I was approached yesterday by someone who has sight difficulties. She'd got as far as Annals 1, when the rest of the stories weren't in a format that she could read. She wondered if I wouldn't mind uploading them onto a site, wherein she could easily transfer them into eBook format, then read on her Kindle. Sod that. I have the technology, I can create. Thus I did. The result is that you can now down every one of the already created eBooks in Kindle format here. Each completed folder contains eBooks as ePUB, PDF, Mobi and AZW3. If you need something else, ask and it will happen. In addition to creating Walls Came Tumbling Down from scratch, I've uploaded Watari Pt 1 and Pt 2 - amalgamated into a single volume. That's the one I've been on and off working towards proof-reading all this time. It's in there with typos and all. You were going to get The Mello Code and Annals 1 too, but I had a bad migraine. I'm looking to get those created and uploaded over the next couple of days. Then you'll have the entire set. I've linked each where you'll eventually find them. Incidentally, I've joined her site too. I'll upload the novels on Archive of Our Own sometime over the next week. Enjoy! | Download Matti's Walls Came Tumbling Down as a free eBook here. |

Hello everybody! Mistress 9 from MB here. If you knew me from ffnet, then I used to write under the name Miharu is Haruka's Love Child. I think I have that name on AdFan too, but I've long since forgot my log in details from there. Oops? XD I wasn't around when MB went down for the count and as for my ffnet account? It got compromised and all my stories were wiped so I had to start fresh, like a phoenix from the ashes. The old account is still there but it's empty. I currently write as Banen. So. My name is Madelyn Holly, aka Banen, and yes I answer to all of those IRL. I never used to give my name out, but I'm nearly 24 so I'm less paranoid now. I live in sunny southern California, just a short traffic-filled drive from Downtown LA. I'm not sure where to start so I'll go ahead and begin with my ongoing relationship with Death Note and all the things that branch from it. I was seventeen and a senior in high school when I discovered Death Note. I hadn't been much of a manga reader before then, but I had a few volumes of One Piece, Rave Master, Sailor Moon, and Yu Yu Hakusho, so I knew what I was getting into when my buddy Rosa handed me a copy of Death Note volume 1 during silent reading. It was love at first light (bad pun). That was 2008. This was during the time of my life where my only online presence was a long-forgotten MySpace and a semi active MSN messenger. I was a total n00b with computers; I'm surprised I had an email! And then 2009 happened. 2009 is important for several reasons. UCLA and Japan. Mistress 9: Yaoi and UCLA
That class was amazing for all kinds of reasons, but one of the main professors who covered (never forgot his name, Yamaji Smith) had us read a selection from the God Child manga as part of the curriculum. That was when I got my introduction to yaoi. Yes, yaoi was on the curriculum. That was also the time I found out about manga scans and where to read manga online. I quickly rediscovered Death Note and my world changed. Then in November my parents surprised me with a late 18th birthday present - they sent me to Japan. MangaBullet's Mistress 9 Goes to JapanThere were many many wonderful and beautiful things about Japan. Going to the Pokemon Center, visiting Akihabara, Harajuku fashion, all the hype for the tenth anniversary of One Piece, eating real ramen for the first time, rubbing the statue of Hachiko and pretending like I was Neku from The World Ends With You DS game as I ran around all the places featured in the game, riding the subway, visiting shrines, taking pictures of Lolita and wedding ceremonies, discovering that Palette Town is a real place, going to Tokyo Disney Sea... Japan was more than I'd ever imagined it to be. Due to some magical intervention from my cousin, I was set up at the Prince Park Tower in Akebanebashi district just a floor below the penthouse suites, and I kid you not, the view from where we ate breakfast... it was nearly the same view of the Tokyo tower that Light and Takada have during one of their meetings in the manga! I was blown away. So very blown away. Best time of my life. It was in Japan that I found out what doujins were, and consequently fan-fiction in general. A Californian Death Note FanWhen I got back to California I went straight to ffnet and went straight for Death Note. I started off in LxLight but quickly moved to LxMxN stories. I might have read all the MelloxNear fics on the sight by Christmas that year. By chance one of the fics mentioned this redheaded character that I didn't remember from anime. I changed my search settings to look for stories with Matt. My mind exploded and I never went back. I began publishing my first Matt and Mello story in February of 2010. That same year, in that same class I mentioned earlier, around the time we were coving yuri after watching Ghost in the Shell, my TA Noriko asked if any of us were into fan-fiction, and more specifically, yaoi fan-fiction. I raised my hand and tried not to explode as I explained to whole class the merits of MxM. School is so awesome sometimes. But as time went by I was slowly crashing into deep depression. Dark Looking-Glass: When Mistress 9 Went Down the Rabbit Hole
