Well, since the other two who have their own rooms posted a thread like this, I figured I might as well post one too. If you have a question, comment, suggestion, or death threat, just post it here and I'll respond in the best way I know how.

*Smiles.* I'll ask you the same thing I asked Oneechan. How long have you been writing, Sage Kaine?

Well, I dabbled on and off while I was younger, but I really lacked the creativity and motivation to write more than maybe one handwritten page.
It wasn't until the autumn of 2005 that I really started writing heavily. About that time, just before my 16th birthday, I really wanted to write a Zelda fan fiction, something that happened just after OoT, but with a new villain no one had ever seen and with plot twists more commonly found in mystery novels. I started my Zelda epic, Reign of Darkness, in the upstairs area of the community college I was attending. I've been working on it ever since.
I've also branched out into numerous other works, many of them Zelda fan fiction. I've started at least 5 different Zelda stories, 3 of which I definitely plan to update and finish.
I've attempted Metroid fan fiction as well, though only one of those stories has really gotten off the ground. I hope to finish that one as well.
My biggest ambition, however, is a massive, 21-book epic saga, in a universe I have created. I don't want to give out too many details now, because I'm starting to get slightly paranoid about internet plagiarism, but I can give anyone more details via private messaging if you'd like. ;D I hope to get this saga published some day, whether I publish it, or I can find a company willing to take a risk on an amateur like myself.
I've also dabbled in RPing a couple times, but my first real attempt has been here, with The Legend of Zelda: Ascent of the Demon King, and Shades of Gray.
And, as you know by now, I've finished my first attempt in the world of short stories. I might try and get that puppy published at some point, but I'm not sure. I just hope you all enjoyed reading it, lol.
All in all, I've been writing consistently for about 5 years now. I know my skills have increased, because I haven't really gotten rid of anything I've ever written. Some of it is really rough, lol. But I'm proud of where I'm at, and I'm gonna keep writing so I keep getting better at it. ;D

*Smiles.* You have quite a background to your work, Sage Kaine. It's no wonder your writing never fails to draw me in, with the varied amount of experience you have. You're certainly no amateur, though. You have a lot of skill, and everyone has room for improvement. I've no doubt in my mind that you can and will be published sooner or later. ^_^
Hehe, determination is a good trait in authors. That's for sure. And you can be sure that, as long as I know where you'll be around online, I'll be reading your work.

Hahaha.
My biggest project is a huge original story I started 3 years ago. It started off as a little blurb about a sorcerer, and now it's a massive, 21 book spanning saga. I've written out summaries and planning for all 21 stories, so I know how they all start and end, who the main characters are, who dies, etc. It's just filling in all the details that'll take me a long time. I think overall I have about... 50 pages or so of material for all of it. And considering I plan to have no less than 800 pages per book, that will be a LOT of writing. xD
My second largest project is my Zelda epic, Reign of Darkness. It'll span probably two books, though I doubt Nintendo will ever let me publish it.

Awesome. Hopefully I can expect to see the Zelda epic here, at least.
