Welcome to Amythest Keep! This is my little haven, my spot-of-sharing. Here, you will find little pieces of me - I cannot guarantee that things within this site will not be offensive to you, so please, if you are sensitive on issues such as sexuality, language, religion, or violence (as contained in fictional stories) consider yourself forewarned. Don't get me wrong; it's not a site for porn and cussing and rage. On the contrary, I am working to make this a place of beauty, freedom, self-expression, and growth. All I ask of my visitors is that you keep an open mind, and that you respect copyright laws: that is, I expect you not to steal my work. It is for just this reason that my best and most recent writings will not be showing up here; rough scans of my artwork are presented in the gallery.
Joy in the day and peace in the night,
~Anjuli/Sky/Ciel - Webmistress, Spiritual Seeker, Artist, Author, Dreamer
If you have questions, comments, or simply would like to drop me a note, please feel free!
Though far from complete, I am working on it. Below are the options I have managed to get up so far:
Story Page
A place of wild imaginings, thoughtful wonderings, and stories that are waiting to be told. Most of the things here are not very recent; the reason for this is that I hope to publish someday, and putting it here decreases those chances. I apologize, but I do hope you will enjoy what I do have.
Art Gallery
My art. Especially recently, it has become a very central part of my creative output; I spend more time drawing than writing or reading, even. That's saying something. It is difficult to define the style I use; there is a definite anime influence, for all that I am not very familiar with anime personally... I have taken inspiration from things like ElfQuest, the drawings of Larry Dixon and Jodi A. Lee, the art of my brother, soulsister, and friends, and a hundred other sources.
Lyrics & Poetry
Song lyrics and poems I have written, or written with friends. Granted, you can't hear the melodies, but you can read the words; perhaps you'll be inspired.
Character Profiles
A place to find and familiarize yourself with some of my numerous characters, both those featured in stories, and those only used in roleplay. This section is still rather lacking; I'm working on it, but it's slow.
Updates
A place to check on the progress of the site in general, and to find out what's been added when, if you don't feel like exploring the whole mess all over again. Of course, I have to remember to update the updates page, but I do try.
Links
Pathways to some of the special places I've discovered in my own journeyings through the web... and wow, some of them are amazing.