A Life Reclaimed with Mello & Matt
Every morning I look at a picture that Striped Tabby sent me for winning a Halloween contest on MB one year. It reminds me of the years building up friendships around the world and how we all connected over these fictional characters and how much love we poured into making our fan works... and I want to be apart of it again. Every morning I look at that little Matt and Mello as they gaze up at the full moon under a tree and lean into each other for support and it helps. Because that is what Death Note is for me, it's my greatest help and my greatest therapy. Death Note will never let me down. Mello and Matt will always be there for me. I'll grow up and become a proper adult who pays bills and takes care of herself so that I can have time indulge in the great pleasure that is MxM. :3 So what am I up to at this very moment in time? School: Educating Mistress 9Since I was able to prove that I can do satisfactory school work again...and more importantly that I'm not suicidal anymore, I was re-admitted to UCLA back in January of this year. I'll be graduating from UCLA in 5 weeks with a BA in Spanish and Linguistics. Yay for finishing, finally! June 27 (my real birthday) is gonna be my graduation party. Anyone gonna be in the LA area? You're invited. <3 I'm currently tutoring English Language Development students at my old high school, deciding if I like the idea of being a teacher. I might try the whole substitute teacher thing. My mom wants me to join the Navy and that certainly would be awesome but I'd have to lose weight and get off my meds first. The thought of graduation is super scary because I have no idea what is gonna happen and I'm scared of the thought of being an adult. I should be looking for a job but I'm not read to grow up! Somebody take me to Neverland! Death Note Writing: Mistress 9's Fan-FictionI made a new fan-fiction account late last year on ffnet and a few months ago I started reposting all the old stuff. One of my readers from back in the day had some backups of stuff and I found some other things on the ancient desktop that my bro uses. My main titles (Tearoom, Barbie Boy, and White Chocolate) are getting make-overs and dear God do they need them. But I hate editing so I'm going a little slow at it. I'm still sticking with Death Note 99% of the time. First loves die hard. But I'm must more excited about two projects I've put the front of my writing folder! The first is already up a few chapters and it's called The Headliner. It's an AU where Mello has been rotting in jail for forty years, long-since convicted as Kira (but not in the conventional sense of Kira). But suddenly he has a chance to leave prison to go hunt down and reunite with Matt (who should have been dead). The real kicker here though is that I'm finally getting around to including a NearxMello scene in one of my fics. I had hinted to this sort of relationship at times in Tearoom and more than a handful of people told me I should try writing it because seme!Near is so off the wall bizarre to imagine. But I'm gonna do it, and keep it in character if it kills me... I just signed my own death warrant didn't I? *gulp* Buuuuuut I'm drowning in plot bunnies at the moment for a project I was just given to the green light to do! A fanfiction of Mrs-Jeevas' fanfiction! *dies* My own take on how Mello paves his way into the Mafia, but written in Matti!Canon. *devilish grin* I've never bothered to really sit down and research and get source materials for a story before, so if nothing else this will be the best researched story I have ever written... whether I actually adhere to my own research is another thing *cough* but I'm so excited I can't sleep at night. I'll be in the shower and imagining Mello doing xyz and then rush to my laptop to jot it down so I don't forget to add it later. Hook Back Up with Mistress 9Where to find me:
Contact me privately and I'm not above exchanging phone numbers. Or you could get one of those fake texting numbers that let's you text from your computer and hit me up that way. I'm terrified of phone conversations but I'm all for texting :D Texting is my favorite method of communication atm. - Madelyn <3 If you'd like to feature in Focus on a Fan, then please let me know via the contact form on this site. It would be great to know where we can find the old gang!
