Favourite Stories, listed for your convenience.

I'm moderator for http:///community/narutoreviews, a community dedicated to improving the quality of Narutofic by providing constructive criticism and reviews of fanfics. I'm also a mod of http:///community/narutogoodfics, where talented authors post links to their stories as they write them. If you or someone you know is an awesome writer, please join. If you or someone you know likes to read good Narutofic, (and, obviously, if you're reading this, you're a person of taste and discernment) please do check it out.

In my time not spent reading, I'm an artist and art historian specializing in Asian and Buddhist art. And a Jedi.

I've set up a deviantart account for any fanart I draw.
http:///

Oh yes. In my other, other spare time, I play Nara Shikaku in the rather dark-ish RP Scarlet Spiral. http:/// And people wonder why I never get anything done...

I promise:
I will never post a story without spellchecking and a looking over by my beta.
I will never hold my stories hostage for reviews.
I will never abandon a story.
I will never post anything I honestly think is no good.
I will treasure every review I get, and treat both praise and honest criticism with the consideration they deserve.

Current Status of Stories:

Caring (One-shot)

Favourite Things (One-shot)

Fireflies (One-shot)

Kindness (One-shot)

Leave of Vengeance (Current Project, WIP)

Leaves (One shots written intermittently)

Me and My Shadows (One shots influenced by Scarlet Spiral)

Outclassed (Current project, WIP, drawing to a close)

Perfect Day (Story told in oneshots, each work independently too)

Seven Down, Eight Up (on hold indefinitely, WIP)

Teamwork (One-shot)

The Autumn of Our Virility (Current project, WIP)

HMS Paradise (writing with Kiki, WIP)

Basically, right now I'm alternating posting chapters of The Autumn of Our Virility, Leave of Vengeance, and Outclassed. So yes, things are being worked on. Diligent-ish-y. And yes, my chapters are short. Unfortunately, I write so slowly that it's either post one thousand word (my minimum length) chapters periodically, or nothing would ever get done. Think of them as chocolate truffles: they're small, delicious, and should be savoured accordingly. (Alternately, they're small and horrid for your teeth.)

Conviction by QuestofDreams reviews
NaruSasu, SasuNaru. Convictions are what guide a ninja. But with assassinations, misplaced goals, and the threat of Akatsuki to occupy his time, even Naruto can lose his way.

SasuNaru KakaIru, ShonenAi, Yaoi Ch. 18 up! What happens when you lose the one you loved the most? But denial is a tricky thing... causing you to see the one you love most as a pokemon and you as his trainer. NOT ABANDONED! Still working on it.
