| "The Tears Of A Mad Man" is what I used for when I used to write crappy StH fanfiction on Fanfiction.net when I was, like, 13. I wrote a bit of better stuff more recently with a guy by the name of Sean Catlett, but most of it never got online (and what did went under the alias "Nosebleed, Inc"). I fixed the name up a bit and reused it, seeing as I'm unoriginal and lazy. I don't recall the reason I made the name or what it means...like I said, I was 13, so it could quite possibly be nothing. |

Hey, don't be so hard on yourself! I liked "My Own Rapture" and the others.
It goes a little something like this:
I like StH. I write an StH fanfic. Sean Catlett reviews it reasonably, saying it had interesting ideas but a somewhat poor execution. True, yes, but I was a newbie and didn't know it, thus refuting the criticism. I get banned for flaming another writer for his... disgusting portrayal of another favorite video game character of mine in true lemon fashion. I end up liking lemons and lament FF.net's disassociation with them. I discover how awesome the PPG show is in 2001 after avoiding it like the plague for three years. I rejoin FF.net under a different name writing PPG fanfics. I join RR.net. You join PPGWorld. You end up here when the action over there dies down.
Tarrsk goes over to Halo.Bungie.org just before I've left there and arrived here. Bizarre. So, this is where the song comes from, eh? It's a small world after all! |

Whoa. Thats kinda trippy. Someone from here has actually *read* my fanfiction? Thats all kinds of freaky.
In all honesty, I hated MoR. The first few chapters had absolutely no paragrpahs and the entire concept was ripped from Se7en (as much as I didn't want it to be). Not to mention the poor grammar/spelling. But thanks for the kind words, although I don't think I've ever seen your stuff on FF.Net.
As a side note, I too (as well as quite a few others) greatly dislike FF.Nets idea of getting rid of NC-17 rated fics. Another side note, I've quit writing because A) FF.Nets Sonic section is filled with shit and B) I don't have anything to inspire me anymore. Ah well. So it goes. |

I wrote a fanfic entitled "The 15th Dimension Blue". Never finished it, but it went something like... Sonic and a group of soldiers enter a portal to a surreal place featuring a constantly-shifting landscape with bizarre monsters and environmental hazards, and they have to work together to survive or something like that.
Y'know, maybe I'll get back into Fanfiction writing. Back then, my style wasn't that great either, and since then, it's greatly improved. But, quite like you, I've run out of... inspiration. Gotta look for it, I guess.
You see, I was into writing script-style works (hah, all my PPG fanfics were deleted because of FF.net's recent "Enforcement" of script-fic removal. Even when they were years old and nobody read them anymore, they still found them, somehow.). Trust me, they were far from being the worst. They actually had something resembling a plot. Although, now I sort of frown upon their Revenge-fic (suffering and/or death of main characters) undertones.
I know how bad it can get. I've seen lots of fanfics that delve into the terribly overdone realm of random insanity. When done properly, it can be quite entertaining. But it's only done properly 0.9% of the time. Here's an example of random-fic done right:
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/602320/1/
Hahah, I've always loved that one.
... Well, here's one done wrong:

Terrible, eh? It's a crime that so many good fics were deleted for being "against the rules", while garbage like this remains. I've come to despise FF.net. Their rules have become incredibly petty, and cater to the state of mind in which we all fellate the writers of fiction like "the day i got a shotgun". Just look at those reviews! Sickening. And it's a script too. The fact that it's lasted over two weeks is surprising, and appalling, considering all the masterpiece scripts that were removed unjustly.
I guess I'll leave it at that. In any case, it's good to see you! ;) |

Tell me about me. Sean and I have both had our accounts deleted because we broke some inane rule or another, as well as a few other extremely talented writers. I've pretty much given up on FF.Net, as have most people with at least a shread of sense.

You as well. I'm still surprised to see someone from FF.Net here, let alone someone from the Sonic section. |

I used to be Iceie.
Because I liked Ice.
And I used to run around in the backyard thinking I was the Ice God.
Then.
I came back.
All stealth like.
As Tikitiki.
I liked that name, because it sounded...
Spiffy.
But then I left because I got bored.
Then I released that I would never be the same without this place that wasted so many years of my life.
And [cellar.door.].
Uhm.
I have no fucking idea.
I had alot of Mountain Dews.
I didn't know what the hell was going on.

As some might know, the first three letters of my user name simply reflect my real name, Theresa Marie...HEE. If you're so desprite it's on one of the old pics on the main fanart page. And then the "power" part is for Powerpuff. Simple? Yeah.:P
However, I hate it when it's spelled wrong: TMB power, TMBPower, TMB Power, TMBpow. It's TMBpower, mindless ones. If that be too hard to understand, just call me TMB, danggit. |

Sujin's the name of my character and she's either an anime character or a puffed character. I like my puffed character, so I just put Puff in my name.
And for those who know me from other places may already know where I got the name Saiyan-puff from. =P (Yes, that's me. TEH HORROR!) |
