Did you see did you see!!! 1000 hits! HAHAHA!! Four digits! Yeah! Ok, so that's not so great for a page that's been up for nearly 8 months, but, hey, I think it's awesome! Oh, in case you didn't notice, there's a new section! I think this page should be renamed the story page, since that's all I really have up. :) Vampire fiction in the new section. Not just a whole lot there. As for Atonement I am experiencing a horrible writer's block. I wrote a couple of pages and they are horrible! Don't know what is wrong with me. However, I've been getting all these ideas for another story, which is original, so maybe it's been taking all my creative juices. As for the re-write of DS - that will happen as I think of it.. ha, when I have time! Don't know when that is going to be! Ren Faire season is starting up again, and school is not getting any easier, and work is taking up so much more of my time.. ah! But Little Tree's Vincent story is coming along fast, so read that! It's really good! Croik's page has got stuff up now too, so go there as well!

The Prologue for Atonement (sequel to Downward Spiral) is up! Chapter One will be along . . . eventually. Nothing else new.

I do apologize for my slacking! I thought spring break meant I would have time to write! Cha, right! Well, I did get some writing up, so expect the next part of my fanfic.. by later tonight (12-15 hours from now (it's 1am, I have to sleep first) or tomorrow. Croik's sent me stuff, I just haven't got it up yet. SOON SOON I PROMISE! Also, I am hosting Dracula: the Series fanfic now, so that is a new section you should see coming up shortly.

Just put a corrected version of "Interlude" (thank you, Croik, for finding all the mistakes I couldn't find after *three* readings!) along with a few minor changes and an author's note to explain things. I don't expect to be adding anything for a week. Have to catch up on school. Spring break next week, should be lots of new stuff then! Until then, read Little Tree's totally awesome Vincent story (in my fanfic section)!

Pretty much scratch that last entry - there is not going to be an epilogue - it was just too darn short, so I combined with the Interlude - which, by the way, I have finished. Pick yourself up off the floor. So you now know that I am capable of writing over 7000 words in 4 days... oh well, you woulda figure it out sometime.. don't expect it to happen all the time, I was just inspired..:) Go enjoy Interlude, I'm pretty proud of it. Also, the DS page, (which by the way, is not going to be just DS anymore) is kinda a mess, sorry, I don't have to time to clean it up. You can find your way around, it just doesn't look pretty. I'm putting up tables there, and I got delayed while I was working. I deal with it later this week! Enjoy all I have written!

Part two of Matters of Family is up. Also, all of the readers of DS - please go back and read the prologue again. Mainly because I just realized, as I was writing the epilogue - that there is a sentence in there that I did not complete that was very important that is was complete. Oooops. Well, it's fixed now. I expect to have the epilogue (it's short) and the Interlude up probably by the end of next week.

For once, I actually met a deadline I made for myself! Chapter Nine of my fanfic, Downward Spiral, is up! And -- it's a long one! I didn't really mean for it to be that long - but there wasn't enough left to write for another chapter, so I just put it all together. Yes, that's right! DS has come to an end. There might be an epilogue and/or an interlude written, then I will start Atonement. Also, I am going to do an overhaul on all the chapters of DS before I start the next part. I'll let you know when that's done. Again, none of the major plot points will have changed, just little bits and pieces and supporting work. Can't believe I actually made it this far! Thanks for all the support and patience. Also... part two of Matters of Family should appear by the end of the week.

Of you happened to be looking around my page the past day or so, you would have noticed some new stuff not yet mentioned in the updates. Yes, there is a reason for that. My server decided to up and die on me without so much as a by-your-leave. Several times. Anyway. I think things are all fixed up now, and server has deigned to work long enough for me to get this up. There is a new story in the "Short Stories" section - it's a fanfic I mentioned earlier (see previous update). Part One is all that's up, but more will be here soon - I have made some minor changes, but, there is going to be a fairly significant change to the end... Also, Chapter 9 of Croik's story is up.

