Name: Athena

Age: 27 (In this lifetime...)

Home: Middle of nowhere (just about literally)

Profession: CNA- that's Certified Nursing Assistant. I work Midnights.

I've started going to school to get my nursing license, so that has put a considerable dent in my time. I apologize for the lack of any updates on my fics. When I have the time...

I owe my love of fanfics to my Husband, StormRaven. He introduced me to RPG's and anime. And I've come to realize that all the really good cartoons that hit America owe their roots, if not their entire appeal, to Japanese anime and manga. The same goes for all great vid fave is anything Final Fantasy. I've played them all, all the way back to 1 on the original Nintendo.

I like normal romance, Yaoi, straight, gay, lesbian, whatever you want to call it. As long as the author can make the story believable. I REALLY like the ones where the author can reach out to my heart and soul and make me FEEL it!

List of my fave settings and storylines:

Final Fantasy- Just about any couple and setting, but my I think my current fave is Yuna and Tidus from FFX FFX-2. Kingdom Hearts fits into this catagory.

Castlevania- All the Belmonts are cool and all, but my big thing is Vampires so I tend to like Symphony Of The Night where you play Alucard, son of Dracula, the best. And why in Heaven is there NO FANFICS for this! Did everyone just forget it existed? Maybe I'll have to write one myself and rectify the situation...

Yu-Gi-Oh - I like Yugi, Yami,.. well, just about ALL of the characters actually. I will admit though that I really don't like Seto Kaiba. I just haven't been able to find anything about him to like. I'd really like to find an author that can make me like him.

Gundam Wing- OK, so I'm really OBSESSED over this subject! I like just about ANY pairing here. Although, I have the same problem with Wufei that I do with Seto, I just have a hard time liking him.

Escaflowne- Really, really love this one! The series and the movie both! My only real complaint is that Hitome didn't get to stay with Van in either one.

Teen Titans- I'm just now really getting into this one, but it's looking promising. Really like Robin/Starfire and Robin/Raven fics. Looking for a website that gives an overview of the series, in order, and with episode descriptions. Anyone know one?

Fushugi Yugi (The Mysterious Play) - I really liked this series. I bought the entire thing! But, OH MY GOD, that was so much angst that I have a hard time watching it anymore. Hence, I have a Great anime series, sitting on my bookcase collecting dust. :(

Rurouni Kenshin - Yeah, I love this series too! Not really into yaoi on this one. I just love Kenshin!

Inuyasha- I love this one too! Inuyasha and Kagome are so cute! Not so much into yaoi with this one either... BTW, can you guess where I get my penname?

Robotech - I'm into this one a little. This is actually more StormRaven's thing. :)

Rifts- Has anyone out there heard of this one? It's a RPG by a great company called Palladium. Looking for fanfics thereof.

Dungeons and Dragons- Yep, been playing this one forever and a day, too. I like seeing aspects of this creep into fanfics.

DC and Marvel- I like Batman, Robin, Nightwing, Catwoman, and just about all the X-Men.

I adore Disney movies.

I'm also very into Vampires, Werewolves, Witches, Wicca, Magic, Psychics, and just general mystacism.

Very into songfics, especially ones with Evanescence and Pat Benatar.

Here lately, I've started reading Doctor Who fics. I''ve dove into them with a passion. And I've got an idea to write one...(Gonna have to get on that one of these days) I'm a hopeless 10/Rose addict, though 9/Rose is fine too. In all honesty, as long as it's the Doctor and Rose, I love it! I personally despise what teh writers have done to the series, writing Rose out at the end of season 2. It literally felt like it broke my heart, which is something I never felt before, at least not over something as trivial as a t.v. show. (shakes head, feeling like an idiot)

I have six fanfics up at the moment. Not to mention ideas for tons more! As soon as I have a little more on my other stories I'll start posting them. I have some serious ideas for 'The Getaway' and 'Caged Doves'. If I get ANY spare time, I'll get some more out for them. _

I try to leave feedback for everything I read. I know I look forward to feedback, plus I think that authors deserve to know what you think of their stories. Remember: Authors Love Feedback!
