Yep, self-explanatory. For those of you with the ability to catch a drift like a canoe, lemme tell ya: this Saturday, October 31st, 2009, I will post a something on that day. That day is called Halloween. It's a day when girls can wear provocative skirts and not get yelled at, when men scare people, and when children walk the streets prowling the unsuspecting and robbing them of convectional treats mass produced by fine makers of sweets and gobs.

What is it? A short story that has no bearing or significance on my stories thus far.

And yes, I felt a need to post this at 1:50 in the morning. Because I'm freaking hyped up on something. What is it? I'd love to know.

Which category have you submitted the most to?

Writing, hands down.

I stole this from because I liked these questions.

What does your username have to do with you? Is it a combination of your favorite things, or a character of yours?
I love telling this story. It's based on a character of mine: Demon King Atticus. Some of my earliest accounts use the "Demon" part but I figured I'd chop it off for this and other later accounts. Anyways, Demon King Atticus is the first ruler of all the Demons unified in my universe. He's the Spirit of Fire who manifested into a physical form and formed a system that had been in place for thousands of years.

What is your current icon of?
Onion in Study Mode. With the cooler weather coming in a bit earlier than I had expected, I changed him from using a fan to reading a book... which is what I should be doing.

How many watchers do you have and how many people are you currently watching?
I'm currently watching 122 people (that sounds creepy) and being watched by 51 people.

Do you have more than one account?
Nope. What you see is what I got.

Name 3 of your favorite artists on dA.
Let's see... oh, I like so many. I have so many favorites so I can't determine who's art I have more of, but these are my absolute top favorites.
and

If you weren't picked, I still love your work!

What deviant do you admire because of their personality?
I'll be damned if he doesn't become a great writer.

How many people on here do you actually know in reality? Post their avatars.
Only one person, but she might not like unwanted spam.

Do you comment, fave, or both?
More often than not, I just fave. However if I feel a deep need to say something, I'll comment.

What do you typically post on deviantArt?
Mostly writings, but I've got a couple drawings here and there.

Do you participate in clubs or contests here on dA?
The occasional Kiriban and drawings done by users here on the site.

What is your most popular deviation?
In terms of comments: The Mind of KingAtticus [link]
In terms of faves: Bounty: The Aristocracy [link]
In terms of views: Bounty: Introduction [link]

What’s your favorite submission in your favorites gallery?
Clearly I like all of my favorites for various reasons but the one I can look at over and over and still get the same reaction would be this: [link]

What are the things you wish you could draw better?
I guess drawing in general. But if I had to be more specific, people. My characters when drawn look like crap when compared to others. I get great joy in seeing others draw my characters using nothing but my words.

Are you a subscriber?
Nope. I dunno if I'd want to be though...

How many hours a day do you spend on dA?
Plenty.

Are you a fast, slow, or medium typer?
Depends on what I'm writing. I type using hunt and peck and can get up to 23-24 words per minute. I suppose that's about average for that style but slow with touch typing.

What is your favorite emoticon?


What is the most annoying thing people ask you?
"Can you direct me to the library?"
In all seriousness, I don't know.

What inspires you?
Music and composers. Nobuo Uematsu, Motoi Sakuraba, Yoko Kanno, Koji Kondo, and Yasunori Mitsuda to name a few.

Do you use any traditional media?
I use a computer. Not exactly traditional. I suppose I write down all my important dates and names to remember in a Moleskin notebook.

Do you associate people online with their icons?
Like do I judge them? No. I can identify some people I know by their icons.

Have you ever suggested a Daily Deviation?
A what now?

Everyone has considered leaving dA once or twice. Have you? Why?
No. I figure most people I know have a DA account and anyone who wants to read my stuff just come here.

Nobody is tagged! It's a holiday miracle!
