If you want to talk to me, my screen name on Aim is XxXTsubomiXxX

Hello,

My real name is Melissa Norvell and I'm an aspiring manga artist and writer. I'm 24 years old and live in Oklahoma. My life-long dream is to become a manga-ka and I've been working very hard on my stories that I also have drawn versions of. I just hope that they are good enough to one day help me achieve my dream.

My Icon- Tsubomi and Copernicus from Shattered Illusions. (C) Melissa Norvell Do Not Use Without Consent of Melissa Norvell. Yes I did draw it myself. It's the famous hair-twirling scene from chapter one. Don't know what I'm talking about? Then read the story, of course.

General Info:

I won't give you a review because I'm trying to be nice. I'm going to review it because I've actually read it. Don't send me PMs about how you updated your story and you want me to read it either, because I won't. If I liked your story enough to read it, then I'm going to come back and read it until the end, so I don't need to be reminded, especially if I have you on alerts. That's what the alert does. PM Me if you want to be staff of my C2 or if you want to talk or ask me a question.

If I add you to my C2, I've done a quick scan over your story and I found it well-written, with good reviews and/or word from other authors on this site of a good reputation. I may go back and change my mind but until then, it's just from first glance. Some I actually did read but most I did not. There are a lot of stories here and that's a quick and effective way to do it without a staff.

If I've flaunted my reviews because I was angry or being critical then I am sorry. Just because people like my stories makes me no better then anyone else here. I know I've done this a few times in the past so I will apologize and promise never to do it again from now on.

If you don't like what I've written, don't read it. Also, don't leave me a review with nothing but bashing comments and negative criticism because I feel like I should be told about the things that I do right in my works as well. If a review is nothing more then bad remarks and negative criticism then I'll take it as a flame- end of discussion. It's alright if you didn't like it, but have the decency to tell me about something you like in the story as well as what you didn't. That's all I ask is a well-rounded critique with negative and positives.

I have a LOT of stories here. My updating plans are hell, so please stick with me if something you like doesn't get updated all that soon. I'm writing 13 stories at once and I'm trying to make everyone as happy as I can. Please bear with me. I know that they are also mistake ridden. I have to use Word Pad to type until I can get MS Word and I will fix my mistakes when I complete a work. Also, I'm currently beta reading a story and converting several scripts into story form for a personal friend of mine, SilverIsamu. Check out her Bio, we have a lot of co-authored works there!

My stories are not perfect and to be truthful, I don't think my talent is greater then anyone else's here. I will continue to write works and I may not always update on time but I will update.

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Projects that I'm working on and may or may not write here:

To Wish Upon The Sea II

- Sequel to To Wish Upon The Sea.

Play Pretend

- Finished but will not be posting because I want it to remain original. (ended in 31 chapters)

XXXXXXXXXXX FANART XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I've gotten a couple of fanart and I'm estatic that people actually want to draw my characters! I wanted to take the time to honor them in my bio by posting links to thier works here. I don't post my pictures on websites because I want them to remain original, so if you want to see what my characters look like to draw a fanart, then simply click on the e-mail link on the top of my page. I may occasionally show them in my icon but that's it really.

Now, on to the fanart:

http://kite-92.livejournal.com/2143.html

This was actually my first fanart from Kite, who drew Valentino and Rubio completely from memory. Valentino's hair is longer but other then that, they both look great!

http://tokyopop.com/NikiTori16/art/2655634.html

Thanatos Fanart for To Wish Upon The Sea by Niki Tori. She also did this from memory versus having an actual image to draw from. She did an amazing job! It looks just like him!

>>> If you have any fanart you'd like to donate please e-mail me!
