I am 20, I am a woman, and I love romance. Seriah Black is my pen name.

I am currently writing my personal rendition of Beauty and the Beast. It is not at all like the Disney version--or the original, for that matter--so it is not a fanfiction. I am using the idea of a beauty, a beast, and a romance, by different means to a different end.

Beauty and the Beast: As of 25 January 2010...THE UNOFFICIAL HIATUS IS NOW OFFICIALLY OVER!! New inspiration has hit. The chapters will begin moving again soon.

Based upon the poll results, there DOES seem to be desire for a new male character. I am inclined to grant that request. Feel free to make any other character requests: I plan to add several more characters, suggestions are welcome.
