Everything originally comes from time and then returns back to it again. Such is the way of the universe...

December 27, 2003

I put up several new pictures including villains for SME and SMNF.  Most of my efforts for the evening were separating the solar galleries.  *wipes sweat off brow*  That was a lot of work, but worth it, I think.  The Elysion galleries should be separated next, but I don't have enough pictures for that just yet.  Expect some NF fanfiction and a new wallpaper soon.

December 23, 2003

Lots of new pictures up everywhere and several new awards.  Yay!  There's a new Hidenka picture, several of the Elysion girls, one of Kashoku and of Tsute, many of the From Beyond senshi, and a couple of the first senshi.  Check them all out.  I also put up some new requests.  Bengosha won Sailor Wars, so thanks for all the support and Happy Holidays to all!

December 15, 2003

We passed 20,000 hits since our last update.  Yay for the Tower!  We have our winner and prizes are being taken care of.  I uploaded several new pictures here and there and (finally) Solar Wars episode 14.  The formatting was giving me some trouble so it might look a little different than the others.  I plan to have SW 15 written by the end of January so all you last minute Solar Celebration entrants, get going on your stuff.  Sailor Blue Sun won her second round in Sailor Wars, so cheer her on in her third and final round.  Hopefully she will make it to the Hall of Fame!  Keep sending in honorary guardian applications.  They are due on January 1.

December 5, 2003

I'm sorry folks for the long delay on updates.  Nano did keep my very busy, but I got to 50,000 words and I won!  ^_^  So now I will return to my normal otaku writing, starting with some Solar Wars, From Beyond, or NeoF.  I put up lots of new pictures, including an all-inclusive timeline for the Tower stories (in the beyond other gallery).  There are also several new requests up and requests are open yet again.  I am sad to announce that Nietzsche retired from our services as an Honorary Guardian.  To fill her place and add to our numbers, we will are currently taking applications for new editing Honorary Guardians.  Check out the rules in the requests section of the Tower to see if you qualify and send in samples!  The new monthly wallpaper is also up and cool, so take a look at that and vote for next month's.  We are about to reach 20,000 hits now, so if you are the lucky person to get that hit, save the counter and send it in for a prize.  NO RELOADING!  If we see that you do that, you will not receive the prizes.  Also, Blue Sun won her first round in Sailor Wars, so be sure to vote for her in this round now and push her on to the third and final round for her.  Also, the Solar Wars WAVS project is moving a little slowly and lacking cast members.  Main character roles are still available.  Anyone interested in being a writer for the new Tower Times should email me with an article idea or the article itself.  I may or may not be able to pull it off this month.

November 2, 2003

Geeze, it's sure been a long time since I updated.  I put up lots of pictures everywhere, so look out for those.  Also, Elysion part 6 is finally done and up.  Go check that out.  I'm excited to announce that I am participating in nanowrimo.org this month, so there will be no new stories in November unless I finish my novel early.  I will try to have SW completed by the end of the year, so I'll get going on that as soon as I get done.

October 4, 2003

At last!  I finished up a chapter of The First Senshi.  This means I'm about half way through that series.  If you like Tower fanfiction, read that set of stories.  They outline the Tower of Time universe and how things work.  *nods*  There are also a heap of new pictures up.  Several in the beyond galleries, several sun pictures, several neos, and two seasons.  Requests are still closed people!  Stop trying to request from us!  We guardians are getting tired of it.  *nods*  On a lighter note, very soon, the Tower will be putting out its first ever newsletter: The Tower Times.  (bad pun, I know)  If you are interested in being a columnist for it or helping out in any way, please come over to the forums and check it out.  Don't expect huge updates next week.  Next Friday is my birthday after all.  *grins*

September 20, 2003

I apologize that I do not yet have a weekly story done yet.  I don't think I can promise weekly stories until I get into the rhythm of school more and get used to my exchange student.  *nods*  Today I did lots of house-keeping.  (Took me several hours).  I revised the requesting rules, put up a couple new requests, fixed the webrings page, joined Otaku Advisory, tried to join 1.800.Otaku.Senshi, and put up all the guardian profiles except Dark Saturn's, whose I lost. ^_^''  Nothing huge.

September 12, 2003

I finished up SW 13 and it is now up for the reading.  ^^  I also put up a request by Shuu.  Not much of an update.  A note about the Solar Wars VA project: S-chan says it's okay to send in auditions even though she doesn't have the form up yet.  Just pick out a quote you like and send it in. Mp3 format or zipped is preferred. *grins*

~Song of Amazon~

September 9, 2003

So here we have and update and a 'new' story.  The story of the week is part 1 of SW rewritten to be much better, as it was rather badly written to begin with.  I need to wrap up the very end of SW 13 still, so that should be up by the end of this weekend.  There's new requests up, loads of new pictures scattered around (Chou, Apollos, Bengosha, Void).  Also, the Tower's web space just about tripled in size due to a great sale at my host, so we're trying to figure out what fun things to do with the extra space.  If anyone has any ideas, just let us know!

