Greetings, fellow writers and readers. This account used to be called "igobyshakou," but I have been motivated to overhaul this account and begin (not quite) anew. Two nicknames I go by online are Shakou and Mihari, so either one of those are fine with me. Here, you'll find a lot of "Kingdom Hearts" fanfiction, along with a few fanfictions from other franchises. I would love for you to join me on my journeys with the written word. 

This will be my "happy place" where I write simply because I want to write - I'll save my original works, such as my book ideas and other things, for later times. I strongly believe that no one should ever have to abandon their inner child. Stories move me, and I hope I can move other people by continuing the storytelling tradition.

I do not own any characters or worlds from Kingdom Hearts or other franchises on which I base my stories. All rights belong to their respective owners. However, there will be and are some original characters and storylines WITHIN the fanfiction that are mine, and I respectfully request that you ask my permission before using any such content of mine. Thank you for understanding.

My main KH fanfiction series, "Mindgames and Links," as well as my KH holiday series, "A Kingdom Carol," have been on hiatus for some time, but I do have ideas for how to revive them and bring them back. If you like the changes I make, let me know! I've been dying to tell this story for a long time. <3 "MaL" will be renamed (TBA) and will still take place after all of the existing KH games (post-Dream Drop Distance). As for AKC? Well, come find out when it goes up. ;)

If you like my work and/or have any constructive criticism, please feel free to comment (with respect!) and/or message me. I promise I will do my best to answer every single one of you. Thank you so much!
