 Anyway, I came up with my first fic idea centered around Robotech (especially the novels) and my original character Kysra.  Of course, the idea (though I have half of the darn thing written) was later dubbed 'trash' by me but I couldn't let go of Kysra and in 1997 I got the internet and was introduced to the wonderful world of fanfics.  It wasn't until 1998 that I got a webpage (a rather sucky one too if you ask me) but I wasn't going by Kysra just yet (I was going by ghandi but don't ask, long involved story).  In late 1998, I finally got started on the Cenayan Prophecy after nearly three years of studious planning, and in 1999 I set up a webpage totally dedicated to it ^_^  And THAT was the first time I ever used Kysra or Guardian Kysra as my screen name!  Now I'm a fanfic junkie turned fanfic writer . . . imagine that!  And I'm still an anime addict in the extreme ;-;  *shakes head*  I just wanna thank Momiji Hime for being so kind as to introduce me to the wonderful world of fansubs WAHAHA!!!  hehe  *ahem*</div> <bR> <div> Now, to business!</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <U> <A NAME="story_status"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A></U><U>Story Status</U></div> <bR> <div> TCP:  Currently being rewritten and replanned.</div> <bR> <div> Miracles:  I have a rather general plan but no specifics except for the very end.   I already have the sequel to THIS in the works *groans*</div> <bR> <div> Slayers Untitled:  Momiji Hime and I have been neglecting this one for awhile, probably because we have like hardly ANY feedback on it *hint hint* BUT I have discussed it with her and we should be getting to writing some more soon.</div> <bR> <div> Slayers Chronology:  I'll have the 2nd Chapter out one of these days hehe.  Again, feedback would be nice ^_^</div> <bR> <div> Made of You:  Good lord, this is probably the most popular story on the site!  I'm so proud *sniffs*  I hope to have it completed SOMEDAY.  If I could get passed chapter 13 (which I have nicknamed the bad luck chapter), I'd be happy.  There will be a sequel.</div> <bR> <div> False Engagements:  Another popular one!  I'm glad to see a rise in TB/RP supporters!  I hope to have this one finished shortly after Made of You!  I've already begun the sequel.</div> <bR> <div> Crossing Paths:  Momiji Hime seems to be the only one interested in this story . . . probably cuz Marmalade Boy has not been licensed in the states yet ;-;  Still, FOR YOU MH I SHALL WRITE MORE SUZU/KEI MUSH!!!!</div> <bR> <div> The Merriam Legacy:  I will start writing this one again soon ^_^  You guys should see my to do list ;-;</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <U> <A NAME="story_ideas"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A></U><U>Story Ideas</U></div> <bR> <div> I have several ideas runnin' round in my head at any given time, however, I would like YOUR input on which I should work on first.  This does not mean I will ever write them but your opinions will give me incentive to at least give it a shot.</div> <bR> <div> 1.  (Tentative Title) Love is Blind - A Ranma 1/2 fiction, Akane and Ranma decide they aren't compatible just as Mousse gets thrown out on his bumpkin by Shampoo and Cologne.  Out of the kindness of her heart, Akane invites him to stay at the Tendo dojo (there's an extra room now that Ranma has moved out with his father) and romance blossoms ^_^  (Yes I do love Ranma/Akane but I also like the idea of Mousse/Akane ^_^).</div> <bR> <div> 2.  (Tentative Title)  For Want of a Nail - An Esca/MB crossover, Meiko is walking home from school one day, right before graduation and a visit from Na-chan (her fiance) when a strange light whisks her away to Gaia where she is taken captive by none other than that (TRUE) transexual, Dilandau!!  Of course, in this alternate universe Dilandau is REALLY a guy ^_^  I was totally mortified when I found out my gorgeous Dil-chan was really a girl  *sobs*</div> <bR> <div> 3.  Candied Memories - The sequel to False Engagements, on a stormy night, a mother relates to her young daughter how she and her husband met when they were only children (I'll give ya three guesses as to who the mother and father is ^_^)</div> <bR> <div> 4.  Requiem - The sequel to Made of You, ten years after the events of Made of You occur, a new threat lurks within friendly ranks and this time its after Relena and Heero's child!</div> <bR> <div> 5.  Knowing One's Place - Yes another GW epic ;_;  This one is a sort of 'what if' where instead of the Darlians taking her in, Relena grew up as a normal middle-class teenager who knows absolutely nothing of her true heritage (her 'foster' parents don't either), but Oz and Romefeller finds out through research and sends *gasp* Zechs off to kill her . . . subsequent events lead her to a rather strained position.  The idea for this one came about when I was reading some debate or another on Relena's inner strength.  Would she be just as strong under totally different circumstances?</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <U> <A NAME="credits"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A></U><U>Credits</U></div> <bR> <div> 1.  My family who has forever supported me even though my parents are always saying I should write for money and my younger bro thinks I'm a ninny for writing at all ggggrrrrr . . . Oh yeah, thanks  :-P</div> <bR> <div> 2.  To my cousin Michelle who was the inspiration for Mai being the comic relief, you're so annoying I had to get you to shut up about being in my stories somehow WAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!  </div> <bR> <div> 3.  Momiji Hime, YOU'RE DA BEST!!!!  All the times you've sat through my insane ventings and ramblings, waited patiently for me to finish chapters I'd promised months ago, and sent me more anime than I could have hoped to have afforded over the course of 5 years!  You deserve a medal of honor and has Kenshin ever stopped chasing you?  Damn Battousai hehehe ^_^  Less make a deal, I write half the bish list, you write half *giggles*</div> <bR> <div> 4.  Thank you Kryillion!  For being so great about being my prereader, for trusting me with reading your stuff, and just emailing me back!!!  I know I can get a tad strange -_-;;  Thank you vera much!! Merci beaucoup!!  Laissez bon temp roullette!!!</div> <bR> <div> 5.  To Victoria my other prereader!  Thank you for being an inspiraton for Ria who shall make an appearance poste haste!  For listening to my ravings and giving me something to do when I feel the wierdness claiming my brain (i.e. our little anime soap opera emails *cackles*)!  </div> <bR> <div> 6.  To all my readers, thank you for reading, for writing to me, for signing the guestbook, for everything!  I wouldn't be writing if it weren't for you guys!  You're what inspires me to keep going!  Thank you so much for your continued patience and support ^_^</div> <bR> <div> 7.  To my pet bunny rabbit Chewi (short for Chewbacca, yes I am a Star Wars fan), thank you for listening to me debate with myself over stories and such (not that you have much of a choice but to listen ^_^).</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div>  <IMG SRC="112e4980.jpg" border=0 width="228" height="152" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> Chewi eating his alfalfa ^_^  Ain't he just precious???</div> <bR> <div> 8.  Thank you God for giving me this cur . . . ah gift hehe ^_^  I hope I'm doing as you wished me to do with it.  You are my muse, and even though You drive me nuts sometimes, I'd probably be driven nuts even faster if I didn't get ideas as much as I do ^_^  Thanks!</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
