Welcome~

Well hello! I'm not sure whether to be professional or witty, and since I'm not particularly spectacular at either of them, I'll settle for being myself. Excuse me while I admit to being computer illiterate for the most part, and apologize for my sad excuse for an ability, considering I'm technically a member of the computer-age generation, and yet, so not.

I'm late to putting my works in a place where they can be read for what they are, but seeing as my current works are something I consider myself to be increasingly proud of, I'm going to get myself literate and share them.

About myself... I am your wonderful, if not wonderfully incompetant, host: Rinna Luorda. Call me what you will; the list is unending. I myself am an inspired writer who is constantly finding things to push my creative limits further. The idea of sharing them via the web, however, was completely inspired by someone who's works I adore and look up to for her amazing skills: Kira Takenouchi. If you ever get the chance, please check out her works, as they are psychologically as well as literaturely beautiful.

More about the Author...

Name and such you've already gotten. Duh. So you wonder, what else do I really care about? Get on to writing you dimwit, isn't that what you're here for? Yeah, you're right. But I'll tell you anyway, because though I doubt people will take the time to read it, I hope you will, because there are a few reasons I'm interested in sharing the following about myself.

I'm a second year literature student, majoring entirely in the idea that I will go into teaching, while writing on the side. So, why is this important? It affects the way I hope to get certain elements from any possible reviewers. I'm not against the grueling aspects. Hate it, love it, I don't care. I'm not going to be an emotional wreck about it, I only hope to get pointers that will make it better. Those reviews are helpful to me, but be as nasty as you want about it, I won't take it as any more than constructive criticism even if you WANT it to hurt me. I'm not going to give up my career choice because of a few hurtful comments. Sorry.

But those kinds of reviews aren't the only thing I'm looking for. Don't think I just want to know if there's something you see WRONG with it. I'm just as interested in your opinions of what is good and what you like best about it. As a matter of fact, I'm prone to making great friends that way. Let us exchange e-mails, and we can discuss to the high moon all kinds of things. I love people. Especially opinionated ones. I get more out of talking to people willing to argue with me. Heck, I might learn something useful, heaven forbid. I am not afraid to admit that I might be wrong. I'm often wrong actually, so I've gotten used to it.

I am also completely in love with my boyfriend. What does that mean? I'm a guy and he's a guy... you can put two and two together, right? Yes, I'm gay. And I write yaoi fiction. Surprise, surprise. Don't argue ethics, I'm completely protective of my lover. If you're reading my fiction, I hardly doubt you could care anyway.

Speaking of him, he is my computer savior when on campus or at home. He is the one making sure I don't screw up with this complicated, blasted HTML as it is. All I have to do is use the little paragraph thingies and he puts it all together for me. Bless him for knowing how to do this, because it saves me a lot of time and frustration, let me tell you. He is also my inspiration a lot of the time, and there aren't enough words to describe how wonderful he is.

Other than that, I'm sure you can guess a good bit about my personality. But I'm not as opposing as I might come off as. I'm generally fun-going and light in personality when I'm not talking business or literature, rather than the serious type. I don't enjoy being a stickler like that, seeing as I'm a gamer and a lover of all things in animation, comedy, movies, etc. If you're witty in the slightest, I'll probably love you just because I lack in that department. Sarcasm is also another thing I usually fail at, but usually find amusing rather than insulting. Maybe that's because I'm used to it being used as a device aimed for humor by my horrible room mates, but who's counting the ways it can be used?

I'm open to talking partnerships, affilation, collaberations, brainstorming events, sharing ideas or anything like that with fellow writers, artists, etc. because I have nothing against any of the arts or the sharing of ideas. After all, what I can't do for one subject or idea, another might do glorious wonders for.

And that is all for the moment. Please check in for updates once I figure out how to effectively convey them with this conniving evil HTML... or get my boyfriend to figure it out for me.

Enjoy the stories. Anyone is free to e-mail me. My e-mail address is: nalada_lemonlade@hotmail.com. Please... don't ask, it's old; it's amusing. It has no real meaning, unless you look REAAAAALLY hard.
