Before you endevour to read any of my stories, here's some information about what i like to write about on fictionpress:
1. I like happy endings
2. I like the presence of more substance in a romance story than just romance (such as growth or realisations of some truths in life)
3. I live on cliches. Yes - no matter what, no matter how original you try to be, someone has done it before you. If you're the true original, you're a genius.
4. I'm into music. Music is part of my life and thus it's part of my character's lives too. I always write with music and am influenced by it to how i write. As you will/would have realised, a lot of my stories are focussed on music in one way or another
5. I'm into the best friend guys as being the soul mates. Yes - they are usually hot too (both inside and out) :P Or a hate relationship between the girl and guy ending with love
6. I write how i feel and what i know, hence i try to make characters as real and relatable as possible
7. i like pretty things
8. When i start a story i like, i will finish it really quickly (if i've lost passion about it, i may take awhile to revamp or never finish it)
9. I like all my characters to be different
10. I write what i want to read in a story
I hope you enjoy any story on this fictionpress site, although i highly advise that you avoid reading the stories i have written earlier in my life. As many writers of ficpress and even off will tell you, after every story, a writer grows and learns so much more about writing stories and about themselves. So too, i have changed and so has my style of writing - for the better, i hope - and so i'd highly advise you stick to my most recent stories.
Story statuses:
Vraie Beaute: My current project and so far, most exciting project.
This story has a difference to my other stories in that i've been putting more of my heart and soul into it. The chapters are longer and more eloquent and the threads throughout the story will run more deeply as, besides love, it also explores social heirarchy, judging others and family relations. Pulled together, it not only is loosely based on Beauty and the Beast but, for me, displays the mistakes that we as humans make and the ability to overcome these not only by finding love but by finding ourselves.
Cliche, i know...but who doesn't love a good cliche that gives hope? =)
PART ONE IS COMPLETE!! I'm sorry for any who feel especially pained for the ending...i hope to make the end of part two the most blissful possible.
Less than ONE MONTH before the teaser for part two!
Apologies for any typos or gramatical errors. In order to put chapters up quick, i don't proof-read and leave it to my beta who right now is on holidays. When she comes back, i promise to fix it all up.
Please review as this story has definitely taken more work than all the rest.
Check out the NEW story blog!: http://vraiebeaute.blogspot.com/
Site includes polls, facts about the story, how the story came about, soundtrack, photos and more!
Pictures of the Carter Kids are now up!
Welcome to Reality: Beta-reading has finished (again, Stylo is utterly amazing and you should check out her wow-zer essay i have favourited) and i am now slowly putting the chapters up. Also decided to add some of Justin's perspectives, but not consecutively, but just at crucial parts to give a little inside on the Prince who we all love.
Not much more to say, except that i'll be posting each chapter about every four days. It's harder for me to write Justin's perspectives now i'm on Vraie Beaute's case, but thanks for all new readers and old.

Being a Fair Lady: I will be doing a mass revision after my revision of "Welcome to Reality" and my writing of "Vraie Beaute" including more perspectives from Jason, better background on Iz's past and more scenes in the Duchess Frances School for Ladies. With my maturing writing style as every year goes by, i'll be writing it over again from scratch and will hopefully do both Iz and Jason more justice than i first gave them. Stay tuned!
I am also a member of youngwriters101 - lovely group!! :)
Coming soon:
Supernatural romance with a twist. Think undead princes, terrible curses and an unrestraint love which may cause an outpoor of forbidden secrets.
Currently scaffolding and character planning. May not be on fictionpress if ends up publisher-worthy.
