Author has written 6 stories for Humor, Romance, General, and Play.

I've finally uploaded the fantasy story that's been in the works for 4 years now. I've had the first chapter done 4 years ago but it wasn't until recently I really cracked down and finally began writing beyond that. Oh sure, I've been brainstorming within those 4 years (when I wasn't distracted with something else or swamped with life and schoolwork) but I am happy to finally upload it, and I welcome any comments, constructive criticisms and reviews.

About my old, old stories that I haven't updated in forever. It's been years since I updated them and although I still have the ideas for each one, especially MtI since I actually planned out the whole story, I just have problems actually writing them. On top of life and university getting busier and busier. I may, someday, complete MtI since sometimes I regret not getting to some of the later scenes that I planned out in my head. Not Everything is Black and White, sad to say, is pretty much dead.

Currently Writing:

Tales of a Dysfunctional Odyssey

Genre: Fantasy/Adventure/Humor/Parody/Friendship/dash of Drama here and there
Rating: T
Summary: It all began in prison. Y’know where most adventures begin. Put a cynical Mage with a love for plums, a poor Peasant Boy with a penchant for stealing, the arrogant Prince of Etheleen, and a wandering Mercenary searching for knowledge, in addition to an amnesic teenage Girl who’s not what she seems together. Work of fate? Maybe. Preventing the destruction of Worlds? Yeah right. More like bringing madness and mayhem on a fruit filled journey of misadventures

Comments: I'm going to try my best to update weekly. My goal is to get Part I done by the end of the summer. Then my updates will probably be way more sporadic once uni starts again in the fall. This is my first really "serious" work (serious as in I take it seriously, not on the actual content though it can become quite serious in some places), and it's going to be my longest work. It's also going to focus a lot more on the characters, their interactions and dialogue than the plot. This is not to say there isn't a plot but it is rather meandering. Oh, also look forward to a map of the world sometime in the future which will be available on this profile.

Status on next chapter: Ch. 5 - writing, editing/revising


On Indefinite Hiatus:

Melting the Ice

Genre: Romance/Drama
Rating: T
Summary: Just how dangerous can my life get after saving a wounded boy on the street? Oh, I guess I forgot to mention that he's the leader of a notorious gang. Oh dear...
Status on next chapter: ch. 13 - writing

Discontinued:

Not Everything is Black and White

Genre: Humor/Drama
Rating: T
Summary: So I enroll into this supposedly prodigious school. The students are pompous idiots who split themselves between the Blacks and Whites based on uniforms. Stupid right? That's what I thought before I met the leader of the two groups.They're twins. I should also mention they hate eachother's guts.
Next updated time: to be determined


Completed Works:

"Balloons"

Genre: General
Rating: K
Summary: A single round, red balloon for a single little girl. What it leads to is something more. A dream? A delusion? Or simply reality?
Notes: The fantasy tag really isn't a proper genre for this. It's not really in any genre. It was just something I wrote in my creative writing class. It is supposed to be surreal and feel dream-like though.

"The Funeral"

Genre: Play/Humor
Rating: K
Summary: A man is at a funeral waiting for the rest of the guests to arrive. Instead, he is greeted by a none-too-thrilled black, talking toucan.
Notes: Play written for my creative writing class. It's the first play I've ever written, and I had fun writing it. Also my first attempt at black comedy.

"Look to the Sky"

Genre: General/Drama
Rating: T
Summary: He has always hated the setting sun and its red color that reminded him of the constant heat of anger in his house. Until he meet her, an unusual girl who's always looking at the sunset. One-shot.

Notes: One-shot written for my creative writing class. Being a short story, I found it best to focus on the thoughts of the main character.

"The Heroine's Journey"

Genre: Humor
Rating: K
Summary: Based on the hero's journey motif. Saturnite Jamie has to save Santa, her little brother and her home planet Saturn by going into... an old wardrobe?

This story was a collaborative assignment done in my English class, making each of 5 groups in the class write up a part of the story based on the Hero's Motif. The groups did not know what each group wrote. Then each of the groups got a copy of all the parts and put the story together using transitions, and this was what my group came up with.
