About Meself...

Somewhere between an otaku, a geek and a slacker. If I'm not doing anything (gaming, reading or whatever) I usually daydream and think of what I'll probably be like in my own fantasy world. A mighty wizard, burning the crap out of evil monsters? A computer hacker, writing viruses and bringing down the global network? Or a daydreamer, thinking of what he'll be doing in another fantasy world...

The avator I'm using is some picture I found online. Don't know who he is, don't know what's his correct hair and eye colour. There's actually another picture that's identical to this one, just that the hair and eye colour is different (red hair, green eyes). If you do know who that person is please tell me, okay? :D


My Writing Style...

I'm experimenting with different styles lately, such as multiple narrators, flashbacks and stuff like that. I'm particularly interested in Nick Sagan's use of the second-person point of view in Edenborn. Really makes the chatacter Deuce stand out from the rest.

I usually write fantasy or sci-fi stories, and lately I'm more into the cyberpunk and steampunk styles. Which is why I'm pretty hooked on D-Gray.man.


Current Projects...

Inquisitor
A steampunk novel about a warship captain and his encounters with a childhood friend, now a pirate lord and an enemy. I intend to use chess terms to name the chapters. For example, Chapter 3 is entitled 'The Queen's Gambit'.

In addition to the novel, I'm writing a few short stories with whatever little inspirations I have but can't fit into my novel. Most of them should end up as fanfictions.
