I've switched the review system over to e-mail as I'm probably going to stop updating my FF.net account with new chapters due to their content stripping.

As for actual progress on my fics, I've made a descent amount of progress on the next chapter of WCB and gotten a fair amount of SoDW? 2 finished. I've also figured out most of the overall outline and plot for both fics. NK, sadly, is currently blocking me. I've outlined a large portion of it but I can't get the next chapter out of my head and into the computer. As a result I'm working on my first two fics more heavily.

Also, I've made some minor corrections and changes to SoDW? 1. Mostly just expanding paragraphs about dialog into actual dialog. ^_~ There isn't really any new content but it reads a bit better now.

Hopefully I'll have the next chapter of both fics finished and ready for my pre-readers before too much longer.

Ja ne.

Made some small changes to the site. I combined the light and dark theme buttons into a single button that will toggle the theme. I've also removed the contact page and made the button in the navbar into a direct e-mail link.

Well, back to my fanfiction. ^^

Okay, I've messed with the html and javascript some more. The page validates again and the theme no longer jumps back and forth on page loads.

Well, back to working on my fanfiction. Ja ne ^_~

Just a quick note that I've updated the outdated links.

Ja ne ^_~

A quick note on my fanfiction. No, I'm not going to stop writing, and no, I don't have anything new to post. I've been busy lately and inspite of dozens of ideas I simply haven't had time to put anything on the computer. Now that the summer semester is over at college I'm going to spend a few days getting as much written on my fanfiction as possible.

Just to let you know the status of my current fics:

• Neo Kousei:

  Haven't actually started on the next chapter but I have several ideas and have almost an entire scene planned out in my mind.

• Spring of Drowned What?:

  Chapter 2 is over 1500 words and has been for awhile. I just haven't been able to get the focus to continue it because of ideas for other fics. I'll try and get it finished quickly, though it's going to be awhile. I have a lot to cover in this chapter.

• Wild Cherry Blossoms:

  I have the basics for the next seven or so chapters outlined. I'm going to spend some time filling in some detail on the outline and start working on chapter 3.

I also have several other fics in idea/outline form and keep getting ideas for Naruto fics. I may or may not start working on one of those as well. I do, however, want to get more work finished on my existing fics first.

Ja ne ^_~

Well, it's been awhile. Sorry for the massive delay in updating. I've been busy. You may notice that the site design is slightly different. I've redone some of the code and shrunk a few images to improve load times. I've also set up a mechanism so that the nav bar will resize based on the window size. This way people with smaller resolutions don't lose some of the buttons.

The resizing brings up an annoyance though. I had to use onResize in the body tag to get the dynamic sizing to work. Unfourtunately this breaks the w3c validation on all of my pages. However, I'm going to leave the validation up since that is the only thing that doesn't validate. Why? Because the accepted method for responding to window resizing prevents my site from even loading in Mozilla and its variants. It also causes Safari to reload the page a few dozen times. OnResize in the body tag works properly therefore I'm using it. If anyone knows of a means of getting this to work so it will validate I'm open to suggestions.

Anyway... I've also reorganized the fanfiction page. The fics are now in alphabetical order and I've removed the menus for reviewing the chapters. Instead there is a button to read the reviews for the fic on the main page and a button at the bottom of every chapter for posting a review of that chapter. I thought it would make more sense that way.

Finally, I think I've resolved all of the rendering issues in Mozilla based browsers.

Ja ne ^_~

Finally, after much too long a wait I have finished and posted chapter 2 of Wild Cherry Blossoms. I hope you all enjoy reading it. While working on chapter 2, I looked back over the prologue and first chapter and I feel that they don't measure up to the quality level of my more resent work. Therefore, I've decided to rewrite them. Don't worry though. I won't begin the rewrite until I've finished through at least chapter 4 and have half of chapter 5 completed.

Anyway, enjoy chapter 2 and let me know what you think of it.

Also, as a side note, I'm going to be out of town for the next week. I may or may not have access during that time, so if I don't respond to e-mails during the week I'm gone you'll understand why.

I'm going to work on my fics while I'm gone, but I probably won't have another chapter to post - even if I finish something. If I finish anything I'll send it to my pre-reader when I get back.