It's only taken me a year to get around to completing, but Death Note News now has a comprehensive selection of literature for your perusal. You'll find it in our merchandise area, under Death Note Manga and Other Books. What's surprised me about this whole endeavour are the number of Death Note books that I didn't know existed. Not to mention the reprints ninja-ed out by various publishers. Did you know that Takeshi Obata had a posh tome of artwork out? It's pages include a plethora of Death Note images, which never made it into the manga nor anime. Possibly because they look like they should be hanging in a gallery somewhere. Blanc et Noir is probably the source of all those random canon Death Note pictures that you've been seeing on-line for years, without knowing the source. Like this one - which has caused so much excitement and debate between Light and Mello fans in the past, each claiming him as their own and using it to 'prove' that their man became a shinigami: Actually, it's neither. This is Takeshi's original take on the 'rock star' look of shinigamis. You're looking at Ryuk, before he was steered into the skeletal look more familiar to us all.
While collecting together Death Note literature for our store, I was bemused to note that Amazon is now accepting some fan-made doujinshi. Also, it was oddly satisfying to learn that Beyond Birthday has finally made it onto a book cover, in the recent German translations of the Death Note novels. Though confusingly that was on L: Change the World, not Another Note. So please do go and take a look. All proceeds help towards maintaining this site. Any discoveries or items to cause comment for you?
This began as a short story to mark Mello's birthday in December 2014. I missed my deadline, so extended it to take in Christmas too. I nearly made it as well. But missing by a couple of days meant I really should include New Year's Eve. By which I meant that Orangepunch and I have practically broken our necks to get this out for you today. Hence the exhausted tone of this blog announcing it to the world.
Brooke Stardust, all our base r belong to you. Less than three.
As part of this blog, I promised to highlight those Death Note fans who scattered when MangaBullet went down. Welcome to our monthly Focus on a Fan feature! The rest of this entry is given over to, and penned by, Melmat! I've tried so hard to forget about you, to leave you and move onto something newer. But I can't- I'm in love with you! Yes Death Note, I'm talking to you. You come in here flaunting your charms in a cat and mouse game; then hit me where it hurts, your irresistible characters. Yeah, you got me good this time. I hate you! (screams) I hate you! I love you! (Inhales, then exhales slowly) Okay, all better now. But in reality, it's true. Oh, I have tried numerous times in the past few years to write for different fandoms. Ones that I adore- Attack on Titan, Free!, Kuroko no Basketball and so many more. Damn you, Death Note for holding my heart so tightly. The Battle Within I am a writer, not a cosplayer. They were done as a homage of sorts for me, because Mello has been such intricate part of my life; in ways I can't begin to explain. The pictures were taken by MihaelJKeehl and the rosary was sent to me from Poland by non other than my chaos twin, TrishKeehl. I tweaked the color to add more focus to the scar. I liked the result. It wasn't bad for a first timer. (laughs) “You got to lose, to know how to win...” This lyric reminds me of Mello. He knew who Kira was! He freaking knew! And he died proving he was right!! Oh, Mello (sighs) When I'm not in a Death Note coma as I like to call my alternate reality, I enjoy hanging out with my family, reading, watching movies and music. My favorite thing though, is concerts! I'm addicted to them. And oh my God; September 2013, I got to see HIM live. Yes, after eleven years of waiting; it finally happened! Little