OBNOXIOUS BOLDED IMPORTANT UPDATE CAPSLOCK CAPSLOCK CAPSLOCK: http://fruitbasket-novels.webs.com/

Hey readers! Thank you so much for taking your time to read my stuff, I hope you liked them, and thanks for viewing my profile!

Kiwi Writes:

I mostly write about everyday life. High school, etc. you know? I like to make a fun adventure out of things you see and go through every day. My philosophy is that if you can't make fun of yourself or your experiences, and if you can't laugh it off, you can't really experience life to it's fullest. I pull a lot of things from my stories out of things that I've experienced.

I also like writing one-shots. Those are always fun.

Recently I've gotten really interested in period pieces. I think that some particular eras are really interesting (e.g. the 20s, 40s etc.) so that might show up in my more recent writing (see Apples =P)

Kiwi Reads:

I'll read anything, I really don't have a preference (except for horror, which I've already made clear is definitely not for me). I'm not exactly a huge fan of slash, but I'll appreciate it if it's a well-written story and I've written one-shot slash stories anyway for some of my friends before so there you have it. I'm also not huge on autobiographies or war-stories or anything but like I said, I'll read it if it's well-written.

Kiwi Likes: new twists to old plots, well-devised plots (things that aren't rushed or leave ties), reviews, constructive criticism, romance triangles, fun characters, arrogant characters (hilarious to read if they're written well), good foreshadowing that you didn't catch until it's revealed, fanfiction writing, and good grammar (yes, you heard me).

Kiwi Dislikes: cliffhangers, flames, characters that seem totally perfect to a fake extent, those odd situations during which a minor character suddenly becomes amazingly huge with no explanation, 2D characters that only show "oh I'm bad and that's it" or "oh I'm the total noble hero and that's it" (unless the character is minor), and chapters that tend to repeat themselves.

A Medley of Stories, Oh Joy!

Apples--Three boys. Three seventeen year old boys. They were the best of friends. And in that one seventh year, the three of them were about to face the biggest challenges they could ever imagine. One holds a secret that can't be kept for much longer. One is struck with tragedy and seems to keep running when there's no place to go. And one...is about to realize that the right thing is never the easy thing. Peppered with ridiculous humor and antics, they stumble through Doling Boarding School. Humor fic, may or may not be part of a series. Set during the 1940s.

The Italian Side of Things--the baby of my fictionpress writing. This was an idea that came to me over the summer, however i didnt really get to do much with it until November when NaNoWriMo started and i actually acted upon impulse. This is the story about four people who have known each other since they were little kids. The bonds of friendship between them have either strengthen or been cut off completely. But what happens when these people take a vacation to Italy? Everything is turned around in a world full of culture, beaches, wonderful sights and of course hot boys and nightclubs full of underaged drunken people. Humor fic. ON HIATUS

Graduation Day: a poem I wrote about graduation. Nothing much, just a little something. I typed it up exactly the way I wrote it down that night, so even if there are improvements that I see I could have made, I'm not going to correct it because it takes away from the authenticity of the poem and how I felt that night. I normally edit my poems but this one I didnt feel right about editing, so i just left it.

Here I'll Stand: a poem I wrote for a contest; just a little something, a bit existential now that I look back on it, but whatever, you can be the judge.

The Takes: Snapshots of whatever the hell pops into my day to day activities. Life's a movie. Take one. Or two. Or three. Or five. Or ten. Action.

Character Play Bys:

Some people have PMed me about setting play-bys for a few of my stories. 'Apples' has been popular regarding that, actually, so I guess if I was to cast someone in the roles, they'd look something like this.
