Hi, there! First things first, all characters appearing in my work are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental, and any fan fictions that I have posted here have individual disclaimers in the summary section.



I have been dubbed the Mary-Sue Guru by Rougeberry on Lunaescence for my extensive Mary-Sue guides entitled "Mary-Sue: Who is She?" and "The Mary-Sue Complaints Checklist," both of which I have published here.  And, as if that's not enough, I have a stand-alone guide called "How to Tell Your Friend They Have a Mary-Sue" with the first rule being NOT telling them they have a Mary-Sue.  Trust me, it's the most you'll ever read on Mary-Sues ever, and I have more plans for this subject.



I have also been dubbed the fanfiction guru and fanfiction connoisser here by @roo3story (AKA heatherlovatt) for my "evolved" thoughts and opinions over fanfiction.  I'm not sure about evolved, I'd say I'm more laid-back about it.  I thought it was all just common sense to not limit someone's creativity just because you may not like it.

"Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it." -- C. S. Lewis



"Write something to suit yourself and many people will like it; write something to suit everybody and scarcely anyone will care for it." -- Jesse Stuart



"A writer is a writer not because she writes well and easily, because she has amazing talent, because everything she does is golden. In my view, a writer is a writer because even when there is no hope, even when nothing you do shows any sign of promise, you keep writing anyway." -- Junot Diaz