did I know I would get another opportunity six months later. (laughs) It was heavenly! Nowadays, I spend my time talking to my Shini (aka my MattyMatt), writing and balancing being a parent. I'm a rockstar, babyyy! I have plans on going back to school or at least taking some classes to help me further my writing. I've been working on a few fan fictions but I really want to start on my original ideas. Maybe in the next year or so? Not much else has been going on as of late. Though I can say, I am disappointed that my Shini has not moved here yet, but I guess that's life. Stuff happens! Right? Oh yeah, my kid will be going off to college in two years. I know it's still a ways off but not to me. I mean, one day she is heading off to kindergarten and the next, a sophomore in high school. Umm...wow. (shakes head) I just realized my life is not remotely interesting. I'm rather boring. (Laughs) Totally not cool. (Annoyed growl) Okay guys, I can feel my A.D.D creeping up on me as my focus on this has drifted in other directions. So with that; I will now end this, leaving you with one of my most favorite songs. Ciao! -Fin Places you can find me: * I would like to publicly apologize to MRS-Jeevas. She had approached me back in mid-May about doing this and at that point things were not going good for me in the writing department. There were more failed attempts at this than I care to count. And, for that - Madam, I am deeply sorry. * No prob! And no apologies necessary. Less than three, MelMat.
If you'd like to feature in Focus on a Fan, then please let me know via the contact form on this site. It would be great to know where we can find the old gang! It will be Samhain on October 31st, or Hallowe'en for those of you who aren't Pagans. In my It Matters series that meant strange happenings in Aberystwyth. I thought some of you may wish to indulge in some Mello, Matt and other Wammy kid scary stuff. So I jumped it ahead of the queue and turned Annals of Fear II into an eBook and PDF file. You can download them here. However, Calibre updated its software, so the old covers have disappeared and a raft of new ones are in its place. I've been back over those converted into eBooks already and inserted the new covers for them too. In case anyone wanted to keep the old ones, they're also in there. You may just have to alter the file names from 'oldcover' to simply 'cover'. I also noticed that I'd got All the Way Here written without spaces in the title, so sorted that out too. In short, here are the eBook and PDFs currently available, with the rest very slowly following:
I remember when I began writing my fan fiction, there was only one or two other stories in the Mello/Matt section on AFF. I dominated the place with my sudden output, yet still left it with the index running to barely two pages. Then ShinigamiMailJeevas kicked in. She's still there. Eight pages worth of short M/M fan fiction tales have been filled with her talented type. I thought that I'd read most of what she'd written, but it seems that I was wrong. Last night, Orangepunch referenced Dog Days in conversation with me. I blinked at her in confusion, "What?" She was shocked, "You've never read Dog Days?!" Her tone made it clear that I was the only Death Note fan in the world to have missed the boat on this one. Remedying that situation was clearly the way forward. The next twenty minutes were spent lost in a bleak world, torn asunder by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. It was one of the most refreshingly different Mello and Matt fan fiction stories that I had read in a long time. You probably read it back in 2011. If you didn't, then I strongly recommend you check it out now. (With all due warnings about adult content, this being Adult Fan Fiction and all.) It's ShinigamiMailJeevas at her best. Anyone got any other amazing Mello and Matt fan fiction which we may have missed along the way?
