BIG NEWS Y'ALL!! READ IT!
I can now be found on blogger.com as well. Here's the link: www.thefibonaccicafe.blogspot.com My blog is, as you can guess, called The Fibonacci Cafe. I hope you all enjoy it.
Also, we now have a blog devoted to the works on here (Mostly TAT)! It can be found at www.stephensjoint.blogspot.com It will be the place to check for hot news about the stories.
END OF THE BIG NEWS. PLEASE PROCEED WITH THE REST OF THE PROFILE!!
I lied! There's more news, this time concerning EP:
Huh...apparently people really like chapter six. 361 hits! That's a lot. In fact, the closest one to that is chapter one (as to be expected) at 143. Why do you people skip that way? Hm...
Well, /ahem/, anyway. I have once more begun progress on it. I'm sorry I've had such bad writer's block...it makes me look a like a bad person. So, I probably will get one more chapter up before school starts, and then I'll try to keep to a normal schedual of about once a month or so. Yep.
Alright, now the news is over. For realz? Like, OMG JA! (Ja is german for yes, in case you didn't know. It isn't more txt speak.)
Howdy y'all! You will be able to see below what I'm currently working on and what I'm planning. I will also use this as a sort of blog thing. Now, I feel it's important to warn you all:
I AM A SLASH WRITER!
This means that most, if not all, of my stories will be about gay people. That's right; I will write about people who are interested in those of their own gender. Don't like it? Then the answer is simple; don't frickin read the stuff. I hate it when people say, "Wha-ha-ha-huaga! Why do you write this stuff? It's disgusting! I can't believe I read that!" yadda yadda yadda...on and on. Listen, folks, I didn't not reach through the computer and make your finger press that little bitty button. I may want reviews, but I'm not that desperate.
Now, some of you may wonder why both of my stories focus on gay MEN. Well, the very simple fact is that so far I've only had ideas revolving around gay men. When I get an idea about some lesbians that I like, I will work on it. I actually have one right now...sort of, but I suck at writing fantasy stories, so it probably won't ever see the light of day.
Okay, on with ye olde profile.

~+Possible stories+~
Life Less Ambiguous - Yet another completely off the wall title. It has nothing to do with the story! This was one of many experiments in first person, and also became an effort to work on a vampire story. Not very far yet, so it probably won't be up for several months at least.
TAT - Backstories, character's stories, and side stories galore. You didn't think this was just one story, did you? Psht, silly rabbit! No, it's more of an empire of characters that just love to beat the crap out of my mind.
LAHS - Had a different title once, but the title doesn't really appeal these days. Anyway, it's going through some beautiful rewriting, but I may post it one day.
Now, for all of you people who read this far, a bit about me. I can be found on fanfiction and harrypotterfanfiction under this same name. For anyone who feels the need to connect with me, hop on over to myspace, as I can be found there as well. I really like communication from the outside world, so feel free.

My writing/posting process goes something like this (in case you actually cared...):
Brainstorm. This is huge! If I didn't have any ideas, we wouldn't be here, now would we? This actually, sorta, ties into the next step, which is:
Writing. I actually tend to avoid outlines because...well...I hate them. They don't seem to work. So, while I'm writing, if I have an idea, I write it out. Sometimes I will have as many as five word docs open with different pieces of the same story. Mostly, however, I use ~+()+~. That's my copout thing. I use that to remind myself that those parts of the story haven't been tied together yet, and need to be fixed. Edit: I'm really beginning to rethink the whole "No-outline" thing. Some of my stories are little bitches and the only way to beat them into submission is to use an outline.
Self-editing. I read through the whole thing and see if I've got any big, obvious mistakes. I have to say, though, that no matter how much I may love my story, it can get monotonous reading the same thing, like, fifty million times. That's why I have the next part:
Beta-edit. No, this doesn't mean I reasses my beta's value and beat her if she isn't good. This means I send it out to be edited by her. I can't catch everything (As she will tell you ~+(sweatdrop moment)+~) so she's a rather important person. Take a bow Cloudy! I couldn't do it without you girl!
Read past chapters: This may sound silly, but I like to read over the past chapters. This helps me make sure that everything fits together, and tells me what needs to be explained eventually.
And, finally, post. Yep. That's all. No big trumpet fanfare or anything, I just save all the changes and then send it up here. After that is the time I spend waiting oh so anxiously for your reviews. Yeppers...Okay...I'm done. Go read a story or two!
That's all for now folks!
I like getting ideas people! It keeps me young(er). So, anyone have any ideas they want to pitch me? Feel free to drop me a line and tell me.
