09.29.07 I suppose that this site is on semi-hiatus now that I have so little time to update, but I am happy to say that I have many lovely new wallpapers submitted to me by Palmona and Jamie Miller. Please go check out their lovely work! Also, since I am a Star Wars fan and a Music Education major, I thought that I would share this great article on a Star Wars themed elementary music class (you have to scroll down quite a ways to read it once you get to the page). And I will finish One Act 6 one of these days...really, I will...
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
03.10.07 Here is the brief new installment of One Act 6 (you'll have to scroll down on the linked page); since I am on Spring Break, more should come soon.
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
03.09.07 Okay, I'm behind with my next installment, but I do have a new page for fan-made videos and I have one up so far. Please feel free to send some more.
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
01.21.07 True to my word, I have made another installement to One Act 6 before the end of this month! Please send me some feedback!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
01.01.07 Happy New Year to all fellow SW fans!!!! To celebrate the new year, I have added another installment to One Act 6. Remember that I love feedback, whether in my guestbook, or via e-mail.
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
12.01.06 School is keeping me so busy; I apologize! But I do have one new wallpaper up for you; thanks to Dex for submitting it! Hope everyone had a great Turkey Day, btw! Sign the guestbook on your way out please!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
7.24.06 Since Act 6 of the feature story is taking me a while, I've decided to post what I have so far to leave you a little bit of fiction before I leave for France. That's right, I'm off to Nice, so there won't be any updates for the next three weeks. But in the meantime, here is the first installment of Act 6. Enjoy, and remember that I'm still waiting for fanfic or fan art submissions or additions to the chainstory And keep on voting in the July/August poll. And if you please, leave me a message in the guestbook.
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
7.18.06 Isn't Meredith's work fantastic? It's a wonderful belated birthday gift--yes, my sincerest apologies, OAIAT turned 5 years old on July 9th! Well, my latest news is that OAIAT has a beautiful new affiliate whose site features our beloved Padme: An Angel's World. Make sure you check it out! And just a little reminder to vote in the July/August poll. ;)
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
7.17.06- Meredith here-- it's been a while since we've had a new layout 'round these parts, so I thought we'd switch things around a bit before Ruby leaves. ^_^ It's pretty white, isn't it? Hopefully it's a refreshing change. I just love the little domestic glimpses we get in ROTS, and I adore Padme's dress in these screencaps. Just lovely. Since Ruby has been flexing her creativity with wallpapers, I've added a new section just for them! Enjoy!
-Meredith
7.15.06 I will now be making monthly or bimonthly wallpapers, and I leave you with a gift before I head to Nice, France for three weeks to visit family: the jewel of the republic, July/August wallpaper. I thought this one was simple but classy, and hopefully you'll agree. I would love to get some fanfic submissions or additions to the chainstory while I am on vacation (it would be pleasant coming-home surprise), and feedback is a girl's best friend as well! And after your stay, please sign the guestbook. Carpe Diem!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
7.01.06 Auxiliadora Garc�a has submitted a fic, Shattered Plans, written from Dorme's point of view, looking back on the days of Padme's pregnancy. Go check it out! And here is wallpaper # 3! Oh, and Kudos to France for their victory over Brazil today!!!!!!! That's OT, I know, but I just can't help it...;)
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
6.30.06 I made my first Wallpaper! And then I made another one in both 1024x768 and 800x600: In addition to these links, the wallpapers can be found on my Misc page. I have a feeling more wallpapers will be on the way, because making these was fun!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
6.28.06 Finally, ladies and gents, I have a new fic up: Once Upon a Dream..., just a quick read from back in the day when Ani was an innocent little boy. Also, the July poll is up. Thanks for hanging in there between updates! I am still working on the feature story; it is a long process, but it's gettin' there! Also, I'm still accepting any fanficsubmissions, and additions to the chainstory. Don't forget to sign the guestbook before you leave!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
5.31.06 Happy summer! Yes, updates seem to come few and far between now. I haven't lost interest in Star Wars or P/A or this site; I've just been developing other interests and haven't had much free time. But I will eventually finish the One Act fic series, so all of you who have shown me support and enjoyed those fics, bear with me! Unfortunately, I don't have fics for you this time, but a June poll is up. Enjoy the existing fics and please sign the guestbook on the way out!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
3.3.06 Wow, I've gotten so behind on the updates! A new poll for March is up, but I'm still swamped with work, so no new fics. I did see that some people were expressing interest in my finishing the "One Act" series, so I will get on that soon!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