FINALLY!! Chapter 8 made it to me in one piece, and now it's up - this is Croik's story, not mine (Downward Spiral). Coming soon A three part fanfic to the campy TV show, Dracula: The Series. Yes, it's the same story as I have on another page - with some minor changes. It's my story, so I can post it up here if I want! So there! Not that anyone was objecting... Anyway, I decided to put it up cause I read over it the other day and it just seemed to good to waste. Also, I *might* be able to get the next chapter of DS up sometime next week, school providing.

Changed the look of the main page, doesn't it look nice! Nothing else.

Obviously, I finally decided on a theme and name for my page! A cave! Well, cavern, actually. Why didn't I think of this before? It's not actually going to be about caves or cave things, but "dark" seems like a good idea. Close enough, anyway. BTW, Little Tree posted two new chapters of her Vincent story - and they are awesome! Go, read!

The link to the new fanfic is up on my fanfic page - it's a Vincent fanfic by the new author I mentioned. I also added a new section, quotes. Just really random thoughts, for those who are really really bored. Edited and added to the "about me" section again. Go read the new fanfic! :)

Nothin' big, just added a new link to the FF7 links - there might be a new fanfic from a new author showing up in the next day or so, so check back soon!

Haven't got those chapters yet - my computer is being tempermental. Sorry for all the weirndness the past couple days with the graphics, I finally got it all the way I wanted it! Doesn't it look nice? My brother helped me, thank goodness. I was completely lost. I think I am going to look into getting an editor, writing all this coding by hand is definately getting tedious!m 'Specially when I don't understand it! But the animated counter is working, and everything is where I want it to be, so I'm happy!

Been playing around with graphics that past couple days - why do they have to be so difficult? I don't really plan on putting up all that many picts, cause they take a lot of space. Any, Ink has a buddy, Doreal, and the counter on the main page is supposed to be an animated unicorn - I don't think it's working. Anyway. Work continues on my story. Croik is going to be sending me chapters 8 and 9 soon, so if you have been waiting for that, it should be up by the end of the week.

Got a little carried away with the book suggestions - there are now 116 or so books listed there - I have been meaning to expand that section for a while and, well, it's expanded! I also went a little counter crazy, put them on a lot of new pages. Why? Cause I want to see what areas are frequented most by the people who stop by here so that I can know which areas to concentrate the most on. Oh, one more thing. I just went over 500 hits! (on the main page) I think that's a good thing - then again, I've had this page up for nearly six months, so maybe that's actually a pitiful thing. Also, all links should be working - if they aren't let me know! (I keep saying that, for people to write me when there are problems with my page, but, so far, no one has. sigh...)

I've added a link or two, and started correcting the "Return to main links" - ought to have that finished tomorrow sometime. Also, I have added a new fanfic, by another author. It's really quite good, so I'm hoping it will hold you over until I get around to posting the next chapter of my story.

Sorry for the weirdness of the main page for the past couple days.. I still don't know what I did, but I think I got it back to normal - trying to get a gif up, that's what started the whole thing! Now that I fixed everything, I am going to go back to the gif! LATER. . . IT WORKED IT WORKED! Wee-heeeee! My very first picture! *manical laughter*

Chapter 8 of Downward Spiral (that's my fanfic) is now up! Wow, it's been a long time since I updated, but at least it's here now! I hope you will find it worth the wait. Hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Years, now it's time to get back to school .. and think about taxes! AH! :) As always, keep your fingers crossed it won't be so long to my next update.

Hmm... the first part of ch 7 doesn't want to work... It keeps staying large print and boldface.. ack! But part B is working! I just set it up, sorry I waited so long to put it up, I forgot I had not finished it...

It has been nearly a month! I can't believe that much time has gone by! I have Chapter 5 and 6 up of Croik's, and I hope to get Ch. 7 up shortly. Also, I put up Croik's email, so you can write how you like, or dislike, the story. I also updated the about me section, it's not so ... pissy... anymore... :) I am out of school now, but will be leaving to go skiing in a week.. I hope that I might finish the next chapter of my fanfic... keep your fingers crossed...

Not only chapter one of Croik's, but two, three, and four are all up as well! That's right, 1-4! Croik tells me that she has thru 13 done, so I will get them up as soon as she sends them. Oh, I will be out of town Thurs thru Sun, so I don't know if there will be any updates until Monday.

