After analysing so many books, stories and pieces of literature I have come to a conclusion that the right name can be a difference between an amazing piece of work or a total piece of shit.
As I'm writing this I am looking outside of the window and seeing two adorable birds acting all coupley, and I don't know why I'm writing that or why it caught my attention but I can't help myself they're too unusual....
Anyway, back to my writing.
I can give you, reader, advice on how to give perfect names for so many different kinds of situations, stories, and characters... although my weakness is remembering names, but that doesn't matter because I'm really good at giving names.
One of the birds just flew off. The other one did a shit. But you didn't need to know that did you? Huh?

Queen Oneshots (Slash)
Queen slash. Old drabbles/oneshots I wrote long ago + some newer ones. May use some of these for a story in the future. I wanted a place to put them and figured I might as well share them. Range from smut/angst/fluff. Though I honestly tend to write angst either by itself or with fluff/smut. 2024 NOTE: I'm finally reading this after writing it ~7 years ago.... what was wrong with me? Don't get me wrong, l'm glad people have found my fics and enjoy them; I cannot help but look back at the things I wrote as a teenager without editing it all in my head! Or worse, wanting to delete it! Don't worry, though. I know the pain of a good fic being deleted and if these are good to someone l'd hate to be that person but gahhhhhhhh I clearly needed therapy and a thesaurus.Complete!["My Little Monster~"|| Selever X Reader [DISCONTINUED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/268673945-256-k202187.jpg)
"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
Mother Knows Best
You know how you trauma-dump on your friends and they say, "Omg, that's insane, you should write a book about it!" Well, more people have made that remark to my mother as she exaggerates all her stories, so I took the liberty of taking that advice for myself. I am a writer, after all, and I tend to write out my feelings and trauma to work through it on my own, just to delete it later. But why not make some of those memories that haunt me so much into story form? It's definitely more entertaining. So, you'll find my entire life story, or at least what I remember, here in this book on Wattpad. Each chapter is a real event that occurred in my life, mostly involving my emotionally abusive mother, nearly absent and aggressive father, my runaway older sister, and even a little boy we fostered for a moment. If you're interested or possibly are going through something similar, please read and know that there is hope. I made it out and I am on my healing journey, it is possible.
Our Butterfly Effect - A Drarry Story
This Is A Fanfiction About Draco Malfoy And Harry Potter. Read the sections at the bottom before choosing to read this story. Time travel AU with creature inheritances. Cover Isn't Mine And Neither Is The World Of Harry Potter, We All Know It Belongs To J.K. Rowling. A twisted take on my previous story Soulmates. The boys travel back in time after the Battle of Hogwarts happens in their original timeline. In this they find out that everything before wasn't as it seemed. They keep their original memories as well so mentally they're technically adults but physically they are children. They will be children. Honestly, this will have a ton of triggering scenes and inappropriate language that's all I'm going to say. As of the second chapter something is implied but not mentioned. Just to clarify it is child abuse/rape. I will not have explicit scenes of it, but it may be referenced to in future chapters. I also will not consider smut scenes until the characters are at least 18 years old, just to ensure Wattpad will not remove this story because of underage characters. I am not sorry about that. PLEASE NOTE: I know what it's like to stop reading a fanfiction story because I suddenly lost interest. So, IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE STORY YOU CAN ALWAYS STOP READING. Sometimes I wonder what happened and go back to it, so if you get halfway through then decide not to finish it, I recommend putting it in a list, so you can find it later. IMPORTANT: I write then post, so this isn't planned out. There's little warnings because of that so if something does trigger you, I'm sorry for not warning you before you started to read the story. I will try and place triggers where I can for severe things like sex scenes (If I write it) or severe gore. I will and have warned you that this will have foul language.
