1/18/13: Updates might take quite awhile, since I am still busy (and my months of inactivity have made me hit writer's block). Hopefully I'll be able to start writing again within the month and publish some chapters by the end of February. Thank you for your patience. :)

'Allo. I'm Vivace.Assai. Writing has always been a joy for me ever since I was little. Plus, I have a rather idealistic vision that writing can help change the world considering it is a form of communication and expression. I write for relaxation, and I'm here to improve my writing and share the inner musings of my psyche. So please delve into the worlds I've created and take a step into one version of the irrational and crazy world known as an author's imagination. I would much appreciate it if you did. Thanks!

Reviewing Policy

I tend to follow the policy of returning reviews. Since I'm always open to discovering new stories on this site and I believe in spreading the reviewing love, I might return a review on most of my stories depending on the review's detail. I will, however, return all reviews for my major works: The Memory Holder and any story in the Myte series (preferably the in-progress work).

"Yet being mine own, at length affection would
Thy blemishes amend, if so I could.
I washed they face, but more defects I saw
rubbing off a spot, still made a flaw.
I stretcht thy joints to make thee even feet
Yet still thou run'st more hobbling than is meet.
In better dress to trim thee was my mind
But nought save home-spun cloth, i' th' house I find.
In this array, 'mongst vulgars may'st thou roam.
In critic's hands, beware thou dost not come..."
- Excerpt from Anne Bradstreet's poem "The Author to her Book"
