| The Blue Engine |
Author has written 27 stories for Thomas the Tank Engine, Pokémon, TUGS, and Web Shows. Hello Fanfiction.net! My name is Ethan and I live in Auckland, New Zealand, a little old place at the end of the Earth where not a lot happens. I have been obsessed with writing for many years, beginning when I was a child writing horrifically cheesy Thomas the Tank Engine fics that I still have copies of that make me cringe whenever I read them. Around six years ago I began work on my first original story which paved the way for me looking into becoming more serious about my writing and broadening my horizions. I joined FanFiction.net in 2008 with a Thomas Railway Series-themed story "Toby's Vintage Train", and I soon broadened into the world of Pokemon fan fiction after I played LeafGreen and decided to do a series based on Red and Leaf. I now have a large amount of Thomas and Pokemon stories on this site, with those numbers set to increase. I have a universe for each franchise where all my stories take place for them, and my Pokemon world, the GalacticVerse, has it's own community within the website - it is not crucial to read all the stories, but there will be extensive crossovers between the various series to bring all the characters together. I also have a TUGS story, with a sequel coming when I can finally get around to doing it, and I am planning on doing other fan fictions with my main view on doing Harry Potter and Game of Thrones/Ice and Fire work. You will probably like my work if you like a variety of characters, lots of dramatic sequences, intense Pokemon battles for those stories, the odd one liner and the sort of plots where you get a million new questions every chapter but only a few answers every so often :P I will not say all of my work is brilliant, but I believe there is something for everyone and I hope you all enjoy! :D Interests: Reading and writing is dominant. Favourite Thomas Characters: Edward, Toby, Henry, Rheneas, Rusty, Oliver, Arthur and Trevor STORY UPDATES: - Sorry for the massive delay in all Pokemon/GalacticVerse stories. I will be working on clearing this all up and getting back to a more regular publishing schedule and making up for the massive gap between The First Warriors chapters. | |||||||
