I had never even considered writing a fanfic until I played Golden Sun. Something about this game spoke to me. Maybe it was the plot, maybe it was the deep fantasy world, or maybe it was just the wonderful characters, but whatever the reason, I started writing about it and I have no regrets. Apparently I'm very well known in the GS section of FF.net, though really, I have absolutely no idea how that happened! I just write because it's fun. The wonderful reviews I get and the friends that I've made through writing are the icing on the cake! ^_^
What follows is a list of my GS fics with summaries. You can click the titles to read the stories, but keep in mind that they are hosted at Fanfiction.net. It's a great site, but it can be slow and buggy at times. It also has invasive and annoying ads. I apologize for this, but it was so much easier to link to the stories than format them for my own site. Maybe someday I'll do that.
