![]() Author has written 1 story for Rise of the Guardians. Hello, everyone! My name is NarnianOpal, and I live in the Pacific Northwest. I am half alien (on my dad's side), and British humor runs in my veins... along with moderate eccentricity, a knack for storytelling, and blood. I love to read, write, and draw, and I someday hope to be an illustration/concept artist for animation... or possibly a writer of children's books. I have an odd range of interests, and a lot of them eventually tie into story ideas (that I scribble plot-lines and character sketches for, then hide in my notebooks to jealously guard like an illicit dragon's hoard). I tend to haunt the folklore and obscure "science" sections of the library and used book stores, and I occasionally read the encyclopedia for fun. I am painfully shy, and a fairly quiet person, though what actually goes on in my head says something very different. I tend to argue with (and apologize to) inanimate objects, and choose between identical items at the store by discerning which “personality” I like best. I remember things by what color my mind links them to, and I tend to confuse “A” names with “M” names because the letters are both shades of yellow. I have yet to find the borders of my mental landscape, as it has the irritating habit of shifting around whenever I try to explore it. Perhaps this is why I so often find myself lost in the land of thoughts... Fanfiction Disclaimer - by Anonymous Sing, O Muse, or speak, or dance, and so your audience entrance: For voice, or step, or gilded phrase - each art shall mortal minds amaze. But Muse, ensure whatever work is safe from harmful law and clerk, the legal hounds who howl at we who honor creativity. -oOo- Who honors more an artist's skill? The fan who will the soul distill from artistry, and so conceive new tales from what that art achieved? Or one who simply reads a book and even if their heart is hooked, tells none, nor lets their minds be swept to lands where untouched tales are kept? -oOo- But yet let needful words be said, which still I treat with grief and dread: I own the narration within, but not the world it happens in. It isn't hard to separate my words from those I emulate. What's mine is mine, what's not is not, I lay no claim to other plots. -oOo- So guard, Calliope, and Sing! The humble words which I might bring would in your speech flourish and thrive, in ways I could scarcely contrive. And reader, if you would allow just one more moment, here and now to introduce my nascent glory — Sit back, relax, enjoy the story! Fanfiction is what literature might look like if it were reinvented from scratch after a nuclear apocalypse by a band of brilliant pop-culture junkies trapped in a sealed bunker. They don't do it for money. That's not what it's about. The writers write it and put it up online just for the satisfaction. They're fans, but they're not silent, couchbound consumers of media. The culture talks to them, and they talk back to the culture in its own language. —Lev Grossman, TIME, July 18, 2011 Favorite Quotes: “There was a boy called Eustace Clarence Scrubb, and he almost deserved it.” ― C.S. Lewis, The Voyage of the "Dawn Treader" })i({ When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.” ― C.S. Lewis })i({ “Don't say it was delightful; make us say delightful when we've read the description. You see, all those words (horrifying, wonderful, hideous, exquisite) are only like saying to your readers 'Please will you do the job for me'.” ― C.S. Lewis })i({ “Fairy tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ― G.K. Chesterton })i({ "In the beginning, the Universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move." - Douglas Adams |
