Not actually a bio, more of a not-so-daily log of stuff if you happen to care, the most recent stuff is on the bottom. If for some reason you feel the urge to mail me (pleaseplease!) toss a letter to drakkaur@yahoo.com, drakkaonis@yahoo.com (Also on Yahoo! Messenger, unlike drakkaur) or find me on ICQ. And though I usually add a mention of people that do stuff, sorry if I forget to add you or don't notice it. Feel free to wail on me discreetly and I'll add you eventually. =P (ie, mail or messaging) Also, I can be reached at desdinovest@hotmail (I actually check this account regularly), ICQ:317218944. I'm not on Yahoo! Messenger too often though.

May 6, 2003: Blah! Testing coming up! This week'll be fun... Don't expect much from me in the coming week or two, I'll probably be sleeping or studying every minute I get... But thanks for putting me on your favorites lists faerie light, FreeRadical! :)))

May 16, 2003: Oof. 10 days. Felt like a lifetime- AP exams, SATs, state tests, school tests, yikes! *pause* Oh shoot. English essay. (Whoops.) Well- one quick addition today [To Swear], though I can't help but feel there's something awkward about it. Ah well- don't edit poetry is my philosophy...it feels a little like you remove some of the spirit that it was given when it was written. And woohoo! FP.N changed their system so now my stuff is showing up properly again! So I reupped my works with improper spacing and checked the previews- they appear to be good though it might take some time for it to be updated. A thanks to everybody who've reviewed (Only good reviews that is! *smiles innocently* =) ) and placed me on their favorites lists!

May 20, 2003: Woo! Got 3rd place on a team chemistry competition today. =P Finished a second story similar to Stairway to the Stars so I altered it...It's now named The Aftersight Compilation with what was formerly Stairway to the Stars in the chapter 2 slot. Chapter 3 is An Old Friend, the new work. In my opinion, it's not quite as...what- having as much artistic value, but I rather like it. I couldn't really figure out how to describe the second half but oh well. I'm rather satisfied with it on the whole. Chapter 1 is just a table of contents but you can expect me to write more on a similar vein eventually. Seeyas! (Later today: Woo! My first thing that got *2* reviews! =P)

May 22, 2003: Zzzz....anybody else notice how work piles up as exams near? Ugh. And loads of typos in my last commentary. Ick. Hope [The Reaper] doesn't turn out like it. =P It's a little unlike my previous works, being a lighter piece of work so I have no idea how good my style/effectiveness is. And to anybody who pays attention to me (Uh. Nobody start cheering now...), yes, this is the same The Reaper as I stuck up a few days ago, but after getting up in the morning and looking at it, I realized how terrible it was. So- this is a somewhat fixed version of it. (And to anybody who's wondering, yes, I WAS playing Grim Fandango lately. =P)

May 24, 2003: Just added another piece to The Aftersight Compilation, though I think it's nowhere near as good as either of the first two. Did a few reviews and decided to peruse the site a bit. Anybody ever try looking at the info for user ID 0? =) Ah well- back to pecking away at boring English essays.

May 30, 2003: Well- Flat 1400 on SATs! 740/660...guess which was math. (Zzzzz.) Been busy lately so I haven't been putting stuff up, though I'm cleaning up a few old school essay- I'm probably going to host them under one thing under "The Scholastic Collection" in a few weeks or something. Meanwhile, if you're the sort who finds it easier to read grey-on-black, you can check out my stuff at http://members.cox.net/ganchord/index.htm. West is passworded, but there's nothing you'd care about in there unless you know the pw anyhow. East is a few personal things, while south are the stories themselves. North is currently empty so don't bother. And gaaaaah. SAT 2s in a week! Blahblahblah!!!!

June 2, 2002: Wooooow. You must be bored to submit that many reviews Cindy Moon. =) I don't mind short reviews- it's a little like how good authors are viewed as: You get lots of info into short sentences! Don't be worried about poor Raven in The Reaper though...I'll put up another part when I get the time, but it won't make him "normal"... Huuuum....im reply to lots of reviews, why is my stuff that good? Most of the time I basically go, "Ugh. I might as well send it out if I wasted this much time on it." But I'm glad that people like my stuff. =) And yeah, alot of my stuff revolves around love because it sorta has me depressed at the moment... *sigh* I depression is a style of my writing. Broken hearts, destruction, death...yeah, that's about all my stuff. =P I'd probably say that my favorite stuff is in The Aftersight Compilation. Like, Stairway to the Stars would make a beautiful piece of art in my opinion and An Old Friend would make for a spiffy car commericial. Er...yeah, I'm rambling. I'll shut up now. Ciao!

June 11, 2003: Gaaaaah. I feel like a lump of lard... Saturday: SAT IIs (Writing-, History+, Math IC+++)and I go home to hear my grandmother died that morning. =( (Take a look at In Memory...) Sunday: Work. Monday: Sister's graduation- had to hop up to MIT and the surrounding area for over 12 hours. Nnnnnng. Hoooooomework ring a bell?!?! Tuesday: Vocab test, history project, finance project. Zzz. Wednesday: Chem lab, English final info (GAAAAAAAH!) and a chemistry finalist contest...TOTALLY bombed it. Still have to do that chem lab, still have to study for the math final tomorrow, still have to prepare for my history presentation....Blah. But if you drop by Newport, RI, Panera bread is GREAT...*munches on a lump of sourdough* Mmmm..... A thanks to ColorCrayons and Braddhadair for their reviews, and another thanks to Braddhadair for the elusive addition to Favorite Author and Favorite story... Hrms! We both have Kezya's Innocence Lost on our favorites too. Seeyas!

June 19, 2003: Gnnnnnnnnnn.....finals........over............failed.....all....nnng. *thud* Zzzzz....... *dreams: {Ugh. Finals over. End of the Line is up and I have no idea why I did it, but I feel that it really sucks. Like, worse than my other stuff which I just say it does because it's habitual. =P Really doesn't feel like my style with the normal long flowiness suddenly transformed into a series of short slangy lines....but oh well. My styles change dramatically depending on how I feel. Which happens to be tired and to the point at the moment. Ah well. No new reviews [=(] but the last time I added something was quite a while ago anyhow. Oh well. Seeyas!}*
Edit: EEEEEEEEEEEEK! End of the Line is supposed to have every other line indented and FictionPress stripped that! EEEEEEEEEEP!

July 9, 2003: Nnnnnnnnnnng. Dead. Wake me in the morning Raven. Oh wait. It's 1AM of the 9th. NNNNNNNNNNNG.

September 17, 2003: No, I am NOT dead! Just...uh....dead. =P Currently having several projects I'm working one, one in the outline stage that I'm hoping will have a more professional short story feel, and the other a half-complete essay that's rather conteroversial. The essay should be done by the end of...uh.......the decade. Notice how FictionPress has the annoying single spacing again now?

September 23, 2003: Zzzzz.......*thud*

November 17, 2003: Gotta hate computers that die just as you finish stuff....Grrr. Anyhow- In Search of Lost Wings, pt 1 is up, and THIS one actually has more stuff done. About 6 more handwritten pages and an insomniatic mind running behind it. And I'm on ANOTHER favorites list! Woohoo! College apps are evil!
Edit: Zzzzz. Lost Wings is down again due to nasty formatting issues. http://members.cox.net/ganchord/lwing1.htm if you want to see a version that appears to have proper formatting and color.

December 15, 2003: Okay, C-O-M-A-T-O-S-E...or at least severe apathy. Sorry. A little trouble trying to figure out how to get the next bit of Lost Wings done too. The Man was put up; I think it's a rather good piece for taking less than 2 hours, but then again, I DID have something to base it off of. And it just occurred to me that the 3rd person who put me on their favorites list is somebody I already knew. So not really somebody new, but.....I'm rambling. Sowwy. =)

Februrary 9, 2004: Well- a happy belated New Years (both American and Asian) to all and an apology...it just really sucks when you actually understand how bad your stuff is so you toss it and begin anew. But on to other, more depressing topics! It's Valentine's Week! I'll be popping up at least a little something every day, whether it be a small thing like Post Its or something a little longer (Hopefully for the longer one at least...undergoing a serious overhaul after a friend pointed out a MAJOR issue with it...) to my mid-length stuff, at least SOMETHING's coming up every day! (And...yeah. Desdinovest@hotmail.com is still the best way to contact me, and my drakkaur@yahoo.com is kinda flaky, and I'm almost never on AOL's IM system. Sooo.....yeah, Desdinovest.) I'm out.

Februrary 11, 2004: Oh bugger it all. On the 1st day of every-day-this-week, I'm already behind! I HAD the stuff through....*grumble* Left it behind on a mini-notepad in class too. Probably got thrown out. *sob* At least one work survived...
Edit: Oops. Heh. They were actually just tucked into one of my textbooks and refused to fall out/reveal themselves the first few times I checked it out. Today's update goes into Post Its on the Fridge, and yesterday's is By the Phone! (*listens to abject lack of cheers* Ah well. I have to try, don't I? =P)

Februrary 12, 2004: Yatta! I got one in on time! Wheeeee!

March 31, 2004: College acceptance (and rejections *ulp*) are released tomorrow! Wootya! Dark Sun is released, another product that I'll probably start and never finish...heh. At least I have background work done this time so I have some sort of framework to rely upon. Ah well- I think I did a pretty good job on it...

In other news, personal relations are evil, ya know? Seeyas.

April 3, 2004: Woooot! A big thank you to Jessica White for posting my first review in months and for putting me on her favorite authors list! Dark Sun: Prelude is undergoing a slight update soon (tomorrow if I manage to avoid work) and Dark Sun: Interlude I is finished, awaiting a proofread/editing job. And if you really want to know what's going on- feel free to IM me using an above name and ask...just IDENTIFY YOURSELF AS BEING FROM FICTIONPRESS IMMEDIATELY or I'll block you...I've been getting way too much junk lately (Gomen!). I'm out!

April 4, 2004: Yatta! Interlude 1 finished and upped; review already in. You rule, Jessica! =) A post-edit copy of the Prelude is going up in a few (decades) too. Hope for the best!
Edit: Prelude's up! Fixed a typo or two, added in a few details...not much, but it makes me feel better at least... =P
Edit: Ugh. Fixed a few mistakes in the Prelude...mostly, the girl's estimation and a set of incorrect italics.

April 5, 2004: Yeowza. Section 1-1 seriously sucks. *shudder* It's short too, but it's not like it's own part... YEGADS. I can't stand dialogue. DIEDIEDIE! Maybe I'll just have everybody there shot in the throat or something. Not to mention I updated the dialogue like, five times in the half hour since I uploaded it.

April 21, 2004: *stretch* Visited Rochester for college yesterday...13 hours on a car...Ugh. All of Dark Sun's been reproofed, edited and patched up a bit. Hope it's a fair amount better! Woot!

May 16, 2004: Ok, the end of April and this weekend seriously blows. But don't ask why. Bleeeeeeah.
