Author has written 1 story for Naruto.

A Petroleum engineer who enjoys writing. Yeah, you read that correctly.

My passion for writing stems from my hobby of reading fanfiction. Regardless of the fic's quality, I get motivated further after reading each story. If it's well-written, I'll wonder 'can I write like that?' and if it's written poorly I'll think 'Man, this has a thousand favorites? I can do much better!'

So, I'm finally corroborating the preceding claim. I do believe I can write some fics that you'll enjoy, and I hope to do so in the coming months.

My first fic, 'The Runaway Refugee' (title is not set in stone), is currently being written. I have about 5000 words done as of 1/7/18, and am writing at a decent pace, though college is certainly time-consuming. I'll release the first chapter after I write a bit more.

Here is the summary for those interested:

A captive shinobi given a strain of influenza weaponized for biological warfare prematurely escaped a covert underground base before a cure had been developed. How will such a devastating epidemic change the way of life? Will the survivors adapt to a plague-stricken shinobi world?

I hope you all are anticipating it as much as I am. Thanks.

Concurrently, I am writing a gamer Naruto fic. I'll be splitting my time somewhat evenly between the two stories, but feel free to spur me on if I begin to slack.

Here is a list of recommendations. I consider these to be of higher quality than the fics I'm working on and, as such, I urge you to read them before mine. Don't mistake my list of favorites and follows to be any sort of recommendation. I merely do that to make fics I plan to read more easily accessible.

"Dreaming of Sunshine" by Silver Queen

"Chiaroscuro" by boomvroomshroom

"Within Interest" by Silent Songbird (still in its early stages, but it's already riveting)

"Small Changes" by Digitize 27 (I've only read 18 chapters, so take this recommendation with a grain of salt)

"It's for a Good Cause, I Swear!" by Sarah1281

"The Waves Arisen" by Wertifloke (not on fanfiction.net, but one of the best fics ever written)

These are just a few that came to mind, and I'll be sure to update it as I read more.

I love playing a good mmorpg, so I thoroughly enjoy the gamer Naruto concept. Unfortunately, I have yet to come across a fic that executes this concept well. Feel free to PM me a good one.