Currently in Britain, Orangepunch is musing over the places that she wishes to visit. "Naturally," she said, only partly joking, "I want to visit ALL of the places mentioned in your books." She's about the sixth or seventh person to ask me to either take them to such locations. I've had plenty more ask for directions, so they could ninja in a visit for themselves. Aberystwyth Tourist Board alone owes me big time. If indeed such a body exists. I got to thinking. Considering that Orangepunch is a kick-ass photographer, and we're going everywhere anyway, would there be any interest in us creating an actual It Matters Guide to Britain? We'd format it as both an eBook and in hard copy. Each location would have one of Orangepunch's picture and my blarb, plus where to find it. (Not all of them are obvious. You'd search a long time in vain for Matt's flat in Southampton. It's half way across Britain in Wednesfield.) Because we can't get a hard copy without going through a self-publishing place, there would be a cost. But we'd keep it to the absolute minimum allowed. Ditto with the eBook, but I wouldn't be AT ALL surprised if that ended up on Pirate Bay. (My last book mysteriously made it there before even being published.) There would be a fair bit of work involved doing this. Not just in the putting it together and writing it, but in listing all the places actually name-checked in the It Matters novels. The alternative for us both is just to go on fun trips, and spend time on things actually earning us a living. But we're both up for it, if there is an interest. Is there? As part of this blog, I promised to highlight those Death Note fans who scattered when MangaBullet went down. Welcome to our monthly Focus on a Fan feature! The rest of this entry is given over to, and penned by, Alexhliel! I am Alexhliel, and most of you will recognize that name from MB or Deviant Art. Otherwise I am known as ShinigamiMailJeevas. I guess that kind of confuses people, but by the time I started to make a name as Shinigami the other accounts had already been created and had my work on them. And well, I was not about to pay to change the old name. I might also have to tell you that my mind goes in about a thousand directions at once so if things seem a bit jumbled here, they probably are :D So, about me and what I have been up too. Not much to be honest. My life still revolves around “work days” and “days off” and I am still trying to move out of my state. At this point I am going to accept the fact that I either need to win the lotto or deal with being up to my eyeballs in debt—or I'm never going to leave. I don’t have much to tell about how things have been going other than that. Everything is sort of just the same as it has been. Crappy health. Still struggling with weight. And would generally be happier becoming a hermit with my Mello, MelMat, with internet access so I can buy and watch my anime online. >_> That makes my life sound so boring. While I miss the MangaBullet community, I am happy that there is at least a few small places we can gather again. I can be a bit of a lurker, mainly because I don’t do well in social situations and come across a bit cold and awkward. Though people who know me personally know I can be...a bit of a dork. Example: I sent this to my lovely Mello on Valentine's Day. Recently I have been into watching anime more than anything else. I finally finished watching Gintama after a few years of waiting for the subtitles to catch up. It is, and has remained, my favorite anime. Don't get me wrong, I love Death Note and my OTP will always be Mello/Matt. But my favorite anime is Gintama. That is an absolutely insane anime. It has comedy, samurai, aliens, slice of life, great fight scenes and is just generally awesome. I would also like to mention my second favorite anime is Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin), though the manga for that is much more involved and doesn’t have the unwanted bonus of animators trying to add more romantic undertones. The soundtrack for both are well worth buying as well. Randomly, has anyone seen the show The Walking Dead? I love zombies (not enough to, you know, meet them personally) and this show is freaking epic. Its the rare kind that gets better every season instead of backtracking. Even if you are not a fan of zombies, you will like this. Unless you cant handle a little gore...then you might not want to watch it. But this is what I have been caught up on recently when not writing. As for fanfiction, I am still very much attached to Death Note. The M's have forever engrained themselves in my brain and wont be leaving anytime soon. I am currently flopping back and forth between more than five multi-chaptered stories. Zombies, the crazy house, werewolves, Stargate crossover (I know, bad bad me with the cross over...but I'm only using the universe not the characters. Heh) and Mello as FBI. I have