**A/N: Alright, so originally I was posting on my bio on FanFiction.net, however it's starting to get lengthy and I was only posting monthly. I'd like to truly keep my readers up to date on my progress of my stories - especially since lately I've been taking friggen THREE MONTHS to post my next chapter/story. I'm just transferring my previous updates here and then I'll post simultaneously.
Anyway, I'm not entirely sure anyone really CARES enough to read my progress, but if you are one of my faithful readers who would like an update every once in a while, please sign my guestbook so I know who I'm writing for. I'd like to say "hi" ^_^
And yet ANOTHER short update. Keep in mind I was purposely doing this because originally these were all on my profile...**

Wow, I had NO idea that this next chapter would take so long! Anyway, the whole "writing while on vacation" thing didn't pan out. Ended up going hard-core on the whole "wedding planning" thing instead. :-P And then work and Christmas sort of snuck up on me. However, I DID manage to write the first two pages of the chapter! Yay progress! So, if anyone out there is actually reading this and waiting for my next chapter I thank you for caring and I apologize for the wait. I hope it proves worth it! ^_^
Welcome to my weird hybrid of diary, information center, and promotion hub. This blog is SUPPOSED to be focused on my writing (mostly fanfiction). I'll post updates on how my writing is going, and promote my latest projects. I do tend to also veer towards generic venting about my life, as well as talk about my latest obsession, be it a game or other piece of media. So, come hang out for a while, and get to know me a bit better. I'd love to have you here.

Happy belated Thanksgiving, Americans. Well, I HAD intended to post the next chapter by now - especially considering how much I was looking forward to writing it. However, I spent about a week trying to write the song (see below update) - and I still don't have it finished :-P And then I got sick and spent almost a week in bed (downside to having a desktop). And finally, this week was taken up with 10-hr work days, Thanksgiving, cleaning the house FOR Thanksgiving, working on wedding invitations, packing to visit my fiance, and finally, working on my resume... And so, not a lot of time this month to write. Perhaps I'll find time while on vacation next week.

I just shouldn't try to write songs....

I want to start off by again thanking everyone who read my last chapter. 113 hits the day it was posted! Before that the largest turnout I EVER had was about 40-some hits! So yet again, THANK YOU! ^_^ Ok, now that I've got that out of my system. Let's talk about the NEXT chapter. As mentioned in the previous update, I am TOTALLY looking forward to writing it. However, I have to first complete a project FOR the chapter before I can start writing it. A song that will play a sort of key role in the rest of the story "premieres" (as it were) in this chapter, and so I have to make sure I have the perfect song. Originally I was searching all over the internet for just the right song, and just when I thought I found it, a wrench was thrown in to my plans. Namely, that all other celebrities and music used in the Hey Arnold universe are either originals or parodies of actual celebs/songs. For instance: Dino Spumoni instead of Frank Sinatra/Dean Martin (and by extension I guess Nancy Spumoni instead of Nancy Sinatra), Mickey Kaline instead of Mickey Mantle/Al Kaline, Ronnie Matthews instead of Ricky Martin, Revis and Jackie Lee instead of Regis and Kathie Lee, and even Wally the Alligator instead of Barney the Dinosaur. If I were to use an actual singer/song in the Hey Arnold universe it just wouldn't feel right. And so, I am now taking the style of the songs I was most fond of, and I'm writing my own song. I'm not a song writer, so this will prove interesting X-P

Dear LOOOOOORD! It kept me forEVER to finish it, but I FINALLY completed the second chapter to my Hey, Arnold! story "What's Truly Meant to Be: A Hey Arnold Musical". Wow.... about two weeks over due according to my last update! :-P
I really didn't want to write this chapter, it's kinda depressing and I don't like having to put myself in that mindset - especially since work and home life both suck right now and all I wanted to do is watch funny anime like "The Familiar of Zero". Anyway, the chapter is up and I'm really looking forward to writing the next one, so I hope it won't take me a full month to do yet another update....
The family life drama should more-or-less sort itself out by the end of this week, and so that should open up time for me to actually write. In the meantime, I'd like to thank everyone who came to check out my second chapter today! I had the most hits I ever had for one of my stories, and I didn't think anyone even liked this one! So, again, thank you!

And so it begins...

I'm also in the process of my first chaptered FanFic, "What is Truly Meant to Be: A Hey Arnold Musical". Basically, it is a string of Song Stories where each chapter is loosely based on a different song. It appears to be flopping right now, but I'll finish it anyway because *I* want it finished. So... Nnnnnnnaaaaaaaah X-P
*Ahem* As far as that novella goes, I first posted about 1/2 the chapter to get my feelers out there. Plus, I was excited about the story, wanted people to read it, and I was at what felt like a natural stopping point. Anyway, I finished the first chapter, updated, and apparently FF.net doesn't send out alerts or whatever when you just update a chapter that's already published. Makes sense, but I just want to let anyone reading this know that if you don't know who the third person is in the love triangle you didn't read the full first chapter. Go back and finish that before moving on or the rest of the story won't really make sense.
As far as posting the second chapter, I'm working on it now. However, it's not all butterflies and fuzzies, and so it's taking me a while to get going. I don't like getting myself in to a depressed state to properly write this next chapter, but it has to be done. *sigh* I'm hoping to not only post this chapter within two weeks or so, but I'm also hoping to post a new chapter at least once a month.
Alright, that should be a good enough start for this blog. Hope to keep up with it.

Well, as of right now I have two one-shots posted on FF.net that seem to be hits. Both are for the Hey, Arnold! fandom - a current obsession of mine. The first fanfic I wrote was about Arnold coming to terms with Helga's confession towards the end of the movie. It's a cute little story between him and his grandfather. It's called "The Moral of Gertie". The second story is my take on the infamous "Kiss Scene" in the never produced second Hey, Arnold! movie: The Jungle Movie. Although "Word of God" stated the kiss was going to be at the end of the movie, and I always thought it would happen while the gang was packing up to head home again, like in this story; I wrote "Master of Breaking and Entering" after dreaming the scene. I think it works. People seem to like it anyway. *shrug*I'm also in the process of my first chaptered FanFic, "What is Truly Meant to Be: A Hey Arnold Musical".
