Long time no see…
I just ventured onto two websites I haven’t visited in… seems like forever. Mostly checking to see if the profiles were still up to date. (But of course I had a lovely wallow through the fanart.)

Mood Stripes 002: Devastated
Disclaimer: I do hereby disclaim all rights and responsibilities for the characters in this audacious adventure… especially for the frightened one. A nod of recognition is bent towards Rumiko Takahashi for her creative prowess.
Chapter 2: Devastated
“Is he breathing?”
Inuyasha swore and crouched until his ear covered the lower half of Sesshoumaru’s face. Widening eyes flicked to Kagome’s face.
“Is he…?”
“He ain’t dead.” The hanyou grabbed handfuls of bloodied silk. “You hear me, bastard? You...

Update on Bookplates
Goodies arrived! If you have been considering getting a signed bookplate for your copy of Tsumiko and the Enslaved Fox, I can now show you what they look like!

Your bookplate will personalized, signed, and numbered. And since it’s a sticker, it can be affixed to the flyleaf page of your print edition. Because I can’t personally stamp your book if you buy it online, I’ve had stickers made.

And I’m ready for both domestic and international requests! So… who wants one?

FanFic: Mood Stripes
Don’t scold me for starting something new when I have SO MANY (so, so many) unfinished fanfics. Because this is a special case. I needed an exclusive story for this blog. We can call it incentive for readers to drop by. Or we could call it a treat for those of you who are already keeping me company here. But really… this is me goofing off. (Same as always.)
Story Summary: In the aftermath of the Final Battle, the victors lick their wounds and look ahead. However, a misspent wish on the Shikon...
COMPLETE: Clumsy
May as well give this story its official Closure Notice. My genderbent SK is still updating at fanfiction.net, but it’s complete in one hundred chapters here. ::confetti toss::
Clumsy 100: Mine
Disclaimer: I do hereby disclaim all rights and responsibilities for the characters in this topsy turvy tale… especially for the one who chooses for herself. A nod of recognition is bent towards Rumiko Takahashi for her creative prowess.
Chapter 100: Mine
Kagomaru simply held her, and Sesshoume began losing patience. So she stole his hair tie. At least now he was looking at her. She arched a brow. “I concede the chase.”
“Erm… yes.”
He seemed surprised when she unknotted his belt. “My touch is...

COMPLETE: Imperceptible
Finally! This winding tale has finally been given its finale. Safe to say it’s the longest chapter of the 100. Enjoy!
Nearly done…
As promised, I will be posting Imperceptible‘s final chapter today. Bear in mind that “nearly done” in writer’s terms probably translates to HOURS, especially since I need to give this monster a final read-through, and uploading will involve a fair amount of formatting. But I’m pleased with progress… though it might go faster if I wasn’t crying over every little thing. ::wibble::
