I am very soon to return from my extended hiatus.

Hello, Fanfiction.net! It has been very long since I have seen you last. I have great news (in reference to myself, unless you are pining after my gorgeous looks--in which case, great news for you too!) I have finished two books and started a third one in the time that you have last seen me.

I have improved greatly as a writer, and am prepared to carry the weight of the FF world on my shoulders! :D

I have written a book! It's a brand new page, but please show your support on Facebook!

Personal FAQ:

Q: Why did you decide to return to writing fan fiction after such a long hiatus?

A: I've written 2 books. Although the stories have very little to do with fan fiction and Invader Zim, I first outlined and developed the character's personalities through mediums involving the two. I owe a lot of my confidence in my abilities to fan fiction, and seeing that my stories needed SERIOUS editing, I chose to revise all of them. It is very important to me that I have stories that reflect the best quality that I can churn out as a writer.

Q: Why do you support ZATR? _ is obviously better/ none of the relationships make sense!

A: A long time ago, when I didn't believe in basic punctuation or capitalization, I thought ZATR was the best pairing because two Irkens HAVE to love each other because that's how love works. Now that I am older and looking back, I've come to realize one and only reason why ZATR is the most plausible pairing (and why most people's concept of it is inaccurate.)

As you'll see in my edited version of "Daughter of the Summer" (easily my most popular story, despite I Dream of Freedom being my personal favorite), Zim and Tak are two defectives that have been unwittingly tossed away by their Tallests. At this point in the timeline, Zim has realized that the Tallests were trying to be rid of them and quickly found a way to justify it in a way that Zim inevitably would. Tak is stuck in where Zim was in the show, where she believed that the Armada would come for Earth when she captured it. Like it or not, that will never happen and if she had succeeded in the show, I am positive she'd be the same as Zim.

I don't know if Irkens can show love. It is never hinted at in the show--other than Zim missing his unfeeling robot arm mother, which is much stronger proof than everyone makes it out to be. However, I do believe that they can use each other for mutual gain and feel attachment to another person. Whether this is what love is, is anyone's guess but that's just my stance on it. I don't know if Tak would ever realistically overcome her total hatred for Zim, but I do believe that it is possible that she could come to a sort of agreement/partnership with him if it were necessary for survival or companionship.

Also, Zim's like 159 and everyone else is too young to properly grasp sex. Even if I make them all older, it's still squicky to me.

Q: Why do all your stories involve pregnancies? Irkens have no sex organs!

A: Although that may have been Jhonen's intentions (his opinion on the matter is foggy to me), I chalk that up to Nickelodeon not wanting someone to draw genitalia in a kid's show. Do I believe their pregnancies work like ours? I believe the pregnancy is similar, but the intercourse is different. We've never seen a female smeet, so I can draw a conclusion that they use antennae reproductively and females can be pregnant normally. This is speculative though; I just tend to overthink things and create a whole new dimension to it.

Also, you are wrong. IZ Emmy's, Invader Idol, and A War to Remember have no pregnancy.

Q: Why do you stick to Invader Zim Fan Fiction? What happened to SpongeBob and the Fairly Odd Parents that you used to write?

A: No one can prove those were me! I took those down a long time ago!

I'm not sure why I like Invader Zim so much. Maybe its because I tend to write darker subject material that is more plausible in the Crapsack World of invader Zim. Although I have been criticized by many for writing "Alternate Universe" stories in Invader Zim, none of it is really implausible. Is it more serious than the show is? Yes, but even if you decipher the old "Daughter of the Summer" that was so popular despite being unintelligible, you will find that the bare story is more than possible. Zim and Tak fall in love? It IS possible, but only because two people with a lot of things in common and trapped together for long periods of time will find love with each other in some way. Even in that story I don't believe that it was love. Crazy necklace that makes the wearer crazy when separated from it? In the universe, it is COMPLETELY possible when the other episodes were taken into consideration.

Q: Will you be changing a lot of details in your revised stories?

A: Yes and no. "Daughter of the Summer" and the rest of the DotS series are wholly flawed in almost every aspect. I will be clarifying and making any adjustment that I see fit to make the story more coherent and plausible. "I Dream of Freedom" and the rest of the IDOF series is much less flawed, most of that will be clarifying.

In Example: In the original DotS, Tak and Purple have a close father-daughter relation out of the blue despite hardly actually interacting with each other. In the revised one, it is simply a side note that becomes more important in the upcoming chapters as Tak struggles to deal with her condition--and not the pregnant one. Also, the OC's will no longer completely run the show as it IS an Invader Zim story.

In the original IDOF, Helena is happy go lucky girl until SHOCK she's someone's kid that was supposed to be surprising. In the revised version, I will put more effort into illustrating how this has affected her personality.

Q: All the characters in your book are in A War to Remember. Are they the same? Will you make X into a book?

A: This isn't a "Masters of the Universe" thing over here. Lea, Ron, Sheret, Erica, and Zanna are the main characters of my books. Ron and Zanna dated for a while. Erica is Ron's sister. That's the only thing that stayed the same. Everything else happened when I decided to flesh out their universe and realized that it had about as much in common with its source material as any music I may have listened to while writing it. Their universe is entirely unique and different from that of Invader Zim, and their species is nothing like the Irkens.

If I were to make DotS a book, it would be impossible to tear it away from Invader Zim. It is very dependent on the personalities of the Irken Empire's characters, and it's very dependent on each character being who they are. This doesn't mean I won't attempt it at some point, but right now it is highly unlikely that I will develop a whole new universe and cast to drop into the scenario.

As far as IDOF, I have tried several times to start writing a novel based around Quinn and Tisvana to no avail. The farthest I have gotten was about 20.000 words before being displeased with my work and throwing it out.