my plate full and cant seem to focus on just one of them to finish. On top of that my mind has been going over the ideas I have for novels I hope to get published. Including turning “Radio Nowhere”, my zombie fic, into original work at some point. So I am a bit crazed right now. Look out world, you will soon be flooded with what I call horror novels :D The only thing other than my Mello that keeps me sane during all this is.....music! It is my secret weapon when writing. A simple word or phrase can change my mood, and in turn my stories, so easily it is almost scarey. I however, can't write without it. Anyone can skip this part if you really are not into music. I will just ramble on about a few bands that have really impressed me this year by having me buy the entire album. When it comes to music I am rather picky, and even when I say I love a band generally I will only like a few songs per album. These bands I bought the entire albums, not a single song disliked. And for me that is a feat. Lacuna Coil. That bands last two albums have been pure genius. And the most recent one has spawned two multi chapter death Note fic ideas. Neither of them are warm and fluffy either. Starset— their sound is described a “cinematic rock”, and I guess it is. The way the music melds with their vocals really just make me want to close my eyes and feel the songs. Not quite sure what I want to write to them just yet but it wont be anything fluffy. One last band I have to praise is Digital Daggers. They did a “reimaginations” EP, which was basically a cover EP of older and well known songs. On it was “Aquarius”. You know the original, “Age of Aquarius” by The 5th Dimension? I rather dislike the original, and was about to skip over it, but I love digital Daggers so I gave it a shot. I am so glad I did. The melody is hauntingly beautiful. This song spawned a rather unique Death Note idea-but that is all I will say at this time. Well now all of that is out of the way, I guess it is time to close this. It's been fun :) I mainly reside on my Fanfiction.net account “ShinigamiMailJeevas” but should something happen to that I also have an account of the same name on Archive of our Own. I am just too lazy to deal with HTML codes to update....

As promised, I'm slowly working through all of my novels and transforming them into eBooks to be downloaded.
Today it's the turn of the fourth in the series - Poisoned Rationality. The free digital version(s) may be accessed from my MediaFire folder. Currently I have ePub and PDF formats in there. However, if it was merely a case of reformatting this story, as I have with all of the others so far, you would have been able to access it yesterday afternoon. I've gone a little bit further with this one. Basically, I've remastered the whole thing. I began last night, then devoted the entire of today to it too. I didn't quite mean to do so, but things happen. I've read the story from start to finish, then tinkered with the wording. Insofar as I could find them, all typos are now gone, and all of the flashbacks, letters and EHC forum chats are properly formatted. Then I edited the novel. Part of me is cringing slightly in guilt at this. I know that readers haven't reacted well in the past to me suggesting that certain It Matters novels could do with a rewrite. I understand that there are those of you who can quote whole sections back to me, and who have read and re-read every tale a humbling amount of times. You don't want me to alter a single syllable. You even love the spelling mistakes. But well, perfection. I'm not saying that Poisoned Rationality is now perfect. No novel can ever be that (unless it's Wuthering Heights obviously). However, there are some chapters that have now been quite heavily reworded, and others which have received merely the lightest spit and polish. The story itself hasn't fundamentally changed, but bits of the presentation gleam a little harder. An emphasis might have shifted here and there (quite a lot of there in some places), so it might read like a slightly different novel. I suppose that I should have given you all a choice - made an eBook of the original before I started tatting with it. But I didn't know that I'd eventually end up with over twenty-four hours of rewritten material. The original remains in the website library and on AFF too. In addition, I've gone through the Poisoned Rationality section of the website. I've fixed all of the links; removed the dead ones; embedded new iframes where the originals had died; added in a store; and created a YouTube playlist to replace the old defunct one. I hope you like the remastered version (and the die-hards aren't already writing my name in their black notebooks for doing it). Let me know what you think.

I've been a busy girl! It's only taken me about two years to get there, but I've finally made some much needed repairs to the He Moves Me Differently website.
