Me.
Hm... Let's see...
I'm YK. Short for "YelseyKing". Without getting into any real specifics, "Yelsey" is a town I created for a story I wrote a loooong time ago, and it's become a mainstay in all my recent works. Note that I'm not its "king". I was *supposed* to be "YelseyKnight", but when I first started using this screen name, it was on an old version of AOL, which limited names to 10 letters, so I improvised. =P At any rate, "YK" gets less questions, so I've been going with that handle lately.
Ok, that was long, droning, and not terribly interesting. Forgive me. I tend to ramble like that.
Well... Hm. I guess I've been around a while. Where to begin...
Ok, well, I love video games, first and foremost. Particularly RPGs, but I'll play almost anything. Emphasis on "almost". In fact, I used to write FAQs/Walkthroughs for video games, but I quit that scene long ago when I was getting swamped with e-mail, most of which asked questions I *thought* I made the answers to abundantly clear... *sigh* I also enjoy making video games, albeit with the somewhat simplistic (though very easy to use) RPG Maker 2000, and the game I'm currently working on has been in development since 2001. The problem? It hasn't, uh, progressed very much since then. Believe me, I try. Good help is so hard to find. =P I also particularly love video game music; I have a huge collection of songs in all sorts of formats, and I'm a staff member/admin of SNESMusic.org, which is dedicated to SPCs, a file format for Super Nintendo music.
I'm also a baseball fanatic. (This doesn't, mind you, correlate with my love of video games... baseball video games tend to be... well, quite lousy, IMO. Meh.)
