Writing, roleplaying, and drawing are all necessary retreats for me. There is little else I could say that would be relevant, other than I greatly dislike senseless profanity, so if you could please keep that in mind when communicating with me. I wish I could say my writing is clean, but I must digress, I tend to dapple in violence and suggestive themes. My writing, however, is not explicit. I simply enjoy diving into the inherent evil in people, because it's what people fear the most, whether in others or themselves. This is NOT, however, a theme you'll find in all of my writing. I just tend to throw in those dark gray characters.
I write mainly high fantasy, but my most prominent story right now is in a modern setting and has vampires. I inherited a grudging appreciation for vampires from my vampire-obsessed sister (she's written at least eight vampire stories - well - started writing them anyway). To speak further, my style of writing tends to rely heavily on dialogue and introspection. While I do have action sequences in most stories, they tend to be few and far between, and often short lived. Most of my stories can be sparce or inconsistent with imagery or descriptions, EXCEPT for Lost Dimensions: Tearing the Veil. That one has a lot more descriptive prose.

Waiting for Sunrise: Near completion. 33 chapters are up, and chapters up to 27 have had some editing done; some more minor than others. There are still likely mistakes, but I have mainly tightened up (or expanded in some places) dialogue and tried to scout for continuity errors.
I already have ideas for a sequel. I'm thinking it will start with a newscast about an excavation team digging up a beautiful gold statue, supposedly of a Greek Goddess or heroine, although her identity is not yet determined. The pose and expression of anger are eerily lifelike. Disregarding the strange vibes from it, the mystery statue is placed at an exhibit, whereupon chaos ensues.
Lost Dimensions: Tearing the Veil: A new story is up, with only 5 chapters currently. Lost Dimensions is going to become a series, Tearing the Veil being the first installment. I am starting off Lost Dimensions: Tearing the Vail purely of my own creation and effort, but it will quickly become a co-operative project between myself and an old friend. She is not on FictionPress, and does not have an established online Penname - and giving her real name would be rude, so when her influence sets into the stories (I'll still be the dominant writer) I'll figure out how she wants credit to be given then.
Story X?: I have a few stories sitting on my harddrive, and a few in an old dusty binder somewhere, and once I feel I've gotten Lost Dimensions rolling, and have finished Waiting for Sunrise, I may bring in yet another story. Three of them are all fantasy in original worlds, but none as complex as the Lost Dimensions setting. I've considered writing a story where I impliment myself but give myself so awesome powers, some of which I use to make myself hot and attractive, and then I'll take down everyone who pissed me off... okay... I'm joking.