For those coming here solely for the Death Note news, this pertains to fan-fiction. You're all best to skip this blog entry entirely, and label both that site and the link opposite with a firm 'Here There Be Dragons'. For the rest of you, let's start there. As promised to Gina most recently, and many, many others over the years, I'm slowly converting my novels into eBooks. As they were all originally written in text files, this is a bit of a convoluted process. I first have to take each of the chapters and combine them into one big one, via a command prompt. Then use Sigil to hunt down each chapter and reinstate them. Bung in a few titles, then open Calibre to convert them into other formats. That took Hell of a lot quicker to say than it does to enact! My cunning plan is to present you ALL with original files, which may then be taken into Calibre, so you may convert them to the format of your choice. That will take you whole seconds. That's how much I love you. Current state of play is thus:
I will alert you when the situation changes, but I'm doing this between a lot of others things. In short, continents might shift in the time it'll take me to finish. But have the combined file for any of these, if anyone else wants a go. *hope above expectation*
I'm not seriously anticipating anyone rushing to do that. But perhaps some of the Matt-types out there may take pity. In which case, I've provided the combined files and instructions. Much, much easier is converting the already processed ePub books into other formats. That same link also has instructions for that. You too could feel like Matt with about three seconds worth of clicking a button. I've set up a FileDrop for anyone wish to donate another format to the cause. Anyone wishing to troll it with malware should first note this: I'm a TechnoPagan dedicated to the Morrighan as Gwyar. I am Three-in-One and I am legion. I don't forgive and I don't forget. Attempt to hide your ass beneath the TOR and I'll Gwyn ap Nydd it into submission; I know ALL the ways to Hex. Especially when you're attempting to pick on mine. Bright blessings. :D
Onto the website itself. I've finally fixed that broken Amnesty International logo in the corner. It's an overflow one, but I got Bubbles to check it on a couple of systems. She says it works fine and doesn't interfere with anything else.
I've also fixed the Twitter widget, so those wanting to follow the musings of the EHC in action may do so once again. Only four months in, I've finally got round to linking up Matti's Death Note News (the site you're on), so this is now officially the blog of the It Matters series too. I'll still favour the forum for 'as it happens' type announcements though. Only really blogging about it when I've got something fairly major to put out, or a round up like this. In short - forum for 'need to know NOW' people; and blog for 'meh, I can wait'. Most of the other changes were time-consuming and fiddly, but ultimately not that visible. They were all in the background, streamlining the code in useful but not exactly up for display ways. I won't bore you with those. It was really the night of My Own Way, and a brand new addition. Which leads us nicely to this: Over the years, people have often laughingly said, 'zOMG! I wish I had THAT on a badge.' I've giggled with them, but never really crossed over into the notion that you could. I've opened a Zazzle store for the It Matters series and semi-Death Note related stuff. I am not seriously expecting anyone to actually BUY anything based on my stories, so the store is really two-fold:
This is all a lot more difficult than it sounds, as I can't use anything that's either been copyrighted or was fan-made by someone else. I'm not nicking your stuff, as that belongs to you. (Though I'd jump at the chance to use it, if anyone did want to give me permission!)
Zazzle is extremely tough on not infringing upon anyone's intellectual property, so I can't add anything which belongs to Obha, Obata, Shuieshi, Shonen or Viz. I have to be creative in my own right. Hence I've made you things, which you may customize into your own Letter. For example, I've used the letter L on a white jigsaw. Custom Old English Font Letter (e.g. L for Letter) Puzzle by TheWriteWord Look at other Old english font Puzzles at zazzle.com Purely randomly, you understand. After all, it could have been an M, MM or I:
Beyond all of this, it was mainly focusing on the section about My Own Way, which is now cleared of dead links - each replaced with live ones - at least on the main part. There are some deep inside which I still have to fix. And I also reinstated the play-list, which was dead. I've recreated it via YouTube and plonked it in that way. tl;dr - Enjoy the free stuff; big errors on the website fixed; do loads of ebook work on my behalf pl0x; and buy random crap. Thanks! Recently Gina asked if it was possible to read my fan-fiction in PDF format. I promised to see what I could do. I've finally got round to actually doing it. There are only two novels available so far (ePub and PDF), but that does allow for other formats too. For more details about this, I'm going to direct you over to the He Moves Me Differently website, where all of the instructions for download and/or conversion are laid out. Enjoy! PS If there are any volunteers to help me prepare the other eight novels, I would be THRILLED to hear from you. <3 |
