The Evil Within is the title of the only novel I have ever finished writing. It sucks. The plot is extremely basic and there are absolutely no subplots. WHY DO I STILL LOVE YOU

I read a book wherein there was a graffiti artist called Shdw. I used to live near a haunted building. Ta-da.

Um my username always used to be Saphira but I wanted to change. I was working on my maths and saw "axe" which I somehow read "Aux" so I put them together and got Auxira. Found that I couldn't put it on some site so I put in two i's.

Because I'm a lady and my favorite color is purple of course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I remember this wasn't the username I wanted. The one I wanted was taken. I'd tell you what I wanted but can't remember what it was.
You're new? Great seas! Why haven't you gone to the Buddy System yet?

Stella Beam was the me in a story I wrote about my friend and I. Her name was Luna Ray. I was supposed to be the "sun" as stella means "star" and "luna" the moon. This was a direct reflection on our personalities I tend to be happy,optimistic and bubbly (while also having a HOT temper) My nickname stuck and now I love it.

Mine is karribou because some people call me that in real life. That's because my name sounds like it too! Also, it has two r's because on Deviant art, karibou was taken. Kariboo was taken. Karibuu was taken. All of them were taken!

Well, my username is ArcticMonkey, because my favourite band are Arctic Monkeys. Pretty straight forward, huh? (If you listen to arctic monkeys, we need to be friends, and if you don't... well you should- they're great!)

I've had two previous usernames which were 'Inbetweener' because at the time I really liked the tv show, 'the Inbetweeners'. And when I first joined the site, my username was 'tam_ara', pretty straght forward again, Tamara is my real name :P

I'm called WartyFingleBlaster because I watched a cartoon as a child where a character would have his name changed to something silly every episode.

WartyFingleBlaster is how I remember one of his names and I also remember laughing hysterically when a scientist burst out into laughter and said "What is a fingle, and why would it be warty". The 'blaster' part may have been added by me randomly or because of some reason I can't remember.
The best part of writing is that you don't have to get it right the first time, unlike, say, a brain surgeon.

littleauthor because I'm 13 and I really want to be an author when i grow up. So 13 is little, and author is well author. I was going to be UnAuthorized (I don't know why I wasn't this in the first place) but I was pretty sure it was already taken. On other cites I've been Sydnana_harris, YODO, and Rawful_stawmp. Sydnana_harris because my mom calls me Sydnana (my name is Sydney) and my last name is Harris. YODO because I'm a loser :P. And rawful_stawmp because it was the first 2 words that popped into my head. Weird huh?

My username is really close to my real name. Fox is actually part of my true name and Jade is one of my many numerous nicknames. Combine to two and... wallah!

Mine is Japanese. kei=firefly, ha=leaves. A firefly in the leaves.

It comes from my name in English, which becomes Keito in Japanese. I tweaked it to Keiha because it sounds more delicate, and the "-ha" part comes from my favorite line of geisha: their names all share the same "-ha" character for leaf. Kotoha, Mayuha, Tamaha, Yasuha, Tsuruha, etc etc.

So yeah, just an overwhelming amount of nerdiness :/

I created this username back in high school. The reason why this is my username is that I'm usually a silent person, and when I do speak, it often sounds like I'm only whispering... so yeah.

Anyway, I used 'Whisperer' as the last name of the main character of the first novel I tried to write. lol His name was Rouie Whisperer, which is my (not-so-used) pen name right now. Rouie (Ruii), practically is the Japanese pronunciation of my second name Louis, and I started being a fan of the Japanese language back when I created this alternate name. I gave the character the name 'Rouie Whisperer' because I identified myself with him. :)

*I've never had any username changes. xD