Added a new short story, about vampires this time! And is it a silly one! Good for a laugh, anyway. BTW, backgrounds will be changing periodically, as I am learning how to do this stuff. If a link stops working please please let me know cause I can't fix it if I don't know it's broke! Work on the next chapter continues, and Croik's chapter 1, now in two nice neat parts, should be up tomorrow or Wednesday.

Well, I am about ready to bash my head against the wall - why is this editor not working!!!!! AHHH!! I don't know what I did wrong with the coding, but it is not showing right (the way I want it), but, hey the Merlin story is up! I just spent that last two VERY FRUSTRATING hours working on it, but it's up - and yes, it's complete - so you don't have to wait for me to get around to writing the other parts. I hope all the links are working, they were for me, but if they go spastic, lemme know and I will have a looksy.

Yes, Chapter 7 is finally up!!! yippee! It's a little short, but oh well, it's still there! *laugh* I'm so happy I got it up, finally. I hope to have chapter 8 up by the end of this month. Will just have to see how busy I get.. Enjoy the story... Oh, I am also still working on getting Croik's story up, maybe I will work on that next... Also, if you are viewing this page with AOL, that background on the main page looks pink! That's not the color it's supposed to look like! Get Netscape and you should be able to appreciate that it's kinda parchment looking - much better than pink! AH!

Later! One more thing - since I can never leave my own writing alone, changes (usually minor phrase things) are going to be occuring all the time on chapters already posted. Most of the time, I am just making something flow a little smoother or less moronic, but sometimes, I add things that help explain stuff better. I probably won't mention the changes unless they are really big, so if you have been following the story all along.. I dunno what to say, other than every time I mess with previous chapters, they will get better... I feel that I am not really putting my all into this story, but then again, it's not like I can publish it or anything, so I don't won't to spend the time and effort on it that I spend on my real stories.. *laugh* you get the idea. Also... I am thinking about putting up some of my short stories... These are usually very short, with very little plot - they are just written for the heck of it kinda things.. The first one I am planning on is from an English project back in the 9th grade (wow, long time ago!) I have not changed it since I wrote it - but it's pretty neat all the same. It's a Merlin story, written from Merlin's point of view. Now that I am writing this update, think I will go ahead and put that thing up, being that I have just had 3 cups of coffee enhanced with chocolate and sugar - ie, I am probably not going to be going to sleep _any_ time soon..

If I had realized how busy I was going to be, I would have... probably done nothing different.. I know it's not nice to not update the fanfic, but I have been so busy! Things look like they are finally calming down now, tho, so after this week (5 tests!!!!!!!!!) I should be able to get back to work on it.. As for the main page - well, I had actually done that a few weeks ago, just didn't get around to fixing it up.. how do you like the new look? Lemme know.. I am going to try to put backgrounds of most of the pages.. BTW, I am looking for graphics - specially of Seph! - to add to my page.. I have seen a lot of good stuff out there, and plan on asking those people if they would allow me to use their awesome picts on my page, but if you have any you would like to share - just no cutesy stuff... (and nothing obscene, duh!)

It does not look like I am going to able to do any updates at least til the end of October - I have way too much going on with haunting, work, school, and other stuff. Sorry for the wait!

Well, obviously, I have been really busy! Work, school, Hawkwood (ren faire), and other stuff have really been eating at my time. I am working on chapt 7, and it's coming along.. slowly... I did add to the very last paragraph of chapter 6, not much, but it kinda left off in the middle of a thought, so I figured I'd add a little more there.. think I was kinda tired when I wrote that... kinda VERY tired... anyway, I hope to have chapt 7 up next week or the week after... for while Hawkwood is now over, Haunting season has begun! I am plannin on working at "Haunted Hawkwood" weekends during October, so there goes my spare time. Bear with me, it's just another month! Halloween will be come and gone before you know it! Working at haunted houses is something I have been doing for 6 years now, and I have a lot of fun with it. Try it some time!

