[edit] Writing Trademarks
- A number of her stories have been inspired by song lyrics and titles. (Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper) (I Won't See You Tonight by Avenged Sevenfold)
- When using AVALANCHE in her stoires, Kisara likes to make note to the original incarnation of
Élfe, Sears and Fuhito, seen in Before Crisis; she seems to have a very strong liking to this original idea of the terrorist group.
- When writing an Author's Note at the beginning of a story, Kisara has a habit of allowing colloquial Irish slang into her writing, though this is rarely seen in the actual content of the story - only side-notes.
- She likes to thank readers for taking the time to read her story at the beginning and end of a chapter.
- She has a habit of over-using elipses (...), causing sentences to clash. She has recently begun to rectify this in her previous works.

[edit] Notes
- For almost a year, Kisara Strife was unsure if she had a form of Epilepsy and sought medical attention regarding fit-like episodes. This had an affect on her writing and uploads slowed down dramatically. About a month ago, after a CT scan, she was given the all-clear.
[edit] Kas
- Kisara Strife seems to use another alias as many are seen to refer to her as "Kas". This name is also seen in her signature when replying to reviews, favs and alerts. Kisara cited that the name "Kas" is derived from the initials of one of her earliest OCs - "Kisara Aerith Strife" from an early story called "Overcoming The Past". As the story didn't recieve as much recognition as hoped, Kisara removed it from her profile to be reworked. It has not yet appeared.
"N'yah, it was my second ever fic and really naive, with bad grammer, loads of dialogue and really paper-thin chracterization. But this one OC's name always stuck in my head and I just think that Kas is a lot easier to type out than Kisara Strife. It's cool though; I have my pen-name and then my little name, lol!!" - Kisara Strife (Posted on her Fanfiction.Net profile about two months ago.
- It is to be pointed out that the alias "Kas" has nothing to do with the Sailor Moon fan fiction author of the same name.
