Hello to one and all!

I call myself Pandora because her curiosity certainly made life more interesting, didn't it? Pandora no hako is simply Japanese for Pandora's Box, and I hope that my writing might unleash a few mischiefs of its own.

I've been writing on and off for most of my life, and after completing NaNoWriMo in 2007, I finally decided that I should join a website like this one and take that big, scary step of sharing my words with the world.

I've been published once, about 10 years ago, and I haven't submitted anything else since. I have a total of three novels in varying stages of completion, though I think two of them will eventually be combined into one (hopefully) coherent piece.

I tend to write about vampires, though I have been known to step out of that box on occasion. Stranger things have happened, I suppose. The piece that I published was erotica, and I still dabble in that genre, as well. I also have a fascination with microfiction, because I find it more challenging to express myself in 100 words than in 50,000. Every November, NaNoWriMo is my life, and I am proud to say that I reached the 50,000 word goal in 2006, 2007, and 2008!

I write because I love to, and I'm always open to comments and constructive criticism, because as we all know, there's no such thing as a 'finished' story.

After all, life is about the journey, not the destination.
