Author has written 47 stories for Inuyasha.

Never more than forthright.

I came to read. I stayed to write.

I ship everyone... or no one. Take your pick!

I will probably always write stories that I post without pricetags, even though I'm trying to make a living. It's like I grew up and moved away, but I still visit because fandom is my hometown. ~forthright

Fandom is where I learned the ropes of storytelling. These fics are my beginnings, and I treasure all the love and effort that went into their telling. Updates have dwindled, but not because my muses abandoned me. I still write as much as I ever did. More, even, since I have my own stories to tell. But as time allows, I'll add to the unfinished works here, patiently bringing them to their foregone conclusions. May they be worth the wait. ~forthy

OTHER FANDOMS: Every once in a while I get the urge to write for a fandom other than Inuyasha, and so I've opened a secondary account here on FanFiction.net to stash those stories. If you're interested in following any of my other ventures, you'll find them under the penname forthrightly. http://www.fanfiction.net/~forthrightly

FANART: My fanart links have been moved to my website. You're invited to explore them at ForthWrites dot com.

WEBSITE: I now have a blog. Follow along for FAQs, story news, art posts, random quotes, and the chance to chat about everything from fandom to forthcoming original stories. ForthWrites dot com. I'm also on tumblr (forthrightly), deviantART (forthrightly), twitter (ForthWrites), BookBub (Forthright), and GoodReads (Forthright.). Links to my assorted profile are on the ABOUT page of my website - ForthWrites dot com.

TRANSLATION NOTE: I'm often asked by readers if they can translate & repost my stories elsewhere. No. I will always (very politely) refuse.

COVERS: Yes, I'm in the process of adding book covers to my fanfics (on this account and over on forthrightly). Look forward to weekly updates. And you can now shelve Forthright Fanfiction over on Goodreads alongside my original fare. Spiffy!
