Name: Sandrilenefatoren2

Gender: Female

Age: 20s

Relationship Status: Not interested, thankyouverymuch

Fandoms: Many, many diverse types, though I usually focus on character-driven shounen manga.

Strengths: Consistent characterization, consistent spelling, grammar, and flow quality to stories, consistent in-universe rules.

Weaknesses: A tendency to be a bit too wordy or text-heavy, a habit of going off on tangents every now and then, and an absolutely, utterly ABYSMAL update schedule (which, by the time I start posting my next fic, will hopefully be fixed).

Beta abilities/availabilities: I'm a pretty reliable beta, but I'm not currently looking for any more stories to help with, since the few that I've worked on for other people haven't been posted or they haven't sent me any more stuff to work on and I get tired of that kind of thing (hypocrisy, thy name is sandry-chan).

Current Team-ups: Waterdog, a very imaginative (if relatively novice) fanfic author who is very good at motivating me to actually get shit done, meaning our one collaborative effort is actually GOING somewhere for once.

News: Okay, sorry to my few fans who actually care about me updating anymore (because seriously, I am a sad, sad woman who has been putting off updating my profile for waaaaay too long). I am on authorial hiatus until I finish my project with Waterdog. Once we finish it, we will begin posting chapters at the rate of one per week until it's all up, though we don't know whether it will be on her page or mine. There are twenty-nine chapters finished so far... but the story will probably be over a hundred chapters long before we finish it, so don't expect anything for a bit. I won't try to excuse myself by saying I have a life and two jobs, since they're frankly small-time jobs and I have no life, making it a terrible excuse. Again, a thousand apologies to my few remaining fans.

Status of my Fics...

Gypsy Romance: Done! Wait, you mean I actually HAVE a completed fic? Holy shit.

I know Gaga has more social aptitude than I'm giving him, and I know he's not so diffident around women normally, but I do have some reasons for his behavior. Firstly, he's in a human body now, so every thing feels just a little bit off to him. He's subconsciously nervous. Plus, being the fusser that he is, he's most likely worried about messing things up. As to his diffidence... well, I'll chalk that one up to a combination of hormones and the fact that he's besotted. And confusion, since I doubt he's ever received that much female attention all at once in his (excessively long) life.

UPDATE: While I'm proud to have actually finished this story, it was my first attempt at seriously writing and, looking back, it wasn't very good at all. It was, in fact, extremely amateurish and obviously written by a sixteen-year-old with no romantic experience. I'm leaving it up because... well, it IS complete, and my first work, but I can't bear to actually read it anymore.

Crossovers Galore: HIATUS. 25 chapters are completed. I lost my inspiration for it, and though I still love it, I'm stuck as to where things will go from here. I am sorry for the terrible stopping-point, but I was stupid enough to start two arcs without a serious plot even sketched out for either. I'll come back to CG later, when I'm inspired again.

UPDATE: Still on hiatus, but if I do start working on CG again, it will involve a major overhaul and rewrite, as I'm unsatisfied with the quality of the writing in this story. Good idea, mediocre execution.

Shell: Complete. I abandoned the idea of this series after realizing it was going in a weird direction, and that I couldn't bear to mess with the One Piece canon in any significant way (I love it too much), such as by introducing a new crew member.

Smile: Complete. See above.

Next fic coming up: A collaborative effort with Waterdog and, if all goes smoothly with that, possibly a few sequels or spinoffs or related projects.

Things you should know about me...

I LOVE REVIEWS! I don't care if you're criticizing my work, complimenting it, commenting on it, making suggestions, or even bashing it, I just like reviews, because they mean that my readers are actually thinking about my stories.

I write odd romance stories. The 'odd' part about the romances I write is not any freaky stuff, but the fact that I write about someone who most people wouldn't think of. Usually a supporting character, or one who's there for comic relief. Someone who's absence would affect the story, but who most people consider to be a minor, unimportant character. Why do I write these? I don't really know. I think that I just have a soft spot for the people like them, who are under-appreciated by most of the 'audience'.

Who are these characters?

Naruto: Kiba. Shino. Kankuro. I found a pic of Shino without his shades, and he's actually kinda hot! Weird, huh?

FMA: Lt. Jean Havoc. He NEVER gets the girl. I want Havoc to get the girl.

Prince of Tennis: Kaidou Kaoru. He's so gruff and standoffish on the outside, but surprisingly innocent internally (Type A male Tsundere). And he's got a damn sexy voice. (ahem)

One more thing about the romances I write. You'll notice that they're all for guys. I don't feel very confident about writing for girls, because I don't really know how to design a guy.

Romances I hate: Anything gay/ lesbian. (I've got nothing against homosexuals or bisexuals, I just don't like reading about it.) Anything with someone whose romance is already in the series (I hate having them tampered with). Anything freaky-perverted or uber-kinky.

Favorite type of Fic: Crossovers! Especially long-term crossovers or character-interest crossovers. Also, occasionally I will enjoy fics like "Randomness" that make almost no sense but are freaking hilarious. I also enjoy fanfictions that go into interesting ideas or show things from a different viewpoint. Another example of the type of thinking I enjoy can be found at narutofever.com. Read "Byakugan Theory" or "Sharingan Theory."

Least favorite type of Fic: anything with romances like above. Anything with terrible grammar or spelling (about 3/4 of the fics out there, sadly).

I got this list from Creedkeeper. It is awesome.

I PROPOSE A CRAZY CROSSOVER!!

This is an idea I came up with recently, but since I only know ONE of the series, I don't believe I'm capable of doing it justice, so I'm offering it up to anybody willing to try.

APH: Axis Pirates Hetalia. A crossover/elsewhere fic/crack fic, with the main cast of Axis Power Hetalia is in the One Piece world, and are a crew of pirates known as the Axis Pirates.
