Secre-Wary?

Hey, it's me, Wary/Ein, and I'm looking for this secretary position. My "official" name is Smashlord Kratos. (And ironically here, I hate bad puns.)1

"Tell me a bit about yourself. I don't know, favorite color, favorite food, what you like to do... Whatever. You know."2

Well, my favorite color changes these days, though it didn't before. My very first favorite color was blue, but somewhere way back I changed it to green. A year or so ago I changed it to brown, and after that I changed it back, but it's currently red because I've found that my inner element is fire.3

My favorite food? Pie. Rhubarb pie. Ever had rhubarb pie? Delicious. Rhubarb itself is a very mysterious sort of fruit. I wonder why I've never heard of just eating rhubarb even though it's so great in pie!4

Now, this summer I spent a lot of my spare time playing video games. However, now that I don't have as much, the little that remains is spent right here on Storywrite or elsewhere on the Internet. Besides writing, I work on lots of YouTube videos (which are linked on my page if you'd like to see them) and am also working on a PC video game. That said, I'd say at least half of my time spent on the internet is using Storywrite.5

"Tell me the kind of stories you like to write, or poetry, or songs... Or whatever you write. Just give me an idea of what you like to write. I'm just curious." 6

My main work has to do with epic war fantasy (isn't that a mouthful) that works in an anime-related style--that is, trading all kinds of realism for all kinds of "cool" characters and scenes. More recently I've looked into things such as romance and poetry, as well as a small series in the category of, you know, looking into the brain of a crazy person. Which doesn't have its own genre name yet.7

"List a few of your favorite authors and books. Again, just curious."8

I don't have favorites, since there's not much reason to reread things much. Although I did really like the Lord of the Rings series, including The Hobbit and The Silmarillion. Recent ones I liked included Dragon Knight, The Black Tattoo, and The Extraordinary Adventures of Alfred Kropp. Yes, I'm all over the page.9

"Tell me why you think you would make a good secretary.10

Give me 5 reasons I should pick you, in other words. At least 5, that is, preferably more."11

1. I spend so much time on here anyway, there's no reason I can't check back every so often. As often as YOU want me to.12

2. I've had the idea of keeping a log of any important thing you might get in your notes or messages. When you get back I could send you the log in just a few messages. That way you don't have to worry about me forgetting anything.13

3. If you DON'T like any of my ideas or something, I'm completely open to every suggestion anyone here gives me. Any suggestion that you approve, that is.14

4. You don't have to worry about me doing something stupid. My convictions are strong and I pounce on anything that seems unjust. I'm very reliable and don't give up on friends unless they push me away first.15

5. My resourcefulness can get me through just about anything, although I don't see too much challenge in this position honestly. No hard feelings if you don't pick me.16

By the way, every few days or so (at least recently) I have a different "personal theme song," and I thought I'd link you to an MP3 of my current one: It Doesn't Matter - Crush 40.17

One last thing. You said this was like a resume. Well, a resume often involves getting a "referral" or "past experience", and in case you're still having trouble judging, (this must be a hard decision, you poor, poor person) you can ask Bree on here about how trustworthy I really am. If you don't know her (because I'm not quite sure, but I imagine you probably do) her current username is XDeadClownX-bree though who knows, she could change it even before you read this. I won't change mine, though, and once again, here it is:19

I'm Smashlord Kratos and I approve this message.

    OMG, Wary. Love the last sentence for one. And reason number 2... BRILLIANT. Gosh, you people are making this impossible to judge. I'll never be able to pick the best one. *groans* Well, I pretty much loved it all. Good job, Wary, and I know you would be reliable, so, that's definitely a +++ brownie point.
    Good luck, good job, and peace out.
