Profile Updated: 03/28/08
I have always enjoyed writing but have never had the good fortune to make a full-time career out of it. I have also been too lazy to go through the arduous process of trying to become a published author. So although I have been writing short stories and a few novella-length stories for years, I never published anything. And now the Internet has caught up with me and allowed me an outlet for my creative passion that costs me nothing but a little effort. I love the modern age!
I started out posting mostly fan fiction on-line because my oldest daughter (her nickname is Riyo) got me started writing anime fan fiction. I still write a lot of fan fiction and have something of a reputation for turning out steamy yaoi stories. This might seem a little scandalous to some of you, since I am the mother of two daughters: one in college and one in high school. But I like yaoi, so there! And yes, they read my stories. I often use them as sounding boards for ideas.
But these days I probably write more original fiction than fan fiction. I post my really naughty original fiction on mediaminer dot org, which accepts X-rated stories. On this site I am posting what I consider to be my "serious" stories. I am also considering posting some of my really old stories here, too. Some of these stories I first started as much as twenty years ago. Most of my original fiction stories are fantasies, so you will find the majority of my stories in that category. But I do have one old story that I started and never finished that is pure science fiction. I rather liked that story, so I may dust it off and finish it.
So that's me in a nutshell. Oh, if you want to find anything I've written on other sites, I use the same penname everywhere I'm registered. Google seems to know all about me.
Reader Response Section
I'm amused. An anonymous reviewer just pointed out that my kings don't have a good survival rate. Sadly, it's true. I do seem to kill them off pretty heartlessly. I feel kind of like Disney movies where children seemed to lose mothers at an alarming rate. I promise I'll try to write at least one story where the king does not die or end miserably! Ok, that's a cheap promise. In the already-planned sequel to The Wizard of Bright Isle, my beloved Prince Edouard has become king and I could never do permanent harm to such a sweet boy!

p.s. I periodically re-read my completed stories (because if you don't like your own writing, why post it?) and if I find typos or other mistakes, I will post corrections to the chapters. So if you see chapters in one of my completed stories being updated, that's why.
p.p.s I want to add one thing about how I rate my stories. If I rate a story T (teen), that means readers 17 and under can show their parents what they are reading without worrying too much about what their parents might think. If I rate a story M (mature), that means readers 17 and under might want to evaluate their relationship with their parents before letting them see what they're reading. My warnings will always tell you why I consider the story to be for mature readers. I don't want to get my teen readers in trouble!
