Hey everyone! I'm twenty one years old and live in Massachusetts. I go to college in Boston, where I study writing.

I started working on Princess of Fire during the summer of 2003 off and on. I have been drawing the 3 central characters since my freshman year in high school(2001). My favorite color's purple, and I like reading, drawing, playing video games, and all kinds of cartoons and comics. And by the way, my nickname "Tesh" is pronounced "Teesh" (I love spelling it with one e!).

This is my first time submitting stories online and I hope I receive positive feedback. Thanks for reading!

I admire many authors such as Barbara Kingsolver, J.R.R Tolkien, Anna Quindlen, Tamora Pierce, Margierie Kellogg(gotta check spelling! o.o;; ) Anyhoo, The Dragon Quartet is Teh Awesome), Ann Martin, Judy Blume, and JK Rowling.

Again, thanks for reading! And be sure to check out my "Blurb" for updates on story news and comments!

About my Stories

Princess of Fire (Version 2.0): A firey Princess, sixteen-year-old Kuja of Felinia, is desperate to escape her mother, father, and all things ladylike. She wants to become a warrior. This story follows her numerous adventures, good and bad. The story also follows the life of sixteen-year-old Hakkana Ember, a tomboy with a tragic past, and the experiences of nine-year-old Sepoña Atalanta. Find out what happens when the three of them eventually become warriors and take part in an age-old battle between two races, Cat-people and Fairies. This is my main story. On going

The True Legend of The Huntress: This tale focuses on Sepoña's mother, Chartruse Atalanta. It follows the unbiased truth of her journey to becoming "The Huntress," and living with Fairies. It also explains the truth behind Chartruse's meeting of her husband and the birth of her daughter. This is a story-within-a-story that shouldn't surpass Princess of Fire. I think. On Hiatus

A Royal Disappointment: Prequel to Princess of Fire! This 3 partshort story focuses on only Kuja. King Medwin and Queen Cassandra have a daughter,who turns out to be theexact opposite of thier expectations. Part 1 concerns Kuja's birth, Part 2 is a scene from her childhood, and Part 3 is a scene from her teen years. Part 2 of this story reveals thefirst time Kuja wants to become a warrior. Anyhoo, enjoy! This story is COMPLETE!! :D

Christmas in Felinia: Surprise! A Christmas story!! Kuja and co. celebrate Christmas at Hakkana's apartment. Full of Holiday fun:D One shot, and it stands alone from POF, just so you know.

Destined Hearts: The myth of the Butterfly Spirit, Gia, and the Elf, Erik, the Mother and Father of the Fairy race. Find out what happens in this story of their love, which started it all. Has fate brought them together? This story was briefly mentioned in the POF chappie "Butterfly Dance." It's part o' my final project for Drawing From Mythology. COMPLETE!! Woot! XD

A Lonely Holiday: A Christmas story I wrote a couplea weeks before the published date on FP. A little girl named Sarra gets unexpected help from an angel. -smile- One shot.

Working Girl: In need of a job, Hakkana gets hired on the spot at a department store. This is my 1st attempt at writing humor, so let me know how it is, k? On Hiatus

A Royal Christmas: Princess Kuja spends her Christmas in Olde Crown Village, and actually feels like she belongs. One shot.

Warmth: A story written for my Creative Writing class this semester, about a relationship in which appearance does not make a difference. Not related to the POF world, however. One shot.

Blurb!

11/2/08

I will no longer be posting "blurbs" when I put up new chappies on my stories. They will be here instead. It's to give you guys a heads up on story news. It will also give my profile some variety. I will also ask some questions sometimes, so I'll ask you to send me a PM if you want. I decided to update the Blurb at times I need instead of every week.

HIGHLY Important Note: Well, after months of disappointment, I'm back with the new version of POF. Please enjoy it. :D

POF chapter 4 is finally up! Enjoy! I'm sorry about the long stretch with no update. :(

I'm working on a collab with Casey! It started out as a story, but now we're turning The Equals into a WEBCOMIC! Fuuun!

The True Legend of the Huntress (aka TLH) has been on hiatus for a long time. I will be getting to it, but I'm focusing on the new POF for now.

A closing comment: My fanfiction.net account sn is "Teshgirl," just like on FP (Yep, I am NOT good at coming up with creative screennames. o.o;; XD). Check it out:D www.fanfiction.net/~teshgirl

Love,

Tesh : )