12.23.05 Merry Christmas everyone! I have a new fic up to celebrate, although the mood is not so festive in the new fic...but go check it out, it's called My Husband, the Murderer. Enjoy the holidays!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
12.02.05 Only 1 person has voted on the November poll so far, so I am going to leave it up for December. As winter break is quickly coming up, I promise to have 2 new fics up before the new year, so please keep coming back!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
11.13.05 I am so sorry for the delays; college life is just a mile a minute all the time! I haven't lost my Star Wars fevor, though; when I watched Episode III the first time after it was released on DVD, I got all emotional all over again. ;). Still haven't had time for fanfics, though, but a new November poll is up, so go and vote now! I will still accept fanficsubmissions, but remember to keep your fics PG-13 or under please. And please sign the guestbook!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
8.27.05 Just popping in to say that I've put up the new September poll so feel free to go and vote! I am just settling in to college life, so no new fics for now. However, I will accept any submissions that you have, just keep your fics PG-13 or under please. My trip was great; as soon as I have a full account typed up, I'll post the link for anyone interested. Don't forget the guestbook!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
8.8.05 About time for another update! I've put up the August poll so make sure to vote! Also, my affiliate Kel Vintage has a new layout and review of ROTS, so be sure to check that out. I'm off to Italy and German for the next two weeks, and then I'm off to college, so I probably won't update until the beginning of September. But feel free to delve into the fics until then. And sign the guestbook please!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
7.9.05 *Ruby-Flame hums an E flat and belts out* Happy Birthday to OAIAT, Happy Birthday to OAIAT, Happy Birthday dear OAIAT, Happy Birthday to OAIAT! Four Years of bringing you P/A fanfiction! May Star Wars addictions never die!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
7.8.05 I've decided to create a new poll every month. To vote on this month's new poll click here. More fics coming soon! And by the way, guess what site turns four years old tomorrow? Huh? Huh? ;)
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
7.5.05 I hope that everyone had a great 4th of July. I certainly did...you can see on my latest blog . Sorry about the delay in updating, but my jobs and my new obsession with the JediGirl Forums have been keeping me busy. I do have a new fic up to celebrate my third time seeing ROTS (saw it with my brother and my friend Liz on July 1st); it's called Because of Vader and depicts Vader's thoughts as he overlooks the construction of the Death Star (the last Vader scene of ROTS). I also want to share a great site/blog I visited called Master Yoda's Blog ; it is absolutely hilarious! Well, surf the site, check out the feature story if you haven't yet, and please sign the guestbook on your way out. I'm still accepting additions to the chainstory and waiting for input in the polls. And if you've got any question, comments *ahem, feedback* or episode III reviews, send them to me!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
6.14.05 Act 5 is FINISHED! I have worked long and hard, so please send me some feedback! And today is a day of good news, because not only that, but thanks to JediGirl, I now have a forum! I am so excited! Well, take a look at some fics and don't forget to vote in the polls, or send me your episode III reviews, or send additions to the chainstory. More fics to come, and definetly stop by the forum if you can!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
6.7.05 Act 5 is taking so long! I've been working hard on it...but it will still be another week or so before I finish. But it will be done. I just wanted to update to say that I finished reading Revenge of the Sith by Matthew Stover, and it was brilliant. Not only does Stover have a gift with Star Wars, but he has a skillful mastery over the english language. Wow. If you haven't read the book, I highly recommend it. The movie would have been even better if it had more closely followed the book. Other news: I should have a forum up pretty soon. Check back in a few days!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
5.31.05 I do keep my promises, for a new fic is up: A Mother's Gift. Please read it and send feedback! And I am still working on Act 5...but it may still be a few days yet. Until then...
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
5.25.05 I added my own review of Revenge of the Sith, and I also would like for anyone to submit their own thoughts on ROTS so that perhaps I can create a whole new page of movie reviews! That's all for now, but I promise that next update I will have some new fics (including Act 5).
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
5.23.05 The Polls section is back up--go vote! Also, today I noticed that none of the links were working on the Feature page, so they are now fixed, and I would love for anyone who has not yet read the feature story (act 1-4) to read it and send me feedback! I noticed some typos that I will have to eventually fix, but I'm saving a big re-vamp of the acts for when I finish the series. In fact, I've been working on Act 5 for the past hour now and still have a way to go, but I will finish it as quickly as possible, so check back here in the next few days.
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
5.22.05 I've seen it again! I'm still speechless, so I will be back with some fics and more to say. For now, I'm still under the spell.