August 21, 2003

I apologize for not having any stories done yet.  I still have one written that needs to be typed.  Life is crazy here as school is drawing closer, but I should be able get back on the weekly episode once school starts.  I've been putting up requests and pictures regularly but have been too lazy to write updates about them.  I forget where most of the new pictures are, so poke around for them if you're curious.  ^^''  I also added a new contest with a very different style.  This is a large quiz that you have to answer for nice prizes.  It requires no talent or imagination, so it's very different than anything we've had before.  Go to the Tower forums and take a look at it.  ^_^

August 1, 2003

August already?  I actually put the wallpaper up on time this month.  ^_^''  I'm sure it wasn't what you expected though.  ^^  I ran out of time to do a blood line one as usual.  I'll have to type up SW 13 when I get back from (yes another one) camp in two weeks.  It's Japanese camp, so this should help SoA in her fanfictions and with her fan-dancing.  *grins*  I have new pictures up in SR misc, Neo groups, Elysion trio, both guardians galleries, and on in the Metallic Suns gallery.  Also, S-chan has volunteered to start a VA radio project for SW as it is growing near completion.  If you want to check it out and start preparing your auditions it can be found here.  If you want to discuss it, come and join us at the tower forums.  That's all for now!

July 28, 2003

Well, I've returned and the Tower is back to it's regular updates.  I spent today fixing the requests page to look much nicer.  I've got SW 13 and several revised profiles on the way.  I also put up a new picture of the Sun Color Senshi and one of Sailor Theta, both of which I did in my travels. ^_^

~Song of Amazon~

July 6, 2003

SoA finally got her act together and worked hard on Tower stuff.  We have a new wallpaper, a new picture in SoA's pics, a new Neo Venus picture, a whole load of new requests, a new chapter of From Beyond (found in the Beyond Library), and a new honorary guardian!  Welcome to Kashoku!  She's really great so go and request from her!

~Song of Amazon~

June 13, 2003

Well, I've not been doing too much other than uploading more requests here and there.  Though, part 12 of SW is up now!  This means the deadline for the Solar Celebration contest is coming closer.  ^_^  Only 3 more parts left!  So go and enter. 

~Song of Amazon~

June 8, 2003

I don't believe it!  Two major updates in one weekend!  I don't know how long it's been since that happened.  So the long-awaited Elysion 5 is finally finished.  Go and discuss it in the brand new forums.  They're now hosted on the tower, so no more annoying pop-ups.  You know you want to join!  There is also a new contest, called Solar Celebrations.  It is celebrating the completion of Solar Wars.  (Imagine that!  Creative title, ne?)  Also, there's a whole boot-load of new requests up.  There's one new picture of the primary suns in the Solar group gallery.  Also, I finally finished up the picture of Autumn's henshin pen, so you can see that with her symbol on it (you've never see it before ^_^'') in her gallery.  Lastly, there's two pictures of some parody Elemental Senshi in the Beyond other pictures gallery.

~Song of Amazon~

June 6, 2003

Well, school is over for Praesentia and I so you will be seeing more updates.  I've started on the next part of Elysion, so look for that within the next week.  I put up one group Neo picture, one neo villain picture, and one of Oloddumare.  Also, the new wallpaper is up and there are several new requests.
~Song of Amazon~

May 27, 2003

This is the time of year where life gets crazy for SoA.  ^_^''  There probably won't be any stories until school is out in the first week of June.  I've got sooo much to do!  Well, we would love to welcome our two newest request artist: Joshin and Lilli!  Lilli doesn't have anything done yet, but you can see some of Joshin's work already in the request page.  There are a couple new requests up for other people too.  For those that didn't get sprites yet from Lady Buruma, don't worry, they're coming!  ^_^  I also added a couple other pictures: Korai, Asatsuyu, two of SoA, and one of Bronze Sun.  Be sure to check those out.  Lastly, I added two more links to the 'Your Links' section, so go check those out too.

May 16, 2003

Well, I'm afraid that I don't have much to report this week.  I'm busy with a large project so I haven't finished the chapter of Elysion that I was planning on, so look for that next week.  I added a couple new requests, one new picture of Sailor Eleggua, and two of Webmistress SoA.  There is also a brand new tutorial on how to edit pictures in MS Paint up in the requests section, and the Photoshop shading and the sprite sections are coming up soon.  ^_^  I also remembered to change the monthly background icon this week.  The wallpaper has been up for a week, but I forgot about the thumbnail.  Heh heh heh...  Votes are coming in for who the next honorary guardians will be and we will hopefully be able to revile them by next weekend, so stay posted.

