Introduction:

Good day, and welcome to my page! I'm TheShamanMaster. I'm currently 18 years of age, and I live in the UK. I'm studying Media Studies, Photography & English in college at the moment. When I'm not reading/writing fanfiction, I'm usually jamming to my music, doing weights and keeping fit, chilling with friends, doing work and playing video games.

Xbox Live Gamertag: Red Eyes Metal

Playing: Left 4 Dead 2, Blur, Gears 2

History of Penname:

Back in 2004, I was thinking of a name other then my infamous alias, Red Eyes Metal. (If you're on a forum or Youtube, and you see the name 'Red Eyes Metal' or RedEyesMetal without the spaces that's probably me.) At the time, I had just started to watch Shaman King, so I decided to add the word 'master' to it. Other aliases I've had in the past include: Mr Zero, Silent Swordsman, Sharigan no Kakashi, & Uchiha Naruto.

I have been writing fanfiction since 2006. This thing says 2004, as I joined up for the interest at writing GTA stories at the time. Until I read stories from different catergories, I never thought it would have changed my life as much as it has done.

Favorite Types Of Fanfiction:

Well, I like all types of FanFiction. My most favorite has to be Humour or Comedy stories. I like a good laugh every now and then. I like it even more when some characters go OOC! Brings flavor into it! Plus, I like Action and Romance or both together. Horror/Supernatural I'll read if it looks interesting, but I like Humour & Romance more then anything else. Parodies are good also, but I don't see enough of them. Angst, I'll enjoy if it's mixed with either Romance or Action.

My Style of Writing:

Just to let everyone know about how I write fanfiction on anime/manga. I am a 'subby' not 'dubby', meaning in my stories you'll see an extra 'u' in names and terms such as Hyuuga, Toushirou, Kuurama, Chuunin and Jounin etc. My characters are displayed with last name first, for a more original feel. e.g 'Uzumaki Naruto', 'Hitsugaya Toshiro'. Some spellings I use the official ones, but I do like the varies e.g 'Jyuushiro' instead of 'Jushiro'. I do pepper my speech with japanese terms, and I use honorfics as I believe it is the polite way of speaking. e.g san, kun, chan, sama, dono, han (Note, this is for the anime & manga section) Also being born British, you'll see 'u's in my stories also. Any British spellings or unusual words I'll provide details on.

Influences & Inspiration:

Various movies and books such as The Dark Knight, Atlas Shrugged, The Departed, The Godfather, Various British Films, Pirates of the Carribean, Books by Sam Bourne (author), Books by Terry Pratchett (author), The Fountain Head, J.R.R Tolkein, LOTR. Films & books which show strong characterization, development and psychological themes. Directors such as Michael Bay, Michael Mann, Christopher Nolan, Steven Spielberg, David Cronenberg, Martin Scorcese, Gore Verbinski etc. Guys who know what they are doing. If Mann, Bay & Nolan made a film, it would be THE GREATEST FILM ever made. Trust me.

Lastly, when writing, I try to make initial premises of my fics interesting as possible and try not to borrow too much from other works. When writing humour, I like playing the situation in my head and thinking "Is this something this character would do?" and see if it turns out funny. When being serious on the subject, well it all depends. Me and my friends talk situations over and over to we decide what's best. In short, always talk to a friend when you're stuck with a piece of writing as they can help you a lot.

Concerning reviews and such, I can take criticism and advice. I'm always aspiring to do better. Take note when writing humour, I am NEVER serious. If you're gonna say that my grammer's messy or I don't use proper spellings, then go right ahead. Remember, this is SLAPSTICK and it's not SUPPOSE to be serious. Just watch something like South Park, Family Guy etc. It's ridiculous and slapstick, it's never serious.

And of course, the people I have made friends with and subscribed to. You guys and gals write some amazing works, and it's great to see such creativity.
