I hate biographies. I always am at a lose at what to say, an usually I find them boring to read. I only have only own one biography on the Dalli Lama which I got for a paper I was writing in college.

With that being said don't expect anything mind blowing in this little excerpt. I work third shift and have for almost 8 years. I started working when I was 15 at a small restraunt called the Coach House where my mother was a manager, bookkeeper, waitress, and eventually part owner, so I was always there when I was younger. They put me to work as a dishwasher and eventually cook. When I was eighteen my mother quit and sold her part in the business. I stayed for another two years but only under the condition I work midnights and get a raise. I quit when my payroll checks bounced for a month and went to work at Walmart as floor maintenance.

The only reason I applied there was it was one of the few places that was open on midnights and unfortunately floor crew was the only thing they were hiring for at the time. I hated it at first, I spent eight hours a night vacuuming carpets. All night every night. Eventually there were changes and I began doing other stuff and adjusted to the very different work environment. It was a big change going from working with old women and gay guys at the restraunt to a team of middle to young men that made up the floor crew.

Most people hate working thirds and over the years I have seen a lot of people come and go unable to adjust. For me it is really natural and I love it. I use to hate working mornings and although evenings were ok I really prefer midnights. I would quit walmart before moving to a different shift. I like the quiet and lack of people I think the most.

As for my hobbies I guess right now the biggest one would be my writing. Undoubtably most people who decide to read this will be people who have read some of my stories and want to learn more about me. I never thought of myself as a writer. I did work on some short stories in highschool, and my writing skills are the only thing that saved me through highschool and college English. I suck at grammar, punctuation, and spelling. It is horrible, terrible, and I know freighting how bad I am at these things. Even though I failed miserably at these things I made up for enough in content to squeak by with and C in most of my English classes.

Back in a highschool I wrote mainly fantasy and science fiction. It is natural since that was what I read all the time. Back then and even now you can always find me with book. I carry at least twenty in my car and always carry around a backpack instead of a purse so I can carry even more books with me. Now I read more manga lately than regular books and I read a lot of yaoi.

Now I write yaoi in fact I am trying to convert one of my old highschool stories into a yaoi romance. I have been working on it off and on but I am still having problems with it. I started reading yaoi only about a year and half ago. So it was only about six months after I really started getting into it that I decided to start writing it as well.

All of the credit for it really goes to Kira Takenouchi. I ran across her site when I was looking for more fanfics on Ai no Kusabi. I had watched the ova and was disappointed in it somewhat, but a part translation of the book and some fanfics got me intrigued by the story. I believe it was a link on the site were I found a part translation of the story that lead me to Kira’s site. I was blown away by her story Taming of Riki. It was the first time I had really encountered bonadage and hardcore sex and I was intrigued. More exploration of her site lead me to her slash archives where writers could post their own fanfics and yaoi stories. It started me thinking about writing something. It wasn’t long before Forbidden Desires was born.

I am very uncomfortable with writing fanfics. I just can’t get a feel for other peoples character’s so at first I had trouble coming up with a story. I solved the problem by creating original characters and having the  characters from Taming of Riki only make an appearance. In the beginning the only idea I had was  of a blondie who was slightly different and uncomfortable with his role as a elite and a pet somewhat like Riki in Kira’s story who was not interested in being an obedient pet. I had no real set ideas for the story and it evolved as I was writing.

The Hawks was the second story I started on and it is my baby. It was my first original fiction.  It started much like Forbidden Desires with a simple idea of a mercenary captain who finds a mute boy after conquering a city. I knew from the very beginning that I didn’t want a bondage story for this one simply because I didn’t want to mirror Collateral Damage a story I had read on Kira’s restricted site and I wanted a very different dynamic between the two characters. Unlike Forbidden Desires by the time I wrote the third chapter I knew what was to happen in the story. Specific scene were already in my mind and I knew how this story was to end. I am really excited about it now that I have reached the halfway point and sometime have to remind myself to work on my other works especially since Dragon Boy seems to be more favored by the readers.

Dragon Boy came next I wanted to get more into my fantasy root but I also wanted to add some bondage elements that were absent in The Hawks. When I wrote the first chapter I had some shaky ideas about where I would go with the story but they had not sorted themselves out yet, and I would soon be interrupted by an old lover.

For about six months I stopped writing while I pursued a relationship with a man who had left me over two years ago. He just appeared one night at my work telling me he was divorced and wanted us to get back together. I agreed rather foolishly. He didn’t forbid me to write but he did have three young children. Between the children, work, and trying to make him happy left me little time to pursue any of my hobbies. In the end he drove me home after spending my two days off with him he called me two hours later and said he didn’t want to be with me or see me again. I didn’t talk enough to his children, wouldn’t let his five year old daughter sleep with us, was still 150 pounds and hadn’t lost any weight, and was crazy that being unhappy caused back problems with me. I was rather relived in the end but rather mad and sad as well.

I didn’t take up writing right away but soon The Hawk drew me back. I had to finish the story, I felt I had a lot of great ideas left to write. Forbidden Desires had been completed by then but I had started on a squeal to the story mainly because I selfishly wanted to keep writing about Toya and Riva. Both characters had become dear to me and I felt there was still more to be done with them. Dragon Boy's plot shift some in my mind and some different plot element were created which I think in the end will bring out a better story.

I have always had a lot of ideas flowing around in my head for stories but The Escort was created when I was watching Ghost in the Shell 2nd Gig. I decided I want to write about a futuristic with robots. Originally I had only meant it to be a stand alone story but I realized that first I think people like to read smaller chapters then a really long story all at once and two the Escort was going to be longer than I had originally intended, so I began to release it in chapter form.

There are still a lot of story ideas unwritten, but I have restrained myself from creating anymore right at the moment. I usually have enough time to release one chapter a week. So if I start even more stories then people could really be waiting a long time to see an update on the story that they really like. Already they have to wait a month unless I manage to update two chapters a week. Once I finish one of my stories I will create another to replace it but I don’t want people to have to wait months to find out what happens to their characters.

I love writing but I know I am only a average writer. For me that really doesn’t matter a whole lot. I will admit I wish that I was better at it but in the end I truly have fun doing it and that is what matters the most. Even if there is only one person that wants to read my stories then I feel like I should continue not just for them but for me so I can enjoy the story as well. I often reread my own stories for entertainment so for me it isn’t a waste of time.

Beyond writing my other two passions or anime and Star Trek. Star Trek has been a love for me since I was thirteen when my mother bought me all five star trek movies. Back then there were only five, and I watched them over and over again. Later I would join Columbia House to get the original series, Next Gen, DS9, and Voyager. It is hard for me to chose between them and I like each series for different reasons.

Anime is my other hobby that takes up most of my free money. My collection is over 800 disc and growing. I got into anime in 2002 when I picked up Oh My Goddess the Movie and Bubblegum Crisis 2024 vol 4 at Walmart. I fell in love and by the next day was online trying to find the other volumes of BC2040 and more Oh My Goddess. My top ten changes from time to time but some have remained on the list since I first started.
