Hi! You've reached the blog of Talya Firedancer. This place is for my mental maunderings and random thoughts. XD I'm twenty-three, a Leo, and an irredeemable yaoitic fangirl and fanfiction writer. I enjoy anime, reading and writing, playing around with the internet, my Playstation 2, and the two cats that run around the house. Right now I work as an admin assistant for peanuts, but my dream job is either as an editor with a publishing company, or a bestselling author. XD

Currently reading: "The Dark is Rising," by Susan Cooper.
"Good Omens" by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman.

Currently playing: "Xenogears."

Currently writing: [original] "Morgan Vale" ch.5. Previews at Tayfic.

Current scary searchengine hit: What makes me blink is the fact that I'm the #1 hit for this.

The short explanation

Depression, medium-rare, with a side order of health problems and no medical card for dessert.

I'll be shutting down the blog temporarily tomorrow; it will be up with a redirect link and a new layout when I feel better. Hopefully that'll be soon.

In the meantime, I get to spend quality time with my other half before she leaves for Kelowna, B.C. for a week. I can be reached at the normal addresses but I'm only checking, sporadically, at work.

Love and kisses,
tay

FYI:

No, I am not feeling well. I expect to keep the laptop shut off for many days. If you need to get in touch with me, do so with becki at knm@kuwamiko.com; it will be the only way. I don't expect to check mail for...well, many days.

Zoe, thanks for the note. I don't have the energy to answer my mail, but I appreciate your comments and queries. Good luck with the truffle fic.

Yea, verily, she said, there will be no more new fiction for awhile. Neither will there be more old fiction. For she is tired, and weary of spirit. And hath no medication at this time to dope away woes.

Instead, perhaps there will be a Musespace. For A-musement is good, and no one likes to listen to whingeing.

And Muses don't get headaches or hereditary stomach disease.

Yay, more fanart. This is Tsumaru, the Chocoboy, from becki's RPG site. Decent, for the first piece of fanart I've done since around '99.

Fuu. Off to sell more stuff on e-bay.

W00t. Behold. Take pity on me, for I am poor.

GW Doujinshi "Hexagram". Shounen-ai, very nice, from becki's collection.
Gluhen Tour VCD Believe me, we would NOT be selling this if the frickin' PS2 would play it. It's a VCD, not a DVD.
"Bodyguard Alpha," vol.1 A shounen-ai manga from "Zeus Comics," from my collection. (Actually a 21st birthday present...damn, I'm poor.)
"Bodyguard Alpha," vol.2 Volume 2, "Zeus Comics," a gift from becki.
FLOWERING, a hard yaoi (SUPER BBC) comic involving all sorts of interesting elements. I forget which one of us bought this.
"Zeus," vol.1 a beautiful manga by Higuri You, mangaka of "Seimaden." Shounen-ai, incest elements. From becki's collection.
"Zeus," vol.2 - It is a gorgeous manga; I'm only selling it because becki didn't like the ending, and I need the money. Wish I could've gotten her to sign this too.

If I don't win this duel and nail every move, the fairies won't give me a prize. Plink, damn you, plink.

^_^;;; It really is time for a new layout. I wonder if I can get becki to scan that picture today, since that's the only one I want to use.

I feel like I'm back in college. I'm having lunch for breakfast, I'll have my dinner for lunch, and I'll probably get home some time around one or two and play video games for the rest of the afternoon...

Anyhow, I bought Dark Cloud. This will truly insure my 'Net absence for the next week or so.

....and I still need to finish edits for "Burn Like the Sun" and "The Soldier's Bedding." Boy, it's not that I'm lazy...it's more that I spend my time on all the wrong things. >.>

Everyone, have a good day. ^_^ *wanders away muttering something about 'fanart'*
