dX is the mage. Clyde is the muse. Aurielle is the songbird.

dX is created due to my obsession with the hydrogen isotope, and because back then I was trying to sound cool. (Xtreme!! w00t!) The time has passed and I sort of got used to this alter-ego, so I'm keeping it.

Clyde is the first name of Mr. Tombaugh, who discovered Pluto, which was demoted to a dwarf planet, which is bloody unjustified. He dreams of fantasy realms and all manners of magic and mayhem. He refuses to give me ideas for school projects, and is currently pretending to have fallen asleep. I'm not going to entice him with SF and mecha again.

Aurielle is a little creature lurking at my shoulder. Now she is trying to mimic a phoenix's lament, because I am ignoring all my boys. I'm considering giving each of them a phoenix feather both as a consolation and as a plaything they can use with their respective beloveds.

On reviews and communities:

I appreciate reviews (constructive criticism or otherwise), and I try to both reply to them and review other people's stories as much as I can. Also, because I see writing as a rather personal and private thing, I get a bit hesitant about interacting with other fellow writers here on FP.com. Many apologies if I appear as an unresponsive lurker or something.

On story ratings:

Some of my fics should have a rating somewhere between M and T, but are simply rated T instead. I hope that is acceptable, considering none of them feature explicit violence or sex. (Except, I admit, the occasional use of language.)

On Manga stories:

For fics which I post under the Manga section, it usually means that they have imagery that resemble more of manga than of live-action - think greyscale tones, panels, pauses and so on. Japanese locations and names are secondary.

On slash and BL:

Fics which I label as 'slash' simply means they involve M/M character pairings, regardless of story ratings and the intensity of the characters' relationships. 'BL' (boys' love) implies that there are more sentimental emotions of love between those characters. (Although I am aware that BL usually refers to yaoi (graphic M/M) in the conventional Japanese context. Many apologies for my choice of terms, but I tend to interpret them too literally.)

On QuickEdit:

I hate it to the guts!! But like most other people on FF.net and FP.com, there is nothing much I can do , except perhaps adapt to its changes.

A tip on story summaries - previously they allowed both round and square brackets, but disabled slashes. (Hence the likes of 'MxM slash' instead of 'M/M slash'.) The current version allows slashes , but absurdly ignores brackets of any kind. The only bracket I have tried that bypasses QuickEdit for now are ‹these›, which are fine for labels at the beginning or the end of a summary, but not so much for inserted points in the middle of a sentence. Stupid, stupid QuickEdit. -_-

Special thanks to all you readers and reviewers, with your encouragement, suggestions and miscellaneous sweet treats. You make me a happy little writer grinning foolishly in front of my computer monitor. (:
