is it true that all those who wish to see Heaven end up falling to Hell?
so there you are in these photographs.
there's that face with those chocolate saucer eyes, the cherry lips with that whisper of a smile of yours that seems to flicker like a flame.
models never smile; how can they smile with that armor of glitter coated on their lips?
you had it all down even before they found you, long before they exposed you, ripped you apart until that flame of yours smoldered to ashes and dust.

I am somewhat of a rare breed: a lazy perfectionist. I undergo extreme storyline planning before writing anything down. I also tend to lose interest very quickly. I do write regularly on my blog (link is under 'homepage') - usually really obscure stuff - so drop by if you're ever bored to tears.
I try to reply to every review anyone sends me - either by reviewing your story or by sending a message. If you want me to review something of yours, just let me know and I'll return the favor. In case you want to contact me (though I'm not quite sure why), the best way is to send me a message through Fictionpress.
The Ecstasian Phantom is the first story I've written that has managed to get past two chapters. I've axed four other stories that got nowhere. Cross your fingers and hope it'll be the first story I'll ever finish.
Cheers.
Progress as of: August 11, 2008
So here's the deal. Chapter 15 is about sixty percent done. However, my final exams for the end of this quarter at summer college are this week, and when I finally return home, I will have a massive load of summer high school homework to finish up. Therefore, I don't expect to be done with the chapter too soon. Furthermore, I am back in the phase where I detest how sloppily I structured the story, so in all honesty, I've been in a sort of writer's block.
If you are all dying to read something of mine, however, I have been writing on my blog almost daily, detailing the events that have happened to me at the program I have been attending this summer. In order to make sense out of anything I write though, begin with Day 1, which was posted in June. It won't be too boring, I promise -- featuring crazy stalkers, an arrogant athlete who may not be such a jerk after all, et cetera. It's almost another story by itself.
Status of:
The Ecstasian Phantom - Chapter 14 Symphony has been posted. I doubt Chapter 15 Ballade will take another six months. But who knows?
Jko Eat World - On indefinite hiatus. I'm focusing on Phantom right now, so this one will have to wait until I am interested in it again... sorry.
Alexisabelle - If I am stuck in another writer's block, there is a good chance I may extend this vignette into a story. It will not be a full-length novel like EP -- if anyone has read Wasteland by Francesca Lia Block, that's the kind of style I'm going for.
Cue the Serenade - It was meant to be a very short one-shot. I don't plan on adding anything more to it.
