I read a LOT of fanfiction- really I read more than I'd ever like to admit, but I find that I discard a lot of these stories right when I start reading them because sometimes they are almost unreadable. Sometimes I'll read the first paragraph and I'll have to throw it out of my library right then, but I want to help with this. In this needed book I plan on explaining some of the things I hate to find in fanfics that make me just want to throw the whole book away.
Keep in mind this are mostly my opinion, but I find that a lot of my friends and fellow readers can relate to these things. Maybe you can even change some of the ways you write your own stories so they can be the best for your readers?
(P.S. I don't really know why I made this book)
(P.P.S. I plan on being extremely insensitive about this- you can blame me being a gemini, but if you don't like that than I'd prefer you forget about ever seeing this book.)

Not mature for the younger audiences. -------------------------------- I don't like explaining my books because when I do I tend to write everything that happens, so I am just going to say that I come up with these horribly dark ideas and put them into books, of course these books may be sad, and maybe even a bit sadistic, and in my mind they are badass, but when I write them down I don't feel as if I can show what I am truly imagining. I feel as if they suck, but my best friend tells me that they are amazing and that I better publish them when I finish so I did. Obviously. So eh. Yes, I know I happen to say this in each of my story descriptions but I truly do end up ruining the story if I write about it. There is foul language, sexual content, stupidity, and most likely some grammar errors, so I'm just forewarning anyone that reads it. I also try to make each chapter 2000 words or more, I suppose if that isn't enough someone will eventually tell me so here you go. ><><><><><><><><><><> Book 1- Deceived Book 2- Different Book 3- Ruthless There is another series that ties to this one, of course I don't name my series so I will just give the names of the books in order, but they should be read first, although it doesn't honestly matter as long as Ruthless is read last.

RotG/GoC Fanfiction Writing Tips
If you've been looking for some writing advice specific to the RotG/GoC fandom and/or fanfiction in general, you're in luck! I rewrote my Wattpad guide from years ago to make it better. This guide includes information about things like centers, fandom-specific clichés, and titles and descriptions. *** All follows, votes, and comments are greatly appreciated. :) Critiques, constructive criticism, and reviews are also welcome and encouraged, as long as they aren't something purely hateful like "u suck". Take note of the word "constructive". I also posted this guide on DeviantArt and Quotev under accounts of the same username as the one I have on this website. Disclaimer: I don't own "Rise of the Guardians" (© DreamWorks Animation) or the Guardians of Childhood series (© William Joyce) that it was based off of.Complete

"My Little Monster~"|| Selever X Reader [DISCONTINUED]
Hello! This is my first book so there will probably be some Errors but i'll try my best to fix it. Also English is not my native language so pardon my bad grammar😅😅😅 . Anyway here are some keywords: (Y/N) = Your Name (L/N) = Last Name (H/C) = Hair Colour (H/L) = Hair Length (F/C) = Favourite Colour (S/F/C) = Second Favourite Colour (F/F) = Favorite Food (F/D) = Favourite Drink (F/S) =Favourite Sweet (B/N) = Brother's Name (M/N) = Mother's Name (F/N) = Father's Name __________________________________________________________________________________ You're on college btw and (Y/N) is female. here's a peek at my book. _________________________________________It was a sunday morning and you were making lunch for you and you're roommates. Suddenly you got a call from the headmaster saying that you and your roommates would be having a new roommate and that they would be arriving after lunch. ~Time Skip~ You were playing video games on the couch when you heard a knock on the door. You were confused on why there were knocking on the door because it was Sunday and most of the students were out doing god knows what. Then you suddenly remembered that the headmaster told you that you were having a new roommate today. You opened the door and you see a cute half human half demon boy. "Oh! You must be our new roommate. Nice to meet you, My name's (Y/N) (L/N)." You introduced yourself. "Sup cutie. The names Selever nice to meet you." ............... That's all folks! If you want more of this story, I suggest you read this book. Edit: Just a fair warning. Some chapters may have been jumbled Because of an error so please check the chapters before you read them please.Complete