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
5.21.05 I've seen it. I feel so fulfilled...and yet so empty. I won't give anything away just yet for those who have not seen it, but I will say that I am glad that I made it spoiler free, for the movie was a complete thrill for two and a half hours. I'm also glad that I read Labyrinth of Evil before seeing the movie, for it helped to know the events leading up to the movie. That way, I could smile when I understood Obi-Wan's quip about Cato Nemodia. Wow, there was so much foreboding and symbolism and fruition of past foreboding in that movie; I am simply overwhelmed. What a conclusion. Well, I would like to create a new section of your reviews of the movie, or discuss the movie in further detail with any of you (because I'm short on buddies to discuss the film with; none of my friends here share my passion), so please e-mail me those reviews/discussions and I'll be a happy camper! So, I'm off to bed to try to sleep with ROTS thoughts swirling in my head, and I'll be back soon because now that school is out and I've seen the movie, the plot bunnies have been re-awakened!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
5.21.05 I think the release of the final Star Wars film is reason enough to change the layout, don't you? While I imagine that Ruby is even now gripping the arms of her movie theater seat, I've been changing the decor around here a bit. It's still kinda.. blue.. but hopefully it's different enough from the last layout. As to ROTS itself-- I was speechless for at least a day afterwards. It's like a P/A 'shipper's best dream and worst nightmare all at once. It's Star Wars! I'm sure Ruby will be able to express it better than I. For now, I leave you with eye candy, and the hopes that Ruby's muses will get cracking. Remember to send her feedback! ^__^
-Meredith
5.18.05 Oh goodness, only one hour away from the midnight showing an I don't get to see it. :( In fact, I won't get to see ROTS until *gasp* Saturday and the delay is killing me. What I wouldn't do to see ROTS in an hour (except, obviously, for sneaking the car and going ;)) Uh...but there is some good news, OAIAT has a new affiliate, A Master and Apprentice, a very informational and visual stunning site. Okay, gotta go dwell in my non-ROTS-seeing-until-Saturday pity (a.k.a sleep). Really, next time I will see you on the dark side, and we will have some talking (and fic writing) to do, yes we will!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
5.17.05 My deepest apologies for the LONG delay; I have been so busy playing the lead in my school's musical "Bye Bye Birdie" (which was an amazing experience) but now the show is over. However, my excitment is only building because look at the date! Only 2 more days until ROTS. Can you believe it? It seems like it was just yesterday that I was spending my day over at the movie theatre to see Episode II and now the entire series is about to be wrapped up in one movie. I swear, 2005 is the greatest year to be a high school Star Wars lovin' senior. Well, I've got to get back to reading Labyrinth of Evil. I'm sure I'll have fics all over the place after I see the movie. See you on the dark side!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
4.8.05 *Happy Birthday to Me* I am 18 years old today! And I must have the greatest boyfriend ever, because for my birthday gift he got me two Star Wars books-- Labyrinth of Evil and REVENGE OF THE SITH. Oh, it is so tempting to read ROTS, but I am resolved to ABSOLUTELY NO spoilers before watching the movie. So I'll pick up LOE first. And then I will...wait...*gritting teeth in impatience* for the movie.
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
3.18.05 My excitment over the trailer has created a new work of fiction. Please take a look at my new fic: Not His Eyes. If you need to watch the trailer, go here. And don't forget that feedback is very appreciated! Also, please drop a note in the guestbook before you leave. May the Force be with you! I'm off to Georgia for Spring Break, so leave me lots of messages for when I return! *puppy eyes*
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
3.14.05 Wow! What else can you say after watching the greatest trailer! I can't wait to see Palpatine fight but I can wait to see Amidala's heart get broken...:( :( :( I am feeling all giddy now because Star Wars excites me so... a little over two months and then the wait is finally over!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
2.1.05 Just a quick update to say that I changed the misc page just slightly so that it will load faster on slower browers (I replaced the banners with text links). I know that it may not be as pretty, but some of you out there may thank me. I am so excited that May is getting closer and closer...no, not because I graduate in May, because that is when ROTS premiers in theaters!!!! No new stories; I am SO busy with school and scholarship applications. However, I would love any donations (just e-mail your stories to me and if I like them, I'll host them) or additions to the chainstory. Don't forget to sign the guestbook on your way out!
~Ruby-Flame Jedi Queen~
1.12.05 Hello everyone and welcome back! I apologize for the long delay in updates; you can thank yahoo for that because they locked me out of my geocities account and so I had to create an entirely new account and move all the files, which obviously took some time. Here is what is new: Jade Blood submitted a new addition to the chainstory, and over christmas I recieved two christmas cards from Megan and Obi's Girl which you can see here and here. Also, Obi's Girl has submitted a new P/A fic called Save Him. More coming soon!