Chapter 6 is up! You can blame the nice people who read it and told me to write more for that.. :) I respond well to praise and begging, send more! It might seem a little rough, but something quite important had to ironed out, whether you realize it now or not. Keep on bugging me, and Chapter 7 might be out soon... oh, if you stopped by earlier today, I had put up the link for Ch. 6 before I finished writing it, so go back and there's more for you to read! I also added a link, and I have seen that a few very very nice people have added my page to their links! Thank you very much! A note about the fanfic located on the links I have - I am trying to limit fanfic links to the absolute best stories I have come across. After seeing lots of pages, I have decided I don't want upteem million links, cause will usually not visit any of the links when they see so many. So those fanfics I do have link are top notch! I read most all fanfic I can find, if you have suggestions, let me know. Also, just a few observations. Anyone else noticed that a lot of people think that Aeris/Sephiroth is a much better match than Aeris/Cloud? I never thought about that during the game, but now it does seem to make sense. How did that happen?? Let me know what you think, I might put a section up about why people think Aeris/Seph is better than Aeris/Cloud.

Well, I just happened to check the links for my fanfic again, and now the areworking, but not because I did anything to them! I guess geocities just had a hiccup! So go enjoy the story again. I am going to try to add more when I actually have a time to breathe! Hawkwood, the ren faire I am gonig to every weekend, ends the last weekend of this month, so I should have more time after that. Thanks for being patient!

I added a new fanfic by another author, Croik! Right now, I only have the prologue cause I am arguing with the file manager about the length of the chapters. I hope to get that resolved sometime tonight after I get home from work. I also completely mangled the links and stuff on my own fanfic, so that is currently NOT WORKING.. arg! I will try to get it fixed as soon as possible. Later tonight, or maybe later this weekend.

Changed the "about me" section - has a lot more about me now! So if you are really really bored, go read! :)

It's been a long time since I have done any updates, and, unfortunately, it's probably going to be longer. School and work have caught up to me (I'm starting my second year of college) and I am just way too busy! I am still working, rather slowly, on the Seph fanfic. Yes, I know there are a lot of typos - I'm working on fixing those! Hopefully, I will have some time next weekend to work on some more stuff. Oh, for anyone who has art they would like on my page, I will be happy to put it up! Hey, I did manage to install a counter - this should be fun!

I played around today more than I should, and now I am all confused again! I am trying set up a different page for the fanfic but.. I dunno, I think my brain is fried. I did set up another page just for links, and added a lot more links too. The page is approaching, tho certainly not yet reached, a stage where I think it can be called "decent." Not bad for some who just started this stuff 5 days ago!

Not a whole lot accomplished... again.. I did put up an About me section, as well as figure out what Subdirectories are for! I am trying to plan out my page on paper so that it makes more sense... if you want your page links to me, just go ahead and let me know, and I will post it.

I had to work today, so I not getting a whole lot done. I took down one of the HTMLs, but there are plenty more to take it's place. I got book suggestions up, and I am working on changing background colors. I think I am going to leave the Seph Fanfic with the grey background/black writing cause I think that is easy on the eyes. If you don't think so, vote by emailing me! I really want to get a counter, so I guess I am going to have to look into that. I am also going to work on cutting up the Seph FanFic into smaller portions, to give it more readability.

Later... Well, I managed to get the Fanfic into bite-size portions, tho for some reason it is still not showing all the changes that I have. I'm too tired to keep working with it, so I guess I will try again tomorrow night. I should note that I am really surprised at how little space I am using! :) This is as good thing! I added a little bit more at the end of the fanfic, as there was room now for me to do so. I don't have a whole lot more written, so things will slow down now. I know that I need to read the whole thing thru, cause there are some things I don't follow thru on! Well, enough, and good night!

My first day! I just got this page today, and I think I have really learned a lot, but I have so much more to learn! I hope that many kind souls will take pity on me and let me know how to fix things up. I have gotten two links up, and also have two working HTMLs, however, the Seph fanfic I edited after I first put the link, and now it won't show the updated version for some reason! Yet, when I go into the edit area, it shows it! ACK! I hope that people start visiting, for now, I just have to keep on working on it. I might not get a whole lot done during the next 5 days, as I will be working a lot, but I will certainly try! Later Hey, I got the fanfic stuff to work now, so read to your delight. I will post as much as I have and update it often.
