In reality I have "Back in Time," stuck in my head. But what ever. She's charging 5.99 for membership with the promise that'll go up in the future blah blah blah, which is a lulzy crock considering its still fanfiction. Anyone taking bets on when the next explosion of defcon one will be? Annnnd… she’s back!

It was ridiculously unprofessional and of course now highly embarrassing for me, to see the way I behaved here. In fact I did leave things in an unforgivable mess when I left Yaoi House (not once, but twice), and the management who took over after me were doing an excellent job, much better than I could have done. The only problem was I wanted my stories back, hence my ensuing tantrums. It's true, I wasn't at all capable of running a business and I left my affairs in complete disarray both times I left the company. I am attempting to pick up the pieces and restore whatever needs to be restored, to ensure any customers or investors are compensated for their losses. There are about a million apologies in order so I'm almost like Santa Claus with my list, on that one--although in this case I'm the one who's been naughty. I know there are preorders that were not refunded, so if you hold such an order, please contact me at admin@kirafix.com, or Yaoi House at admin@yaoihouse.net, to discuss restitution. Again, my apologies for subjecting you all to such an absurd little drama. I'm so very ashamed. Kira Takenouchi I sincerely apologize for my childish rant on this page.

Everyone who purchased anything from my online store was refunded over a year ago, and if you weren't, you should be contacting ME, not plastering your whiny-ass complaints all over the net like a bunch of unde-aged brats (which most of you probably are).

Since Kira said she is not printing her own novels then I guess she will not be printing theirs. The last time Kira got religion she pubically relinquished all rights to the works of the novelists she had signed up for YaoiHouse and said in print that all contracts were nul and void which released all of the authors to go to a different online reading site with their novels. These two good authors stayed with her even though she was showing alarming signs of nastiness and unstable behavior with the people who were trying to save the site for all of us (not former) members and for the 5 or so authors who had contracts to be published by YaoiHouse. A brave but foolish decision it seems now. I read the two previews and really liked the stories but the pre printing price was pretty steep for soft bound books at $30.00 a piece. Thank God I did not pre-order them at that price because it is obvious now that YaoiHouse will never print them. I was hoping that Kira would consider making the stories available for download for a more reasonable price but probably that was not going too happen and now for sure it will not happen. Too bad, I would have loved to read those stories and if they ever show up somewhere else I will be happy to download them for a more reasonable price except I can not remember the names of the authors, darn! I am not sorry to no longer be assoicated with Kira and her site, as I said in an email to another member, her inspiration was that first Taming Riki book where she made it possible for Iason and Riki of Ai no Kusabi to live instead of die and the rest of her writing, in my humble opinion, lacked the luster of that first book, which was genius and was my introduction to the wonderful world of Yaoi and Thank God for it! It is a beautiful genre, not sinful at all. I wonder what has happend to the two authors who made the decision to stay with Yaoihouse to get their novels published?

It seems everytime she wants to bail and take the money and run she turns to "Jesus" and his apostles. I don't care how mentally ill she's supposed to be. The bottom line is that under the guise of providing a product ie. her books and stories she scammed people out of their money. Yeah I'm bitter and here's a direct quote forwarded to me regarding her Yaoi stories and whether we'll ever see the rest of the books: Please stop emailing me asking me to keep the yaoi fiction up or other similar requests. I've made my decision. You say you respect my decision, "but please [enter inappropriate request here]". Well, to be blunt, you don't respect my decision if you keep emailing me asking me to do what I've clearly already stated I'm not going to do. The stories have been put to sleep, for now. Let them rest in peace. The stories I'll be writing from here on out will be of a much higher quality than any of the yaoi I wrote before. If you enjoyed my writing before, you'll continue to enjoy it now. It's going to get very exciting. Oh how nice!! You took money for stories and now they are "wink,wink" going to be put the sleep... Nice way to dangle the carrot bitch!! Guess what, as far as I'm concerned your fanfics (which is what they are) are public domain because we the public paid for them. You're through!! So as a public service I've uploaded the text files for Taming Riki III and Headmaster's Chambers. You know, the evil fics Jebus told you to get rid of (until as such time as you run out of cash and pimp them out once more to unsuspecting people). You're through scamming!! I hope these links end up everywhere!! and on every LJ. Your refusal to refund people's money makes me sick!! Grab the links folks, don't let this scammer get away!! http://www.4shared.com/file/92050297/5de8fd83/Headmaster_Chambers.html http://www.4shared.com/file/92050288/d44cd153/Part_III_Taming_Riki.html I’m glad someone else is outing this fraud!!!
