Author has written 4 stories for Final Fantasy VIII.

Heya, it's been a while. A long, long, long while, in fact. So long that I had to set up a new account because I no longer had access to my old one. My have things changed since 2003.

I never thought I'd see the day I started writing fanfiction again but I guess I am in a place where old joys are resurfacing. Maybe LiveJournal will be next. I have no idea if any of my old friends are still around or if anyone is still reading FFVIII pieces anymore. Truthfully, it just doesn't matter. I feel like writing so I am going to write, audience or no audience. If you are reading this, thanks a million for stopping by.

You can find most of my previously published stuff on my old profile here: http://www.fanfiction.net/u/53896/Ripley

It never sat well with me that I didn't finish my would-be epic and I'd love to try a major re-write. I have several ideas I'd love to play with. We'll see what happens.
