Welcome to Never Enough Blotches, a personal site of Ditzuka, or really a place she finds convenient to dump her stuff. Well, don't we all have to leave at least a blotch somewhere in the vast universe? Here's mine ^_^ In this site you'll find some poetry, fanfictions, even some graphic stuff I've come around doing in the last couple of years. Maybe you can also download some web layouts in the future. Navigation is just below this text. When the mood strikes you, do leave some comments in my guestbook, you know the rules, no flame, no spam, please. Most of this site is still under construction, the links to these pages are marked with a star (*). Have fun!

Greettings from yor affectionate friend behind the screen - borrowing the line from Lewis Carroll's letter. Hi, I am reguretto,
ditzuka, dizu, or simply dz.This web site is a
long term project, I do it mostly on holidays or whenever I have a time off.
However, be sure that every thing you find here was done with love.
I don't really believe in originality. I think it's a vague concept. I am
not original, I have my mother's features, and my father's hands. My voice and
the way I talk was adapted from my friends. Are my works original? I doubt it.
It was not shaped by me alone, in there are the things I read, things I see,
beliefs forced into me, words other people said, and so on. Universal
consciousness, that I believe. Two people can have the same idea at the same time,
without having the same background or life experiences. Inspiration is out there
for anyone who looks for it, and it is for anyone to use (or abuse). In the end,
it doesn't matter who adopt it first, because the many of it enriches the
world's vocabulary (even the ones that came out mediocre).
Sometimes I wonder, how real are the people in real-people fanfictions? Of course they
have a real-live counterpart, but how far do we stretch the truth when we write a
fiction about them? In a sense, isn't it all set in an Alternate Universe? There
is the public persona (that is what we see), and there is the day-to-day persona
(that is what we try to see through the public persona). When we write based on
what we see (and what we want to see), we create a new universe within our
stories, where everything is possible and we are the puppet masters who sometimes
give our dolls a life of their own. Each doll have the person's name,
face, and character, and pre-assigned expectations on how he or she would act given a
specific situation. And if we give them a new name, the chain tying it to the real
person is broken, and bam! we have an 'original story'. But I wouldn't label all
my fanfictions as AU fics, anyway, haha!
Why do I write and read fanfictions? Interesting question. Well frankly,
because this illusory reality I'm living sucks. Through fanfictions I can watch the characters closely, trying to
understand their feelings, and when they reach an epiphany, I can be happy for
them. So maybe life is not that kind, who knows? At least I have a little
happiness that no one shall ruin for me, right in here. To those who think that
fanfics are merely substandard writings, products of stupid fangirls'
imagination, well I think it�s unwise to generalise. I�ve
seen many writers that I think should get published. Give it a shot, for
humanity!
