The Hunter - Meta Post Chapters 5-8
As I mentioned in the previous post, Kohaku and Rin begin their journey from Kyoto to Edo on the Nakasendo. Along the route were 69 stations or shukuba, each offering inns, restaurants and stables where weary travelers and their horses (presuming they had any) could rest.

The Hunter - Meta Post Chapters 1-3
I've got a massive Word .doc sitting on my hard drive with all the background research I did before I began writing The Hunter. Since this is very much a history-based story, I thought I might share some details about the events and places mentioned in the fic. Who knows, if inspiration hits this might just be an ongoing series.

(Untitled)
There are still times when I log in to my traffic stats on fanfiction.net and find myself caught off guard. I can't even comprehend 100, 200, and sometimes even more unique users reading a single chapter of my fic. It blows me away every single time. That's more kids than I teach in a full day. I don't think that'll ever feel "normal" to me. -
FA Awards: Thank you!
I just found out that I actually placed (and won!) in two categories of the Feudal Association Awards in July. The best part is that both fics that won are older. I sometimes even forget about them, so you can imagine how surprised I was to see that not only are people still reading them but still enjoying them too.
Thank you so much to everyone ( Read more... ) -
New Fic - The Hunter
Well, I couldn't stay away for long. Being unemployed has made me stir crazy like you would not believe, but it's also given me time to catch up on my fics.
I mentioned that I had a Kohaku/Rin fic that I'd been working on for a couple of years. It's still incomplete on my computer, but I've got a fair number of chapters ready to go that I'm willing ( Read more... ) -
LSR Notes - Chapter 40 "Sayonara"
For anyone who might be curious, the first half of the final chapter was almost wholly inspired by the song "The Ladder" by Andrew Belle.
Check it out below:

woe is me
faithless you and selfish me
i will leave a key for you outside my doorway
woe is me

LSR Update
Yes, yes, yes! Next chapter of LSR is now officially more than 2/3rds complete. I hope I can finish this ASAP. I want to share it so badly :D The identity of the gold bullet killer is finally (finally!) revealed. Can you guess who it is? -
Love's Smirking Revenge - Epilogue
Just wrote a bitching epilogue for LSR. Hello delicious plot twist! :D I don't think anyone will be able to predict this one, at least I hope not. It will certainly end the story on an interesting note and bring everything full circle. Can't wait! -

So pumped about the next chapter of LSR!!!!!
I was working on it tonight and parts 1 & 2 are finished. Just gotta complete part 3. I'm sorry it's taken this long but it is kind of the climax of the whole thing so I've gotta do it right. So far I'm loving it!!! I hope you guys do too!
Can't believe this has been a 5 year project. Wow... Time flies
