Interests & Hobbies: collecting Anime wallpapers & using them in a screensaver. I'm always on the hunt for more wallpapers. ;) Also enjoy creating Wallpapers, Coloring, reading mangas, fanfics & online comics and visiting CAA.
Tend to enjoy Iruka , Time Travel, Obito, Naruto/Hinata and OC fanfiction. I've read the good, bad and the cliche. The latter two as much as I could endure.
Anti Yaoi, Yuri, Shounen Ai, Shoujo Ai & Harems Note: I'm all for free speech, but not interested in reading those genres. Wish FF.net & this site made it easier to exclude these from my searches. If anyone has attempted a Iruka & Kakashi straight friendship search you know what I'm talking about. And no, excluding the M rating doesn't put that much of a dent into the results.
I was all excited when I joined because you can exclude the "Yaoi / Yuri" in the warnings section. But, there's no way to exclude those genres in the Genres section. Very frustrating. Again, I'm not for censorship, but I'm weary trying to wade though the plethora of Iruka fanfictions that are 90% Yaoi in order to hopefully find maybe 10 - 20 friendship stories.
But that aside, I do like the better organization & categorizations of Naruto stories and the layout of the site much better than FF.net. I realize its a lot of work to build a site like this and appreciative of the hard work behind the scenes.
Btw, there's this "Mary Sue quiz" online somewhere and it was quite an enjoyable read.
Which "somehow" conveniently leads us to my little story, "Kokoro of Konoha". Alas, I failed in giving my OC wings, sparkle-poo and multicolored hair.
But, I did succeed in making her an orphan with a religion atypical in canon. Got several points there!
And, even though she doesn't have chakra & doesn't want to be a ninja, her presence does changes some of the events in the canon timeline, (some for better &/or not so bad).
There's enough drama, angst and "woe is me" in life and plenty of fanfiction that cater to that audience. No it won't be perfect. But, since I'm writing it, I'm gonna show how interesting the story can still be when the characters have an opportunity to make a better choice, dang it!
Okay, yes I know you saw the cliche of Naruto predictably adopting this applesauce addicted girl as his sister coming. (Psst, just don't tell him she hates ramen.)
Unfortunately, though her past wasn't easy, she didn't suffer those horrible fate of other OCs, (torture, abuse, tragedy or being the lone survivor of a massacre).
Nor is she completely loved or hated by everyone she meets though her beliefs tends to unnerve people. Nor is she accepted, much like Naruto.
Ah, she did survive as a traveling minstrel/singer, but doesn't have a perfect pitch nor a hypnotic angelic voice. Fiddles, messed that up too.
Tsk, perhaps I'm just not qualified to write rainbow perfect sparkle-poo angels or snarky grumpy angsty cliche characters? Maybe I need to stop correcting the typos &/or having my Mom proofread and fix my grammar?
Beware: "Kokoro of Konoha" the mediocre Mary Sue. Read at your own risk, it might even make you smile. And heaven forbid even force a involuntary chuckle out of Itachi.
Music Links - A couple of playlists that I use to help with my writers block &/or for inspiration for my current story.
Kokoro's Songs Playlist: A random collection of songs I can hear her singing at different points. Though I may never really reference them directly thoughout the story.

Kokoro Inspiration Playlist: Random collection of songs that suit either Kokoro, parts that happen in the story &/or different characters. Enjoy listening to it when I'm writing &/or need inspiration during writer's block.

Summary: What is the power of the weak and the weakness of power? What would the butterfly effects be with an OC with no chakra or ninja inclinations but a coveted special sensing ability? But that's not her only closely guarded secret. Psst, don't tell the hyper blond boy she hates ramen. [Just friendships for kids & OC for now. NO Yaoi/Yuri etc.]
