Ah yes, Visions of the Heart... *grins* Chances are, if you're here, at my website, it's because you've heard of this story. It's the one I'm most known for, with the possible exception of The Child Who Suffers, which can be found on my main Yu-Gi-Oh fanfic page.
This story has grown from one, to three, and now it's on the road to becoming a twelve-story set. Yup, you heard me, twelve. So far I have four done, and I'm working on the fifth. ^~ If you want an outline of the entire series, go here, my FF.N bio.
To be perfectly honest, I don't remember where the inspiration for VotH came from. It might have been White Angel's story Mutilation, in which Bakura actually installs the Millenium Eye into Ryou, leaving him, of course, without an eye on one side. I guess that story just sunk into me, and I began thinking about what would happen if Bakura, either by accident or on purpose, completely blinded poor Ryou.
And, of course, VotH and its sequels were the result. Happy reading! ^-~
The story that started it all. A beating from Bakura leaves Ryou blind, and at the worst possible time, too. The Shadow Realm is looking for a pure heart to be sacrificed, and Ryou seems the perfect candidate... Will Bakura save his hikari? Does he even want to? And what's with this demon who claims to be Bakura's twin brother?

ASN was inspired when KidsWB showed Evil Spirit of the Ring on Halloween. It just sorta made me think that maybe it actually was Halloween that night, and Yugi & crew were just too psyched up to remember. I wanted to work the idea into one of my stories somewhere, but I never thought it would come out anything like ASN.

Hm... I think the idea for SoS came to me when I realized that I couldn't just leave VotH where it had been. What happens next? Well, the Locking Rituals haven't been completed, so logically the Shadow Realm would look for another pure heart for sacrifice... The title however, Sacrifice of Shadows, seems to be an oxymoron. They need a pure heart, right? Not one filled with shadows. The reason for the title becomes clear in the last few chapters. ^_~

The Yamis of Tokyo U is my four-story set which takes place three years after VotH, ASN, and SoS. Everyone's eighteen and nineteen now, and are headed off to college at Tokyo U. But of course, as the trilogy's theme says, where Ryou goes, the Shadow Realm follows...

The Falcon is a story I actually wrote for my good friend High Crystal Guardian's fanfiction contest. I wasn't planning for it to fit in anywhere with Tales of the Child of Fate, but it did. It's a crossover between my Tales and HCG's stories Shadow Turned Light and Negative Chaos, and you might understand The Falcon better if you read those first.
Summery: The Realms are out of balance again. It's up to Kaze, Kawari, Kaeru, and the NR Otogi, Damon, to travel to Fate's Realm and restore the balance with the help of Ryou, Yuugi, Malik, and their yamis. But in the end, it's the falcon who saves them all. {One-shot, complete}
Yu-Gi-Oh and all its characters belong to Kasuki Takahashi. However, Jonathon, Gwen, Hiro, Scott, and other OCs, as well as the idea of Ryou being a telepath and the "elements" of the Millenium Items do belong to me. I'll most probably let you use them in your stories, as long as you drop me a line to ask permission first. ^_~
