about me: I carry a journal pretty much wherever I go, so while the subject matter is unpredictable, I generally write every day. I'm heavily into slash, and have begun trying my hand at writing romance, however short the pieces are. I am a student.
currently: I've been doing an exercise where I make lists of characters, locations, and problems, then roll a die (or shuffle cards) to see which ones I write about in a story. I'm currently writing a fairy tale based one one of these sets.
I've also become re-obsessed with a keyfiction and a chainfiction. Basically, they're stories about sex slaves and their masters. Keys are male slaves, Chains are female slaves. To train a Key/Chain, you write up a character description. To own a Key/Chain, you draw a picture or write a story/poem for them. It's great fun!

Do visit the sites and see the sights! You won't be disappointed. :)
current favorite authors: Charles de Lint, Octavia E. Butler, Neil Gaiman. Also, many authors of books on writing, including Pat Schneider, Natalie Goldberg, and Julia Cameron.
AN: All unfinished works are marked WIP (work-in-progress). Any work not marked WIP is finished, whether or not it has complete/oneshot/sketch in the summary.
Notes About Recent Removals: I have removed all the songs I posted, and most of the poetry. It's been years since I wrote much of what I posted, and upon rereading those pieces, I felt I could do better work.

"Though here at journey's end I lie
in darkness buried deep
beyond all towers strong and high,
beyond all mountains steep,
above all shadows rides the Sun
and Stars for ever dwell;
I will not say the Day is done,
nor bid the Stars farewell,"
~from Sam's Song, J.R.R. Tolkein's 'Return of the King'
