About the Author: First of all, don't be alarmed if I, at any point, refer to myself in third person. It's an annoying habit that I picked up somewhere along the line and I like to have fun with it now and again. That said, yo! Thank you for taking the time to check out my profile! :) I don't think there's really anything special to be said here, but hmm...
I'm an INFP with an unhealthy interest in the MBTI and it's 16 profiles, all thanks to
pichi, blame her! I'm absolutely obsessed with role-playing, cosplaying, and Avatar: The Last Airbender. Music is my first love, as it's been there for me since long before I discovered the internet, but that's not really unusual. I come from a pretty musical family overall. Both of my parents have amazing voices, and my brother, though he'd be reluctant to admit it (*lol*) played clarinet in band for years.
I'm also infatuated with Kingdom Hearts II, and that series in general, and more recently with Naruto (though I'm very late in actually getting around to watching the whole series.), along with some other series, but those are my current fandoms. One thing that you should be forewarned about, my original (and some canon) characters, or at least a few of them, tend to get pretty noisy, and since I've decided to start sharing this journal with them things MIGHT get a little weird. It's a form of venting, or creative expression, however you want to call it my characters have lives of their own. Though they started as fictional ideas on paper, as they spent more time in my head they've started to become more and more rounded until they've become as real as actual people to me, with a wide range of emotions and likes and dislikes, opinions, and quirks, so again... don't be too surprised if you see a post from "Tony" pop up once in a while, or Rio, or Ed, or any of the others lurking around here. For the most part, though, they have character journals already, and might just stick to those. Who knows?
Anyway, if you haven't been scared off yet, proceed with caution! See you inside!

Regarding language/profane content:
Before we get too far I do want to take a moment to let you know that this journal might feature coarse language and general weirdness (but if you know me at all, you're already expecting that. Ha ha.).
However: This is not an open invitation for anyone to start posting anything inappropriate on my journal (Do not post lewd images or crap that doesn't belong)!
Some Guidelines:
1. Constructive criticism is welcomed -if- I end up posting anything serious here. If you have some advice or spot anything that needs major corrections I would prefer to have such things sent to me via comments.
2. No flames. If you don't support Zutara, then don't read the story/drabble/what-have-you that's labeled "ZUTARA", because though I like reviews and accept tasteful critiques, I am not going to have anything to do with flaming other than letting Aang and Zuko use them for firebending practice. : I have a place for flames-- points to as of yet blank journal post --so if you're looking to wind up on the "Wall of Flame-Shame" to have the favor returned, be my guest.
4: Mock flames are fun. I certainly appreciate a bit of GOOD NATURED HUMOR at my own expense, and friendly banter is good mental exercise! If you want to leave me a sarcastic review or email, that's alright. Please do not get Mock-flames mixed up with real-flames!
5: You're welcome to propose challenges to me, be it by email or comment, just don't be upset, please-please-please, if I don't get to it right away! Also keep in mind that for the moment I prefer to do one-shots and drabbles, in the fandoms listed (For my own reasons. These are fandoms in which I feel comfortable writing for at least three or more characters.) and these will be the probable format response to any issued challenges.
6: Last thing: As I like GETTING challenges I also enjoy giving them! If you're interested in taking on any of my said challenges, scoot on over to my FFN profile (
http://www.fanfiction.net/~eechan) to find an easy to navigate list/directory of my finished challenges/collections. Be sure that you link me if you respond to one of my issued challenges so I can put your props up on the journal and/or link them on my FFN page!
7: Koree. Loves. Fanart. As my first PERSONAL and general challenge, I will write a responding GIFT drabble or one-shot (complete with credits/dedication to the artist) for any fanart that I'm given for the fandoms that I listed above. It cannot be pre-existing fanart, however. I will only do gift-drabbles and one-shots for new/unique fanart (So, for instance, if you draw a Zutara fanart and send it to me via Email I'll respond with a gift drabble/one-shot.).
