Empress Dotshide bio
Author has written 30 stories for Golden Sun, Final Fantasy VIII, Fire Emblem, Fruits Basket, and Kingdom Hearts. I'm a college student with a fetish for fanfiction. (I also adore alliteration and assonance.) I'm currently 21 years old, and in my senior year of college as a print journalism major. I once dabbled in Golden Sun and Fire Emblem fanfiction; unfortunately, all of my WIPs in those fandoms have gone off and died in the Hiatus Desert. My interests shift easily, so I may one day come back to writing those fics, but we'll see. Currently, I'm dabbling in X/1999 and Final Fantasy VIII fanfictions, both in progress, neither of which are posted on this site, but can be found on my writing journal, which is linked up above. Thank you for your time. |