Mary Daniels and the Prisoner of Malfoy Manor
I do not own the characters or settings of Harry Potter at all and I am only creating this story for entertainment purposes "You are the start of a new order, you are the beginning, and we were the end. We don't expect you to be like, us, and frankly if you were we'd be shocked. We named you after the beginning of our line, Mary Daniels, because you both are one in a billion" I want to warn all possible readers that this story is a fancfiction based on both the books AND the movies. Though most of the moments will be made up by me, some of the moments will be taken from one of the 'canon' mediums, and if you see a moment that is an alteration from the books, assume it came from the movies (or from my brain, obviously)
All My Life
As the hero and allies go to face off against the dark forces in one epic battle, faulty architectural support leads our protagonist to the bottom of the pit where she must decide the fate of not only her people, but her enemies' as well. This story was written for a friend of mine fore Christmas in about a week and was also the first story I ever completed so I understand that the writing isn't the greatest but that's why I'm putting it here, to get constructive criticism to help further my writing knowledge. I also do know that a lot of the names are from other works but they were a reference for my friend to figure out to make the story a little bit more personal for here (and now I'm posting it for the public but she said I could). Furthermore, if you notice any inconsistency in the names, like 'Frisk' being written instead of 'Fritz', just let me know and I'll fix it. I was writing this after playing Undertale so I had that name in my mind and might not of caught every mistake I made.Complete
The rambling of a writer
[Me, complaining and contradicting all and everything written in every fanfiction created.] No hate, Just me, rambling about different topics in Fanfiction writing. Why? Because we all start somewhere, am I right? The good, the bad, the rightout clichès and the straight up delulu stuff. Note that I probably did most -if not all- of these things myself when writing, so be prepared of your beautiful cringefest and maybe learn a thing or two about writing a plot/story. Side note: Writing is a creative process, so... no shame in making any mistakes! We all have to start from somewhere! Side side note: Most of the things I talk about come either from my personal opinion OR from the things I've learned over the years. I've been writing since age ten and even did a Minor in creative writing whilst studying for my degree. Last side side side note: The fun is to read these chapters and then visit a random story on wattpadd. I guarentee you, you'll either groan in annoyance ance you can see these things or you giggle at how predictable things will get once you know some writer mistakes. It's all fun and it educates all of us! -xXx-

Second No More, a novel
I've dreamed of the perfect marriage ever since I was a little girl: a marriage complete with a hardworking husband while I tended to the home and our children, preferably four little rugrats to call my own. I dreamed of a life filled with laughter, joy, and success, a life we built together. I dreamed of growing old next to my husband, creating a great love story to tell our grandchildren someday. It all seemed so possible. I was raised to be the perfect wife, after all. From the outside, it seemed I had exactly what I dreamed of with the rich, determined husband; the brilliant, gaudy diamond ring; and the beautiful home filled with the hope of future children. Yes, it was all a dream come true. I should have felt grateful, really. The problem is, I also wanted a marriage based on love, passion, and affection, but those are the only things my husband cannot give me . . . . . . because they're reserved for her. For readers: * I do my best to proofread before publishing, but some typos and errors will slip through. Feel free to point them out! * Comments, active engagement, and helpful critiques are welcomed. * Mean, unnecessary comments that attack me, personally, or other commenters will be ignored and deleted. It takes a lot of courage to publish your work and for others to actively engage in a community. I'd like to keep this a safe and fun place to rage at imperfect heroes and cheer for darling heroines! * I'm not a spicy writer. I rather use my word count for plot, character development, and GROVEL!!! * Most importantly, I hope you enjoy the little world I'm creating. Happy reading, everyone! ADS/Imaginationgirl35Complete
She's The Girl Next Door (MAJOR EDITING)
'Bad Boys Ain't Good But Good Boys Ain't No Fun.' "Don't look, but it's the king of being horny behind you." I automatically looked behind me, making Autumn scoff at me. She shook her head. "Ace Ford." Autumn's face retorted in disgust. "Every girl's 'dream guy'." Her fingers made quotation marks. "Let me just tell you Jane, that boy is disgusting." Ace leaned against the railing of the bleachers. He pushed his dark brown hair back and smirked as he talked to one of the blonde cheerleaders. "How so?" I questioned, turning back towards her. She raised an eyebrow. "Just look at the guy, doesn't he just scream 'I won't have sex with you and immediately ditch you unless you have dubble D's and the IQ of a goldfish?'" "He can't be that bad." I said, causing her to snort. ___________ Warning: Very Mild cursing. That's why I'm making it PG13 guys. Read at own risk. Hope you guys like the story. ____________ 2k16 edit: Howdy, how are you doing this godawful day? Burning in hell for your sins? Same! Great. Now that the formalities are out the window I'd just like to say... WHY AM I SUCH A DISGRACE TO MANKIND. What is this writing /-~-\ oh goodness gracious. How does this doodoo have 6k reads *siiiiiiiigh* My writing has improved at ton (I am assuming) and this was my first book so please, pretty pretty please don't hate me for all the mistakes and plot holes. I- I am very ashamed myself. And Engelesh is NOT my first language either so haaaaa, life. Mistakes were made so don't kill me. Okay, that's all for me. I still hope you somehow enjoy the story nonetheless and have a GREAT existence! ______ 2020 update So, I started writing this when I was 11. I am 18 now and haven't edited this since I was 15. I hope that says enough. Try to ignore the spelling and grammar mistakes!Complete