Ja ne. ^_~

Well, I've finished chapter two of Wild Cherry Blossoms. It's been sent to my pre-readers but it may be a while before I post the finished product. Finals are coming up at college, not only for me but my pre-readers as well. In other words, real life takes precedence for the moment. I'll post it as soon as I can. In the mean time (when I'm not studying or watching anime ^_~) I'll be working on the third and fourth chapters.

Ja ne.

Okay everyone, I've been working on the CSS and HTML code for my site to get it to look better on Windows. Mac OS X of course has no problem and, in fact, does the best job displaying my site since Safari seems to be the only browser that supports the CSS text-shadow element. If the emoticon in the title doesn't clue you in making Windows browsers cooperate has been annoying.

I've basically given up on getting IE to display properly since it is so standards non-compliant. I have, however, gotten Mozilla (I used Firefox on my Mac since it displays the same on all platforms) to do a much better job than it did. If you are having any problems go to mozilla.org and try one of their browsers (I reccomend Firefox). If you still have problems feel free send me an e-mail and I'll see what I can do.

btw, if anyone knows why Mozilla/Firefox refuses to display the date on the same line as the news blurb's title, please let me know. It's driving me nuts. ^_~

I'm currently working on Wild Cherry Blossoms.

I've revised what I had written of WCB 2 and I'm slowly finishing it up. I'm also outlining the overall story and the individual chapters. Once I finish I should be able to get future chapters out faster with more plot coherence.

I'm also planning on doing the same with my other fics before putting anymore work into them. It may be a while before the next chapter comes out but I am working on it.

Ja ne.

Okay, Neo Kousei Chapter One is up along with yet another revision to the prologue. While going over chapter one my pre-reader and I realized that I had messed up Akane's character. (It has been forever since I read the Ranma manga.) Revised the prologue to correct that mistake. Hope you enjoy them.

Ja ne ^_~

I finished the first draft of Neo Kousei chapter 1 and sent it out to be pre-read. It shouldn't take to long since my primary pre-reader has read over everything but the last scene. Hopefully I will get posted by the end of the week.

I'm going to work on outlining the entire story for Wild Cherry Blossoms and try and get some work done on chapter 2 of that story next. Same goes for Spring of Drowned What?

Ja ne

Welcome to version 2 of my site. I've completely rewritten it to use css and added a dark theme for those who prefer it. I'm going to start posting updates according to category so there might be multiple updates on a given day.

I've also decided to post progress on my fics here instead of the fanfiction page. As of now the only thing on the fanfiction page is the fics. ^_~

A Sailor Saturn desktop I made while making the background for the dark theme is in the Desktops section of the Downloads page.

Enjoy.

I've added a new desktop to my downloads page along with a new icon set. I've also redone both of my other desktops for wide format displays. Enjoy.

Well, I better get back to work on Neo Kousei 1, WCB 2, and SoDW? 2. Ja ne.

Update: 10,000 hits!

Really sorry about the lack of updates. Lately I just haven't been able to get into the creative mind set but I have started writing a bit more the last few days. I'm thinking about removing the status bars since they aren't really too accurate due to the nature of writing. I'll still post dates to indicate the last time I worked on a fic and notes on its status though.

Also I finally finished the prologue of Neo Kousei and you can find it on my fanfiction page.

Updated the Fanfiction page adding the Prologue to Spring of Drowned What? and updating the status to reflect chapter one of that fic. I'm going to try and finish the first draft of WCB Chapter Two in the next couple of days and get it out to the pre-readers, but we'll have to wait and see how things work out.^_^

I'll try and get SoDW on Fanfiction.net sometime this weekend after which I'll add the review link for it on the Fanfiction page here.

I've updated the the Fanfiction page with current status and added a menu for submitting reviews through Fanfiction.net. I've also made the banners for the different sections as you can see above. Finally the Downloads page has some content on it now. The two eBooks from PsyckoSama are current to the latest non-draft chapter. Check out his site PsyckoSama's Madhouse: Fanfiction and Tea (It's on the Links page) for some good fics.

Note: The icon set is Mac OS X only at the moment. I'll try and get a version of it up that will work with other systems soon.

This is the first version of my website. It's still under construction and some sections aren't up yet but the fanfics are online. I've uploaded a revised copy of WCB Chapter One and will have the Prologue of my new fic online as soon as I make any corrections or revisions that the pre-readers suggest.

I will try and update the site once a week or so over the weekends just to let you know what I'm doing.
