I used to write original stuff, but for a while now I've just been writing fanfic. I had a LiveJournal account where I used to post my accompanying illos (it's still in my siggy line) but that site seems more like DeadJournal these days, with rumors of its shutting down.

Lately I've just been posting to fanfic-net; all of my stories so far are Yuu Yuu Hakusho and I guess the real-world rating would be PG-13 for action/fight-style violence, though I try to concentrate on humor and character interaction. My latest, Operation Rosary, is kind of a secret-agent style adventure.

An excerpt:

Get out!" Hiei commanded, turning his head, seeking Issei, but that moment of distraction cost him dearly. The big brown oni swung its thorny club, connected a solid blow that took Hiei amidships.

Hiei flew back, slamming into the minotaur. "Gotcha!" it crowed. Holding fast, its bovine mouth trickling blood from Hiei's previous attacks, it growled, "I owe you for that. Who else wants in on the fun?"

Everyone.

The creatures poured themselves onto Hiei. Appalled, Issei waded in, fists flying. Hiei landed a solid kick to the cyclops, sent it reeling back. Issei struck, connected. The cyclops felt like a sack of wet cement; it not only stank like a dog, it howled like one.

"Oh, no, you don't," said the suit, and Four-Arms responded. He released two of his arms from Hiei, pinning Issei with a power that felt like the crushing coils of a big python.

He lashed out with one foot, overbalanced, fell, scrambled upright again in spite of Four-Arms and his grip. Maybe this wasn't such a one-sided battle. If Hiei could manage to---

But the sheer number of foes overwhelmed Hiei at last. With Four-Arms holding Hiei and Issei both, the others systematically beat Hiei unconscious.

It took an appallingly long time to do so. At last Four-Arms released Hiei to the minotaur altogether.

Face bloodied, hanging like a rag doll from the minotaur's massive hand, Hiei stopped fighting at last.

"One down," warbled the suit. His eyes sought Issei's, locked gazes. "One to go."

Laughing, the other monsters abandoned the fallen Hiei---to turn on Issei.

(To be continued---"Where are we?")

I really should change my siggy line... ^^;;

I write fanfiction as a way to improve my writing skills. That way, I don't have to worry about character development or anything like that, because all those details are already worked out! XD; I just have to keep the characters in character and write a story I made up about them. Its really helped me improve my writing over the years.

BTW, that excerpt is written very well. Quite captivating, and I'm sure if I watched/knew more about Yuu Yuu Hakusho I'd be interested in reading more.

Sure, you can post fan-fiction here, just make sure it's not too bloody/violent/crude...see the writing forum guidelines or PM a mod if you're unsure!