May 10, 2003

Sorry for no update last week.  I had two AP tests this week so I spent my entire time studying for them.  ^_^''  But no more AP, so look for more frequent updates now.  We have several new requests up now.  I also was bored in math recently, so I finished up the graph paper seasons series.  There's a new picture for Imahodo, Hyakka, Hayaru, and Mokuhi.  Also, there's one of Tsute in the Solar galleries.  The episode of the week is Solar Wars 11.  Come and discuss it and other things in the Tower forums.   I'm really shocked that it's so far already.  Only four more parts to go, and I really should fix part one. ^_^  Enjoy!

April 27, 2003

Well, I was actually on time this time.  ^^  There is now a brand new episode of Seasonal Revolutions and only a couple new pieces of art.  There's a lovely fanart of Red Sun and a CG of Black Sun and White Sun that I've been working on for quite some time.  I also got bored and did sprites for Prae and Tear Drop that they didn't have done, so there's no missing sprites any more.  Lady Buruma, Dark Saturn, and myself have a few new requests up as well.  We are still taking applications for honoraries, so feel free to put in an application.  Also, I changed the requesting rules slightly so you may want to look at those as well.

~Song of Amazon~

April 20, 2003

I apologize as there is no new chapter of fanfiction this week.  I have fairly bad writers' block and can't squeeze anything decently written past it.  ^_^''  It's not been this bad for a while.  By next weekend, it should be lifted.  I also added several new pictures at the Tower.  There is one for each of the Season Senshi, one for Chibi, one in the Neo group pictures and one of Sailor Sunlight.  Also, I experimented with cell style shading this week on the original Sailor Spring picture.  Go stare in awe at it!  SoA can shade this way now.  *grins*  

On the note of requests, two new ones went up this week.  The forum is working once again, so you can request the normal way.  I took Tear Drop and Prae off the list of requestable guardians as Prae is bogged down with old requests and Tear Drop is, sadly, resigning.  We shall miss you dearly Julee-pi!  Along with that, we are now taking applications for new honorary guardians for requests to fill the gaping hole she left.  Please look over the rules at http://www.toweroftime.com/requests/apply.htm if you are interested.

April 12, 2003

Once again, I'm very sorry for not updating last week.  I spent the last two weeks laboring over NeoF 6 and it turned out amazingly at 11 pages.  The length would be why it took me so long.  So go read it!  ^_^  I put up a couple pictures last week that I forgot to mention.  This week, there are several in the Solar galleries and one or two in the Neo galleries.  There are now voice actors for Neo Venus and Orca Eye.  With the help of some wonderful people at the boards, I'm getting plot ideas for the Past & Future series.   If you want to help out in creating characters, stop by the general chat in the forums and join in the fun.  ^_^  I also have been nominated for the Bunny Awards for both SW and NeoF.  I huge thanks and a hug to whoever nominated me!  Also, the problem with the requests should be fixed soon, but still keep using email for now. There are several new requests up as the guardians and honoraries are enthusiastic to get going.  Prae has started a small site for her comics called Eggplant that are based loosely on actual events.  I highly recommend checking it out.  A link to it is on the index page.

March 28, 2003

I apologize for the long absence.  I had a nice spring break and drew and wrote some while I was there.  The story of the week is The First Senshi, part 2.  This particular short series will fill in a lot of details that my fanfiction is built off of.  There are also some new pictures around.  They are of Yellow Sun, Blue Sun, Lapis & Lazuli (Neo Villains), and Oya.  The request forum is now open, however, it seems to be having some difficulties.  If you can get it to work, feel free to request a picture.  Meanwhile, I will try my best to fix the problem.  I also spent some time today working on the new WarRiders site.  I made some good progress on it, but it's far from finished.

March 2, 2003

I'm afraid there wasn't much from me this week.  I put up a prologue in the Beyond section for the Elementals mini-story.  I really wanted to write the second part to the Mahou-Henshin story, but I just ran out of time.  *cries*  Anyway, I also put up the wallpaper of the month.  It's a very nice one, I think.  I joined a Sera Myu fanlisting also.  *points to little piccy of Nao-sama on the splash page*  There's also two new requests from Tear Drop and four new pictures scattered around the site.  One for Norikuken, one for Musha, one for Tacita, and one of Ami and Bengosh (in the group section).  ^_^  I got a wonderful audition for Tonda this week and I need to turn the quote into an MP3, then you can all listen to her voice.  ^_^  That should come by next week.  Also, I got an award from Caloris-kun for one of my fanfiction stories.  Yay!  *happy dance*

February 26, 2003

Well there is now a much better picture up on the index page for the Zodiac section which I am a bit proud of cause it's pretty cool. Speaking of which, I'm almost done with the third episode so expect that soon!

