Man I take way too long between stories, sorry folks. I've opened an account on Fictionpress.com under the same name, Irish-Ninja. I'll be posting original stuff there very soon, but I will still be making fanfics to, I'm a geek that way. Anyways, if you wanna know a little about me...
Real name
: Liam
Home: the small urban community of Canada
Occupation: Struggling musician/frustrated auther

Hobbies: writing music, stories and poetry
Confessions: I'm a videogame addict, I likely could have my band signed by now if I didn't spend so much time playing SSX3
What music do I like: I don't know if I can specifically catagorize what I like, I have fairly broad horizons, but if it helps my current playlist consists of Thousand Foot Krutch, Sugarcult, Pillar, Skillet, Papa Roach, Saliva, Econoline Crush, Finger Eleven and Linkin Park

Current Project: It's yet ANOTHER SSX fic, titled "Invasion" (Happy Collision? Now ya don't hafta curse me =D). It takes place roughly 7-8 months after Letting Go. I won't go too into the storyline, but it's going to address some of the new additions of the upcoming SSX game that will be released this fall, and have a lot of new adjustments for the SSX vets.
What was my motivation for my previous project(s)?:
Psymons' Secret - Psymon is one of my favorite characters from SSX. I like Psymon because he makes me laugh (he has possibly the most hilarious facial expressions in the history of videogames), but then one night at about 2am I got this strange idea to think of his past as a more serious manner and if it could be pulled off in an actual story, the result was Psymon's Secret.
The Orange Cat Situation - The ongoing story of the Orange Cat over the M-comm in SSX3 is always good for a chuckle, I thought it would be fun to put my orange cat Peanut into the story.
Canuck Combat - It started off with more or less the mocking of the Dead Or Alive cast, but actually developed into a storyline, dunno where it all came from but I'm glad it came.
Snow Trapper - Well, a lot of people asked me to make some kind of follow up to Psymon's Secret, and I thought the storyline was kind of fun so I threw it all together into a bowl, zapped it in the microwave and served it up.
Why do I Fight?: I'm not totally sure where this story came from. I was playing a lot of Unreal Tournament 2004 around the same time that I was going through a rather crappy time in my life. During an online game one of my buddies said "man, at least we don't have to put up with what these guys put up with lol" as his character was gunned down in a rather disrespectful fashion, and that got the cogs and gears turning.
Letting Go: This actually is taking my SSX series and applying it to a personal account. I was surprised to find a flood of Emails asking me to do another SSX story, but I had no really new subject matter as I was heavily distracted with something going on in my life, so I applied that to my story. I recently had to deal with the reality of changes and letting my little sister go, so if anything this story is like a vent for me to help get a grip on those feelings.
Invasion: The last of my SSX stories!... I'd say I promise, but I can't promise to promise... I hope that made sense. In a nutshell, it's the final (hopefully) story of my series that spun off from Psymon's Secret. An estranged SSX superstar has created his own league and they go after SSX and the crew. More action and aggression in this story than in my other SSX accounts, but I thought it made a kinda fun story regardless.

If you had to give your stories a theme song, what would they be:Well, for Psymon's Secret I would have to say Kutless' Sea of Faces. Obviously it's a song that didn't fit every moment of the story, but the words are very relative, plus if you listen to that song during chapters 6 and 10 it fits very well. For the Orange Cat Situation, I would say cheesie 50's TV show theme songs like Leave it To Beaver =D As for Canuck Combat, I actually didn't listen to a lot of music while writing that because the moods shift so frequently. For The Snow Trapper it was a lot of darker music like early Linkin Park, Papa Roach and early Econoline Crush, with the exception of the more mellowed out and somewhat romantic scenes (sorry to ruin it for ya kiddies) For Why do I Fight, a lot of more intense hard rock for the combat scenes and the most possibly depressing songs I could find for everything else (Finally a use for Wide Mouth Mason and Seether) And for Letting Go, the theme song would definately be Simple Plan's How Could this Happen to Me as that song was sort of my song during the events taking place in my life as I wrote it. For Invasion I actually was listening a lot to my old band. Manic Drive (www.manicdrive.com... shameless plug I know).

Oneshot. An idea I had for a full story, but before committing to making something huge I figured I better find out if you folks like the idea.

I'll fight For You reviews
Been so long since I've posted anything. Here's a follow up story to my old story Canuck Combat. What happens when Phil is forced to ally with those he can't trust to save the one he loves? Much darker and less humourous story than Canuck Combat.

This one's all for Collision. SSX is facing one of their largest hurdles yet! What is this challenge? Who is their opponent? Will Irish Ninja stop asking cliche suspense questions? Only way to find out is to read it! Rated Teen for language.

Letting Go reviews
Wow you guys rock. Though it is against my better judgement, by multiple Email requests I have made a new installation to my ongoing SSX series (Make sure to read my other two stories, Psymon's Secret and The Snow Trapper first as there is some OOC).

Why do I fight? reviews
Very dark outlook through the eyes of a competitor in the Unreal Tournament. I would not advise anyone that struggles with depression to read this story as it becomes very negative compared to my other works. M rating for language and graphic violence.

The Snow Trapper reviews
The SSX crew has been invited to a party high atop peak three, little do they know that their night of fun will quickly become a living Hell. I recommend reading my other fic, Psymon's Secret, before reading this. Chapters 11 & 12 are finally up.

Psymon Stark is regaled as the nut of the SSX circuit, but what happens when he attempts a stunt he failed to complete in the past? Story may undergo some out of character moments, but I hope you all like it regardless. All 11 chapters are up now! R&R
