Author bio:

crazydominodragongirl = DG, though if you call me that without me telling you to, I always get really confused and wonder if you know me from somewhere.

Hi all. I'm a second-year grad student at Stanford in a very non-creative writing field. I waste away my life playing video games, for the most part. I write a lot less fanfiction now that I ragequit Luna, which also means that I write a ton more gratuitous stuff that I want to write... which equates to more and more stupid Prince of Tennis crossovers. Yup. I'm also an extremely lazy Japanese-to-English translator, though not at all fluent, which probably contributes to the slowness and laziness. See if you can figure out what I translate! (Hint: Prince of Tennis is a no-brainer. Try a different fandom.)

2012 Beta Bugger! I had a lot of fun with it, really; trying out all the new features, and how to break them, was always great. It meant you could do really ridiculous things to see if it they worked, and a surprising amount of time, they did! (To all new NaNoers: Did you know you can set your username and password to non-Unicode characters? This also means other language usernames if you're so inclined!)

My NaNo this year, decided on a whim while ceray and I were in Japantown, will be about tea. Upon further thought, I decided to write it in the style of Kino's Journey and Mushishi, which basically means it's a series of short stories with the same main character, a traveler of sorts.

The reason it's classified as fantasy? Because the best way to play around with different settings and characters and situations is for that main character to be a world-hopping tea merchant. 8Db
