+ Basic Info +

Name: Keruri, Koneko, (Kitten), Kurisu, Rina, and any variation of the aforementioned.
Age: 15
Date of Birth:12/22/89
Blood Type: O
Astrological Sign: Capricorn
Lifelong Dream: To become a better writer and one day write a novel that people can enjoy.
Likes: Anime, manga, fantasy/supernatural themes in stories, fanfiction, (obviously, or I wouldn't be here right now), kittens, cute and simplistic things, (I have a terrible penchant for them), rainy days.
Dislikes: Not too many, but one of my few pet peeves are: close-minded people, little dogs, (had a bad experience with one and they all scare me now; they're so unpredictable and, most of the time, untrained), and busy-bodies who can't stop bothering people about their personal affairs.

I'm going to assume that the above quick facts weren't enough to fully explain who I am...and so, I suppose this would be considered my, 'In-Depth,' section. Well, to begin with, hello to every person out there reading this right now! My name is Keruri; or, so I'd like to say, because I'm certainly not going to expose my REAL name over the Internet. If it interests you any, (though I'm fairly sure it doesn't), Keruri is quite close to my real name. My friends who might be reading this are now probably shaking their heads, thinking I'm crazy for giving such a hint...but I think it's more fun this way, don't you? n_n

My fanfiction usually only is based off of anime and manga, and my epics are almost exclusively AUs, (Alternate Universe ficcies). Why, you ask? Well, I could ramble on a long-winded explanation on how fun I think it is to eschew the main plotline of a series and make it into something really original; but I'll spare you all the details for now and simply answer, "because I want to." Hopefully, I haven't sounded terribly rude by responding in that manner. If anyone thinks so, please let it be heard that I DO apologize sincerely. -Bows and nearly falls over in the process-

Ee-to...let's see...I guess the most important thing to know about me is that I'm a bit clumsy, I'm a bit hyper, and I really, REALLY aspire to be an author one day,writing my own original stories. I actually have a few ideas written out and typed up right now, but I don't feel comfortable sharing them yet. You'll all just have to make do with my fanfiction, I'm afraid...

And speaking of fanfiction, what am I holding you all up here for with my blathering-Squeaks in realization- I should be letting you all go, whether it's to go read another person's works or mine, (if you feel so inclined to...). Please don't forget to leave a review to my stories! The feedback, criticism, and comments are all greatly appreciated, always! Knowing what my readers think keeps my inspiration and heart into writing...although I really couldn't stay away from writing for ANYTHING. No, really, I tried. From experience, I know that much to be true.

NOTE TO MY KIND READERS AS OF 2/15/05:

Even if I take an extended absence or something of the like, you all should know that I'm never going to actaully be gone forever! Good readers, a big thanks for the support so far-and know that all of my stories will get updated. Personal life and everything has prevented me from getting back on-task, but that should pass within the next month. If I can't get done everything I wanted to by March...well, then you can all go ahead and smack me one. I would then SERIOUSLY deserve the treatment, neglecting you guys like this. Sorry, everyone; Karu-san; Jakukie-san; Nekozuki-san; Pai-san; the readers of Paradise! I'll come back soon and review all your WONDERFUL stories, (which probably don't deserve my humble praise), and post up chapters to all my fics, I promise...!

+ On-Going Stories +

Jouryoku Kafe: Is REVAMPED and the original story will eventuallybe DELETED. I found that I didn't like how the story was progressing. It is now posted as,"When Reason Fails," with a similar timeline but, most assuredly, a better-executed plotline. Still supernatural and fantasy elements, because I enjoyed those things very much. And no more silly cross-overs this time around, I promise.

Paradise: Epilouge is in the works, and while I'd like to continue the story one day...I might have to redo that story as well. Cliche plotline, that's why, really...

Twilight: On HIATUS, for the moment...but I sincerely hope I can revamp that story, too. -Looks around nervously- I'm sorry I can't do things right the first time!

Red Hardcover Novels: SHOULD I finish this story...? I'm still undecided on this one. Maybe if I feel its coming out all right...I'm still unsure of it for now, like I said.

Covenant: Still up and running, horray! Chapter 2 will be done soon, folks, as soon as I can establish where I want Alphonse's character to go...I love him, and I don't want to mess his character up, even if this IS an AU story! So the next update may be a while here, too...SORRY EVERYONE. -Wails- I'm pathetic, I knowwww...

For those of you who have read my works or plan to read them, thank you very, very much for taking the time to do so. I hope that you will enjoy your time here!
