Hard work willing, I hope to have the first book published mid 2012. As a result, <b>BtB</b> remains on the backburner but is <i>NOT</i> forgotten. I have every intention of returning to finish the series at some stage in the future, but alas, it doesn’t pay to write fanfiction (I truly wish it did!) and I can easily see myself giving too much of my time/energy/passion over to writing a fanfiction series and neglecting the stories I wish to tell with my own characters, be they ninja, soldier, warrior or otherwise.</p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; "> <b>ORIGINAL NOVELS: </b>in progress. First book coming 2012. For a little more insight into the characters and their world, pictures/artwork can be found on my dArt<b>Original</b><b> Works Homepage (see above)</b>. If you've enjoyed my Naruto fanfiction then that's an indication of how I tackle character interactions, yaoi/slash/het relationships and drama/action/character-centred storylines...I like to get deep and gritty but also keep the humour coming, so the same can be said for my original works and characters. For those of you who've expressed interest in reading my original works, I'll keep this profile page and my dArt page updated on the progress of the novel(s). Thank you so much for all your support.</p><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; "> <hr /> <p> <b style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; ">•.¸¸.••.¸¸.

Humour is pivotal in most of my writing, no matter how dark a fic gets. I think that balance keeps it real (or at least I hope it does!). Yaoi/Het. I'm intrigued by human "character" - the human psyche and spirit fascinate me.</p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; "> <b>LIKES: </b>Creativity, music, open-mindedness, philosophy, mythology, good conversation, nature, tea, <i>passion</i> and a good sense of humour are always welcome in my world. I make creative expression/ideas my playground. Simple things move me, the raw and the real. I love beauty, just a different kind.</p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; "> <b>FANDOM(S) I WRITE: </b>NARUTO (yaoi and het)</p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; "> <b>IMPORTANT Note/warning </b><i>While I write yaoi, I don't write it using the "seme"/"uke" mentality. I don't pigeon-hole characters' personalities by the conventions of a sexual preference. I like blurring lines, not defining them. I play with characters in the grey area, not the black and white.</i></p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; "> Any <b>feedback</b> from those who are kind enough to take the time to read my stories would be greatly appreciated!</p><hr /><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; "> <b>•.¸¸.••.¸¸.
