Writing status? Whoa... don't go there. Haha... -sweat- Currently I'm on hiatus due to uni and work commitments. I'm still writing but it'll take me time to PR, edit and PR again in order to make sure that I post the best writing possible.
BETA? Yup. I'm currently active as a Beta reader for those who are looking for one. See my Beta profile for more details. Edit: Quite a number of authors have approached me recently (much to my surprise!), I sincerely apologise for my late responses. Please don't feel rejected if I don't respond within a week... I'll make an effort to check my email at least once a week!
Current career life? I'm a full-time uni student doing a Bachelor of Arts degree (double major in "Linguistics and Applied Linguistics" and "Asian Studies"). On top of my degree, I'm also doing a diploma in Japanese. On the side, I'm working as a sales assistant for cosmetic products - which sucks out my free time.
Describe yourself in three words. A dignified eccentric.
Interests? Lots. However, my passions lie with writing, language studies and Japanese pop culture.
Your Blog? Currently I'm writing a blog related to Japanese culture. So, if you're interested, feel free to click my homepage link.
General message: I’m what you’d refer to as a “hopeless romantic” so I love reading romance stories as much as I love writing about them. I also enjoy other genres such as comedy, fantasy/supernatural and some drama (bit iffy on soapies). To my reviewers, I honestly cherish all of your comments - whether it'd be criticism or encouragement - so please, be honest if you feel that you're unhappy with something or simply am enjoying the story. I will thank you for your time and effort! Also, if there's anyone who'd like to have a reader/reviewer, I'd gladly oblige - just PM me!
I think that’s enough with the author intros so take care everyone and all the best!

The Status of Stories
(Last updated: 7th July 2008)
Twilight Series: Based in modern context. Introducing an era where most of the demonic races of the Netherworld have migrated into the human realms (Earth). As the series progresses, different characters will learn the truths behind this sudden phenomenon and also, hopefully find a way to save the falling Netherworld while fighting against an enemy force. They'll also be pulled into their own romantic endeavours as they struggle to overcome their personal problems.
Book 1 – Hunted: Work in progress. Chapter 5 is awaiting to be released.
Ms. Bitten and Mr. Smitten: A story between a human woman and a recently-changed vampire, whilst they are attracted to each other and have a rather comical relationship, both have dark secrets which they can't easily speak of. What will they do when the price of "leaving" those secrets alone is their relationship and possibly, the panda-obsessed-vampire's life? Chapters 1-3 editted. Chapter 4 in process.
Katchi Me: Coming Soon. One of the major reasons for my writing hiatus is related to my life. Hence, I've based a story on recent happenings. Yes, there'll be romance. Yes, there'll be supernatural things involved (of course, this facet is not true in real life haha... I wish though.). Chapter 1 in progress.
