I'm a dreamer who wants to draw comics and write books, and eventually take over the world via behind-the-scenes politics, keeping the peace and making the world a better place for all. Oh, and I want to be the first ambassador the aliens when they come.

*giggles* Actually, those are all very real dreams I have. But on the more mundane side, I'm an undergrad in college, hopefully majoring in either international relations or international politics, with minors in creative writing and Irish studies. Of course, that list could easily change, but hey, I'm working with what I've got.

I'm a major fan of the following: Labyrinth, Inuyasha, anything Disney, Beauty and The Beast in all its forms, Yuyuhakusho, Hanazakiri Kimitachi e, Utena, Interview with a Vampire, LOTR, Sailormoon, Anita Blake, Buffy, and good, well-crafted stories of all sorts. (I'm a bit of a mass-market snob. I don't see the point of writing something that amounts to a character sketch heavily laden with layer upon layer of metaphors and pretty pictures. Therefore, I'm afraid I'm not big on most literature. C'mon, stories are meant to be stories, accessible to all!)

My favorite couples? I'm sure a trend will be seen: Sesshoumaru/Kagome, Vegeta/Bulma, Spike/Buffy, Dimando/Usagi, Yue/Sakura, Hades/Persephone, Jareth/Sarah, Belle/Beast (the beast was so much hotter than the prince)...

See a pattern?

Good.

Oh, and about my fave authors: Stephan Gagne (god that he is) is listed, but his really good Slayers stuff isn't on Fanfiction.net. Go to his website, and read the novel-length epics he has for Slayers. And read his original stuff. Heck, read everything if you have time to kill, and even if you don't, make time. This guy is _good_. Try his Sailor Nothing story. Everyone who was ever exposed to magical girl anime needs to read this story.
