![]() Author has written 11 stories for Inheritance Cycle, Harry Potter, Elder Scrolls series, Pokémon, Naruto, Avengers, A Song of Ice and Fire, Avatar: Last Airbender, and One Piece. Hey everyone, My name is Twubs, at least on this site. I am an aspiring author who took to Fanfiction to improve my writing. I chose to do it here because of the immediate feedback I can get from my reviewers. This feature has led me to see perspectives I never thought about, and improve upon my writing drastically. I have three stories up at the moment and that shouldn't change for a while. Below are a little about their stories, nothing plot wise, just my journey with them. Consider supporting me on my (P)(a)(t)(r)(e)(o)(n) P.S. I'm under the same username! ;) Follow me on instagram at wtmcdonaldauthor Follow me on Twitter at Twubswrites Stronghammer: Completed This is my first ever work on the site, and the story I'm most proud of. I learned a lot in the sevenish months it took me to finish it. I loved every single second of the journey to finishing it, and still look back envious of those times. Even the review that were harsh, I loved. I really discovered my passion and love for writing with this story and will never forget it. Stronghammer really showcases my journey as a writer also. The first few chapters (about 1-7) were thrown together in about five days total. The quality will reflect that, honestly. Then I started taking it week by week and really focused on improving certain aspects of my writing. Around chapter 15 is where I think I made a real turn with this story and my writing. This also lines up with when I started writing Voleur D'âme and put myself on a two chapter a week schedule. From this chapter till the end, I personally think that I made huge improvements in writing and developing my own style. This is my baby, and she will always have a special place in my heart. So check it out if you want. I love it for the simple fact that it is proof of my improvements. Voleur D'âme: Completed My second story. As I said above, I started writing it about halfway through Stronghammer. At the time, it was a plot in my head that demanded to be written, kind of like all my stories. I really felt like I had grown a lot as a writer and wanted to start something that would be good from start to finish. I admit that I might have been wrong in that sense, I still hadn't truly developed my style yet. But it allowed me to improve at a much faster rate. I got new perspectives from writing different characters and that really helped me a lot overall. It is what really solidified my writing, and now that it is over, I think that it was the story I learned the most from. I have a few things I would change. Mostly I just wish that I could have incorporated more characters into the story. If you read it, you'll see what I mean fairly quickly. I tend to focus on a few important characters and it could have been done better. I wish I would have world-built a little more, but overall, I am extremely please with how everything turned out. This is my most popular story by far. It may change in the future, but it is natural for readers to move it over to their fav's after a fic is finished. All in all, I am so happy at how everything turned out and what it taught me. This might be my crowning joy, plot wise. There are some basic writing errors, but overall I'm so proud of this one. Courage: Completed. This is me trying to prepare myself for my own epic fantasy series. So I chose the Elder Scrolls for it's potential with being such a series. Now that it is completed. The story changed so much from what I expected. This story really taught me how the promises I make at the beginning of the fic can derail the story towards the middle/end. It upset some people when it was revealed there were more than one SI. I can understand that. I have taken this into account when it comes to my future fics, and original stories. This story had so much potential, that I don't think I managed to capitalize on. But you live and you learn. I still enjoy it thoroughly. Conquer: Completed. This is just a little something that popped into my head one day when Umodin (Author on this site! Check him and his stories out!) and I were pming back and forth about our fics. Then I went back and reread his Pokemon SI! 'Y'know Nothing Jon Snow'. Conquer popped up then and refused to not be put on paper, so I did! The League is very controlling in this story, and Team Rocket is waaayyyy more dangerous! Now that it is completed, it holds a special place in my heart. This story is the one story that taught me how to treat a main character to help him realize his 'hero' potential. I torture Brawly in this story, to get him to where he needs to be. It is definitely darker than the others. There is more death close to the character than any other I have written. This story also got the most hate, for the simple fact that I brutalized Brawly the entire way. Defiant This is my Naruto!SI story. It will be very AU. It features a world where Naruto is not the Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tailed Fox. And then someone from our world is thrown into Naruto and gets to discover the massive differences from the anime, and this real world Narutoverse. Very excited to see it come together. Advanced chapters can be found at (P)(a)(t)(r)(e)(o)(n) The Ladder Well I never thought I would do a gamer fic, but this one just wouldn’t leave me alone. This is a common theme you’ll see from me regarding my stories, they bug me until I give in and next thing you know, you’re eleven chapters deep! Advanced chapters can be found at (P)(a)(t)(r)(e)(o)(n). Alpha My return to Harry Potter after Voleur D'âme. I loved that story and Ron, but I also think things could have gone much much differently. I actually had Harry as my top SI before Ron, but when I wrote my first story, it just seemed to flow with Ron better. This story will be different, with a Werewolf Harry! Advanced chapters can be found at (P)(a)(t)(r)(e)(o)(n) A-Bomb I really enjoy this story, now that I have gotten it to where it needs to be. But the first few chapters are rough, I’ll admit it. I gave him too much power too quickly, and then decided to rip it away, but I didn’t do it gracefully. Will most likely rewrite some of the first chapters before I continue it. Siegfried Now I wrote this before Thor: Love and Thunder came out and Jane Foster Thor was only a comic book thing. I really like the political conflict this would bring within Asgard, and also what it did mentally for the original Thor. That’s why I used the trauma of losing Mjolnir as trauma for the SI! Enjoy! Tsunami of the South This is my newest story and honestly I’m really excited about this one. The Avatar world is fascinating to me and the bending is only a little bit of the equation. The spirits and the political state of the world are what really do for me. So much conflict and yet so much potential for growth. Advanced chapters can be found at (P)(a)(t)(r)(e)(o)(n) Yo HO! My attempt at a decent One Piece fanfiction. It has promise! Follow Robert Hood and the Green Hood Pirates on their journey through the legendary anime! Advanced chapters can be found at (P)(a)(t)(r)(e)(o)(n) If you would like to support me on (P)(A)(T)(R)(E)(O)(N) for my journey to financial independence as an Author. There are many tiers to suit the financial situation for many people. Any support is cherished! Current top Patron’s are: Yourwordsmysoul Andrew McIntosh Mahzad RDZ90 My own original work of fantasy. My works on this site have led me to chasing my dream: Writing full time as a fantasy author. I have already started on my first original work of fantasy. I pretty much have all of it planned and outlined already and work on it when I am not trying to improve on the site. I hope to get my first draft of the manuscript finished by the end of the year. I think I can meet this deadline realistically. I'll be posting updates about it (not chapters or anything of the like) on my social media below. FOLLOW ME AT WTMCDONALDAUTHOR ON INSTAGRAM. I post maybe once or twice a week, which may change. Also thinking about doing recommendations for Fanfics and also popular fantasy works that have helped me a lot in life, or ones that I just really enjoyed in general. I will also update everyone on my own work of Fantasy here. When the day comes, I hope everyone will support me by buying my own work. :D |