Not mature for the younger audiences. -------------------------------- I don't like explaining my books because when I do I tend to write out everything that happens, so I am just going to say that I come up with these horribly dark ideas and put them into books, of course these books may be sad, they may be horrible, and maybe even a bit sadistic, but in my mind they are badass, and I feel as if I should write them out. Of course they don't come out as I want them to but oh well you'll get the idea. I honestly think that they could be better but I had been told by my best friend that they are 'sadistically amazing' and that I should post them once they are finished, so meh. Yes, I know I happen to say this in each of my story descriptions but I truly do end up ruining the story if I write about it and I rather not go and spoil a book when I don't like it being done to me. There will be foul language, sexual content, some gay people, some stupidity, also some possible triggers, and most likely some grammar errors. So I'm just forewarning anyone that reads it. I also try to make each chapter 2000 words or more, I suppose if that isn't enough someone will eventually tell me so here you go. I get all of my pics from Google, so.... Hm hm Yeh. Also if by some chance someone does like my books and is inspired, at least message me before you steal the idea. Otherwise have fun and don't hate.Complete
From The Heart
Do you know the times when you want to say something, but can't? Or the times when you are sad and need someone to give you a hug? The times your worst enemy hugs your boyfriend? Or the times you are so angry you punch a locker and have to pay to get it repaired? Well with writing my thoughts, passions, anger triggers, enemies, love, hatred, even happiness out for people. Makes me feel like someone can relate to me and I can impact them in any simple or complex way they deem fit. I write because I can and I become free with every word written from my mind, every letter and messed up grammar I have accidentally committed to butchering every time I write. I may not make a difference, heck, I may not even have a lot of people who read but those who do read when I write about how I thought up a story plot or something for my best friend, they will always make me feel like I'm making the difference because someone actually read what I thought at a certain time and day and maybe even listened. That's what makes me feel wanted and happy like I can do something other than run my stubborn mouth and have a mother hen personality. That is what will continue as I write. fortunately, the thing is no one can take it away either, and that my readers are what makes the mind a great thing.Complete
Sun Wukong & Macaque x Female reader oneshots & headcanons
I'm definitely VERY embarrassed and I know I'll go to hell for this, reading this stuff doesn't feel much of a sin but someone writing it??? and smut? That's the bravest person I ever know, wow. Never in my life have I managed to write a whole smut scene without being embarrassed and quitting asap. Oh, I'm probably rambling too much, ok, anyway I wouldn't say I'm a experienced writer, but I'm kind of average one, writing about 2k+ words (Depends on the plot, really), but I honestly think my writing sucks compared to others... sure there's a lot of words and shit but I'm kinda uncreative SO that's why you'll all be requesting and I'll write. the perfect idea ever. Not sure if needed but TW; Most stories do contain cussing, and if there's anything more I'll always put a TW before the chapter begins (But I won't put a TW for cussing)Complete
/~BNHA short stories~\
[discontinued] Basically just some drabbles, oneshots, shorter stories and possibly headcanons from the world of 'My Hero Academia' because I don't think that making several books would be necessary since I don't plan on writing long stories, so I'll just keep one book for that. This is mainly for myself only, to keep some fluffy, maybe little angsty stories here, but if anyone reads it, it will make me happy that people like it. Also, I want to get better at writing, so that's why I want to write the stories down, so I can get back to them later and learn from my mistakes. __ I will be writing in different povs in each story (like 1st person, different types of 3rd person and others maybe too) to see what I'm comfortable with the most and what fits me the best, same goes to tenses and other stuff like that. Might include: -fluff -angst with happy ending -memes and cringe stuff -violence (bcs obvious reasons) -swearing (bcs Bakugou) -shipping (and I won't tell you the ship bcs me is a multishipper that's why, so idk what ship, but be ready to all types of ships (boyXboy, girlXgirl, girlXboy and others as well - poly relationships included) ____ I might take requests if anyone wants, might even do Xreader if requested, so if you want to request something, you can just leave a coment or some. I think that's it for now, update schedule will be random for now, also will give trigger warnings to the beggining of every story (some might take more chapters, in that case the TW will be only included in the first one) Also I do not own the show or the character, tho I might add some every now and then but not much just sometimes when needed i guess, like family members of a character that have never been introduced in the show. Also also, if you want to repost any of the stories or make something inspired by any of my stories, please ask first, thanksComplete
