I dreamed a limitless book,

A book unbound,

Its leaves scattered in fantastic abundance.

On every line there was a new horizon drawn,

New heavens supposed; New states, new souls.

One of those souls,

Dozing through some imagined afternoon,

Dreamed these words.

And needing a hand to set them down,

Made mine.

- Clive Barker

Miroir has a new LJ, guys! Which, sadly unlike her work, will be updated on a regular basis to let you know she hasn't, you know, kicked off. Kindly follow the Homepage link to get to it. Thank you! :3

I'm female, African American, and from the greatest city on Earth - New York. Sadly, I no longer live there as of the summer of '08 - I am now a quite unwilling Georgia resident. My favorite color is blue, and I enjoy writing (I am losing my touch if I must resort to stating the obvious), reading, surfing the Web, volleyball, and swimming. I love listening to music, and I always have something playing when I'm writing. I am a Capricorn, born on January 5. I am a junior in high school.

My favorite fanfiction realms are Phantom of the Opera, Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy X, Devil May Cry, and Kingdom Hearts.

About my current multichapter fics:

Watercolor - This fic has been officially abandoned. I'll leave up what's there, but I will not be updating it again.

The Glasses and Braces Arc: This will be a collection of collectively archived oneshots focusing on the concept of a relationship between nerd!Leon and nerd!Cloud. An idea that was just too adorable to pass up. So far there are eleven chapters in total planned, though this may change to include or delete ideas. I'm running a contest for it, as well - every 25th reviewer wins a 1000-word LeonxCloud oneshot and can request the plot of their choice. And I have a third winner now - someone hit review #75. All this time, and I haven't even finished the second person's yet...oh, dear...

I. Of Diction and Love (posted, PLEASE review.)

II. Of Troubles and Trust (posted, PLEASE review.)

III. Of Leather and Lip Gloss (posted, PLEASE review.)

IV. Of Parents and Pi (posted, PLEASE review.)

V. Of Christian and Roxanne (posted, PLEASE review.)

VI. Of Sparrows and Scars (in progress)

Contest Winner(s): XxTypoMasterxX, Zombie Kid, Cattypatra

I would like it if someone would do fanart for any of my fics. Or an AMV. You know, just a thought.

I would like to thank Oblea for drawing and mailing me a lovely picture of nerd!Leon and Cloud. Which I really need to get around to scanning, one of these days...

Not extending any of my oneshots. Sorry. Maybe write a companion piece if you ask nicely.

I am taking story requests and prompts at this time. So throw them at me. Really. Sadly, I only have enough time at this point to beta for my own beta, so I'm not taking beta requests anymore. I'm sorry.

(Upcoming) Projects

I have several upcoming projects, most all Leon/Cloud. Stuff to look out for:

Dynamism: This is a new multichapter LeonxCloud AU. It will be posted eventually - probably after the G/B arc is close to completion. And yes, it is based on an anime, but I have changed basically the whole backstory and plot while leaving only a few elements from the original work. As such, the end result is quite different. I'm hoping it will be received well when it does go up.

Lesser-known authors that deserve a helluva lot more attention:

YonderB (all his/her LeonxCloud work, ESPECIALLY Doctor, Doctor and Nurse, Nurse)

Sorceress Fantasia (all her LeonxCloud work)

CornCob (Guten Tag, America + all his/her LeonxCloud work)

Michael Lee (Roses and Wine)

What A Rubber Chicken (Perfect Trinity)

Signing off for now. Wait on me, ne?
