About Me
Pen Name: Silent Force
Age: 18
Grade: College Freshman
Gender: Female
Lives in: Somewhere in the USA...
Birthday: April 30
Favorite Stuff: reading, writing, music, drama, fantasy RPGs, foreign languages, traveling, chai tea, chocolate, turtles, DDR
My Writing Inspirations: My favorite TV shows (Lost, Heroes, House, and Whose Line Is It Anyway, the latter being for more humorous stories). Movies with clever twists, like The Prestige, Spirited Away, Ocean's Eleven, Groundhog Day, and Howl's Moving Castle. Books and authors of all sorts. For fantasy, I would definitely credit Ella Enchanted (my favorite book) and authors Anne Kelleher, Sharon Shinn, Juliet Marillier, Sherwood Smith and Jennifer Fallon. I also get ideas from Austen, Shakespeare, and Greek Mythology. Music by artists such as Imogen Heap, Butterfly Boucher, Within Temptation, Shiny Toy Guns, A Fine Frenzy, Delerium, KT Tunstall, Paramore, Enya, Hayley Westenra, and my two favorites, Keane and Jag Star. Fantasy RPGs like Golden Sun, Fire Emblem, Tales of Symphonia, Baten Kaitos, and Radiata Stories. And of course, real life.
Favorite Genres: Fantasy, Romance, Suspense, Mystery, Humor... I'll write almost anything, except horror and tragedy. I mean, sad stuff happens in my stories, but I like happy endings. Oh yes, and I dislike stories with excessive drugs, suicide, et cetera, so you'll scarcely see me writing about that sort of thing, either.
Works
Veiled Intentions
Caedra thought it was a twist of fate that pulled her on a strange journey into the lavish but also dangerous courts of Sederia. But when her mysterious past comes back to haunt her, she discovers it is much more. Now, it is her choice whether to save or destroy the land of Setena, and she doesn't know who to trust...
Status: First draft complete and under-going intense revision! I've put up an author's note about the re-write. The re-write is VERY different, but it's basically the same plot with the same characters. Don't worry; all of the good stuff is the same.
Changes to Expect in the Re-Write - 1.) Less of those darn kidnappings, haha. 2.) Some new characters and some old characters with different roles and endings (in particular, Fayden and Melsa). 3.) Tuning up of individual characters' plotlines and personalities (in particular, Averance, Jer, and Casandria). 4.) More mythology involving Irian and the Aegia.
Shadowed Intentions
The currently un-posted sequel to VI, which is from Quisa's POV and takes place 2-3 years after VI. I want to re-post it after I've gotten a good way through the re-write of VI. It's going to be different than the original, in that the plot will be changed entirely, but Quisa is still Quisa. I want to bring back as many characters from VI as possible.
Third Untitled Intentions
I plan to do a third story in the same world, probably focusing on the next generation of Setena (including the main characters' children). It might cover a longer period of time, like ten to fifteen years, so that you can see the kids when they're little and when they're older... Really dramatic stuff will happen.

Veil Soundtrack - Go on iTunes, go to iMix, search for "Veil" (in titles). There are just some songs I think fit into the story!
