"This is a fault common to all singers, that among their friends they will never sing when they are asked; unasked, they will never desist."

Lindir is Elvish for "One Who Sings".
In The Lord of the Rings and perhaps The Silmarillion, Lindir was a Sindarin elf who lived in Rivendell, who loved to sing and may have been a minstrel.

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken:
The crownless again shall be king.

I haven't been on ff.net for so many years, but I've got to keep myself sane through graduate school, so here I am, once again. I'm an extremely slow writer because I really just don't have the time with sixteen hour work days and being on call and whatnot.

While I'm not ashamed of my high school work, sometimes I cringe when I re-read them. Most have teenager written all over them and it's a tad embarassing.

I'm a girl, not a boy; I just liked the above picture of Muguruma Kensei from Bleach. I have a definite weak spot for the vizards, especially Hirako Shinji. But Naruto holds a special place in my heart; it is the third anime now officially on my all-time favorite anime list.

Story Updates (2/4/09)
Palindrome (3/5): This poor story has hit a wall. I'm frustrated but I'm also not happy with what I have, and I don't like to give things anything less than my best.

Absolution (in the works): Might actually be ready to post. Might.

Untitled Naruto Project: Actually, this might work.

Life Updates (2/4/09)

I've decided to start a livejournal since I have lots of little drabbles and ideas that I don't consider publish-worthy, and so that I can basically whine and complain on a regular basis. I'll also be posting my story updates there BEFORE I post here, becuase I'll be looking for feedback!

Many loves, little time. The story of my life.
