                <description><![CDATA[ Woo hoo!  As of two days ago, I completely finished A Hikari's Love, and A Hikari's Betrayal.  Now both of them are on their way to being edited by my lovely editor.  In other words I suggest sending the puppy-dog-eyes her way if you want to see it updated.  Then I edit "Checkmate" (and spend about 3 hours uploading everything @.@) and everyone is happy!  Sooo... assuming I can harrass my roommate into editing quickly, my laptop doesn't fry (for the umpteenth time), and I can get a few hours spare time, everything should be uploaded within a month or so.  (I want to say a week but look what happened the last time I tried to guesstimate update times >.&lt<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /><br /><br />On a more personal note, I have a new kitten!  My dad found her, I adopted her and her name is Nutmeg.  ^_^<br /><br />EDIT:<br />ARgh!  One day, ONE DAY, I shall learn to not prod Murphy when it comes to updating.  My laptop has a virus.  More than likely it will be dead soon... as in completely everything lost dead.  Thank God I just backed up everything. Unfortunately, once I get my chapters back from my editor, there is no telling when I'll be able to update.  *sigh* <br /><br />Summaries of Current Stories:<br /><br /><br />Black and Gold Hikari<br /><br />Raeya Hikari is the leader of a powerful mercenary band.

                <description><![CDATA[ Urgh.  I was so close, so close!  My Tarence and Lillian sidestory was almost completed, and A Hikari's Love was down to it's last 2 chapters.  Then my awful laptop fries it's motherboard for the second time in a year.  It is now on it's way back to the manufacturer, and they told me it would take 2-4 weeks for it to return.  If the result is anything like the last one, it will be another three months before I can get it back.  What does this mean for my wonderful readers?<br /><br />That you will probably be left at that awful cliff hanger for a lot longer than I originally intended.  I was hoping to have my sidestory, the next chapter (seven, am I on?), and the epilogue all out on the same day, sometime in march, if not late Feb. in order to make up for leaving you at the end of six (I'm assuming it was six I should really check).  Whether or not I end up stuck at this point depends on where I last backed up my writing on my jumpdrive. Honestly, I haven't had the heart to check yet, because I'm pretty sure I'm about 6 pages behind, if not much much more.  I should never have stopped writing everything down by hand first. >.<<br /><br />Even so, I may just deal with it and rewrite what I have lost, and be able to have everything out by the end of March, mebbe early April.  Rest assured that when I do update, it will be with the final two chapters and a large (much larger than I originally intended) sidestory starring Tarence and Lillian.  A veritable cornucopia of goodness. ^_^  I may even put up a teaser of my next project as a peace offering for the horrible wait.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Soo...Let's see.  A quick journal wouldn't hurt I suppose.<br />
<br />
So I've moved to college.  Not as great as I was told it would be.  Mainly cause I'm not a stay up til 3 go to class at 7 type of person.  And my floor is full of these people denying me my sleep. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/f/fork.gif" width="37" height="18" alt=":fork:" title="Stabbed with a Fork!" />  There is one wonderful thing however, I have managed to discover the Society for Creative Anachronisms.  These people are awesome.  They're the people you see at the faires with the swords and the costumes and all that.  I've got a video if you wanna see more cause I don't feel like explaining it all.<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ So I noticed I've been here for a few months and I've decided I needed to do some sort of journal. (That and I am really really bored right now.)<br />
<br />
First off I am not an artist, but a writer.  I've tried drawing but it's never really worked out and I'm much better at writing anyway.<br />
<br />
Secondly, I hate flamers.  Ya don't like something, don't leave a freakin comment saying nothing but "I don't like such and such." and not say anything about the artwork.  Come on!  Not only is it a waste of the artist's time and yours, but also all the people who read your comment and manage to work themselves into a frenzy getting annoyed over the situation. It's just flat out rude to mock something the artists obviously likes, and just completely ignore the actual artwork.  People who say, "Well I don't really like this subject, but the shading and tones are marvelous." or something to that effect, I  love you.  You deserve a cookie.<br />
<br />
Thirdly, I'm a straight A student who graduated valedictorian who loves video games, was insane about pokemon, and is currently rabid about Naruto, Yu-gi-oh, and Full Metal Alchemist.  And Inuyasha.  And DNAngel. *thinks*  I think that's all for now.  And I'm a chick.  I was also an archeress.  So I rock. Ha.<br />
<br />
Shifting gears to fourthly, feel free to read my fic, (hopefully ficS when I get the sequel written in a few months...), comment, and if you lurved it muchly, to possibly do a fan drawing. *nudge nudge wink wink* So anywhoo...<br />
<br />
Check out the following people, cause they rock:<br />
<a href="http://soranu.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/o/soranu.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="soranu" /></a>  <a href="http://kandiesquirrel.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/k/a/kandiesquirrel.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="kandiesquirrel" /></a>  <a href="http://ktshy.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/k/t/ktshy.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="ktshy" /></a>  <br />
<br />
And Worship these people:<br />
<a href="http://evilsetokaiba.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/e/v/evilsetokaiba.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="evilsetokaiba" /></a>  <a href="http://hail-nekoyasha.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/h/a/hail-nekoyasha.png" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="hail-nekoyasha" /></a> <a href="http://kacfrog711.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/k/a/kacfrog711.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="kacfrog711" /></a> <a href="http://lizeth.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/i/lizeth.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="lizeth" /></a><br />
<br />
Writers who I admire immensely:<br />