But now the BIG news. I've been putting together a new section at the tower for my Sailor Void fic. As of right now it can only be reached from the main page by clicking on the link on the bottom row of links (where the rest of the fan fiction sections are). It is not completely finished yet though, I need to put up some profiles and a soundtrack page, and put up some links in various places, but check it out so far! It's pretty cool.

February 23, 2003

Well, SW 10 is up now as well as several new pictures in the Neo galleries and one in the Seasons group gallery.  There's two new requests, including one from Annie Jessan, as she was bored one day and we were having trouble with that one request.  Anyway, enjoy!

February 19, 2003

It has come to my attention that I am going to kill dreamweaver very soon. It does not agree at all with frontpage and makes edit pages a tedious and sometimes IMPOSSIBLE task. Despite all this, I have still managed to update the soundtracks page fort he guardians and put up a couple new pictures in the Praesentia Sprit gallery. One of them is a very cool one of Praesentia Tigris, whom most of you are not familiar with. Go look.

February 16, 2003

I only did a couple things today.  There's a few new pictures in the request page and a few pictures in the galleries here and there.  Two in Hidenka's, one for Teisei, and one of Oornahfthae.  Also, I finally wrote part 3 of SR, so go and read that and give some feedback at the forums.  I also added some more info to the Seasons profiles.  ^_^

February 9, 2003

I had to fix a couple things in various galleries and I added the wallpaper of the month.  Also, I finally remembered to put Lady Buruma's and Tear Drop's emails in the contact section.  Don't worry you two!  I still love you!  ^_^  Don't forget to vote for Blue Sun in the otaku senshi contest and get your friends to vote too.  It's a close race and every vote counts!

February 8, 2003

Well, I'm sorry I missed last week's update.  My entire weekend was taken up by Drumline competitions.  ^_^''  So you have lots of pictures: several in Neo, a couple in Solar, and a couple in Zodiac.  The story of the week is NeoF 5.  I found the missing pieces on a disk when I was cleaning it off.  Hooray!  Still, it wound up at 10 pages long.  ^_^''  There's several new requests... but only a couple sprites to go with.  I have the to of mine, but they're not on this compy.  I'll get them up next week.  Enjoy all the new stuff!

~Song of Amazon~

January 25, 2003

Well, I've forgotten to update the last couple times, but there have been additions to several galleries and to the requests page.  Today I did a lot of stuff.  ^_^  I added several pictures to the Neo galleries, including my first real CG (it's of sad Asatsuyu) and a group picture by the amazing Luna Star Sphere.  Also there's a great picture of the Sahara Trio in the Elysion group pictures that I am supremely proud of (yes, I know it's not a group, but I don't want to make a gallery for it all by itself).  Along those lines, I added both episodes 3 and 4 of Sailor Moon Elysion.  Go and check those out!  I also finally finished the personality quiz for the seasons senshi and fixed some problems on the requested page.  The other guardians and I are in the process of rewriting the requesting rules, so be sure to read those over carefully before you request a picture (request are currently down).

SoA-pi has a preposition: It is my goal to write one episode a week with each weekly update.  Feel free to bug me about it if I'm not keeping up.  Regarding the weekly updates, I am doing this to conserve uses of Front Page (my editing program).  I think I will only be able to use it about 40 more times because I do not believe they will allow me to register it again on this new computer and I don't want to buy another copy just yet.  Prae also does not currently have a web editing program so that stops all updates from her right now.  Anyway, enough babbling.  Oh, by the way, Prae and I love fanart.  Hint, hint.  *evil grin*  No really, we do.  ^_^  WarRiders RPG is restarting very nicely, so go ahead and join at the new boards.  We love new members!

~Song of Amazon~

January 10, 2003

Okay, so it isn't 2002 any more.  I'm just going to condense the updates into one page pretty soon, so I'll just keep to this page now.  I put up a couple new requests, many new pictures with some in almost all of the areas (be sure to look at the new misc pic in SR), the results for the contest, the first chapter in Void, the next chapter in Solar Wars, and the monthly background.  Geeze I've been busy!  Anyway, I think I'm pretty accomplished for now.

~Song of Amazon~

Later... Wow!  Two updates in one day.  *grins*  I finally added music clips in the sound tracks... unfortunately I lost most of my English songs so the Elysion sound track is rather lacking now.  I've also got all the VA clips up that I have... I think I'm missing a couple, so check and see if yours is there if you're a VA.  Everyone else, feel free to audition to be a VA.  Just find a quote out of the stories by your desired character and record it, then send it over to us.
