Memories of Dune
This series is being written in memory of Frank Herbert and the legacy he left us. Like any other true Dune fan, I feel disgust at the crap that Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson wrote to continue the Dune novels. Hunters and Sandworms were especially crappy, and contradicted Frank Herbert's Dune novels so many times, also ignoring the message that he was giving us (through writing about Leto II and his Golden Path). There was also too much personal drama and unnecessary filler material that stretched it into two books.
Hence, this series is what I think Dune 7 should have been. Mind you, I am not endeavouring to attempt to write a full-length novel. Rather, I am writing short drabbles and oneshots based on what would be important events after Chapterhouse Dune. I might not be Frank Herbert, but I do my best to honor his legacy, and hopefully give you a better read than Hunters/Sandworms. I felt that 'Memories' was an appropriate title for my series, conside

I've been a Mega Man fangirl for a long time. The first game I ever played was MM3 and that was nearly 20 years ago, and since then have played MM 1-7, as well as MMX 1-3 and the Game Boy games. I know there's a lot more MM games than this, but I'm a old-school girl at heart and haven't played any of the games on a platform more recent than SNES though I do know the general storylines of the future Megaman series.
I used to watch the Ruby-Spears cartoon as a kid, and I've also seen the Upon a Star OVA. In my opinion it would have been nice if the OVA had Mega Man as a real person, like the Ruby-Spears cartoon, instead of escaping from his game to the real world, but I still liked the anime. I saw a few episodes of Megaman NT Warrior but I didn't like that as much.
I love the Megamix/Gigamix manga, and hope that the rest of the mangas will be brought here stateside soon enough. I also love the Archie Comics series, it's interesting to note the difference between this

and just had to comment on it. I even argued using Biblical scripture to show proof of how petty and vengeful Jehovah really can be. I USED BIBLICAL EVIDENCE, from the very same Bible that this deviant reads! I didn't make up anything.|
Hello my dears. I am Spleef/Spleefmistress/CultofStrawberry. Has it really been ten years since I joined this site? Gosh... I enjoy reading, drawing, writing, swimming, cooking, hikes, and walks on the beach. (ahh, Nature...) I will read nearly anything (as long as it's a decent read) and my favorite magazine is Reader's Digest. I have written and published three novels and am currently working on a fourth one. I have NEVER been one to suffer fools - whether it be foolish ex-boyfriends or religious nutjobs or stupid ghetto black people or white trash or sick fucks - and have a very low patience threshold, so when I see fundamentalists insist that there is something wrong with being gay, or that the Bible is the only truth in life and all are going to hell, I tend to get confrontational and in their faces. I absolutely hate it when people say that their own religion is better than others and that everyone else is wrong and forever hopelessly condemned to eternity in the firepit. I'm not afraid of getting into your face, and I fucking give as good as I get. I am part of the Nezperdian Hivemind, so at least I'm not burdened by a set of illogical, whacked-out beliefs. For ZALGO protects me and blesses my mind. I also adore cats. Cats are the most splendid creatures on earth with the prettiest little paws anybody could ever ask to see. <3 I used to do a lot more art, since when I was little I drew a lot in class because I got bored a lot (the teacher was repeating crap I already knew) and everyone was like, wow! you have nice art!, and my parents sent me off to school for art. Yeah, my art is 'nice', but as I started writing I realized that I enjoy writing more and that I can create a better image with my words than with my pictures... Weird, right? I graduated from college with an art major - and I did learn quite a few things that have benefited me - but I also took minors in English (for writing) and History. Yes, my other passion is history - I love learning about culture and folklore. I also love reading nhistorical fiction (as long as it's well-researched!) Please enjoy my gallery and writing, and feel free to email or note me! I'm a friendly person and don't bite. At least, not unless you're kinky and WOULD like me to gnaw on you...
