TheFriendlyCritiquerhide bio
 Author has written 2 stories for Legend of Zelda. Hello! I'm glad you dropped by! I'm a nerdy waifu who is interested in the following: Legend of Zelda, Dragon Ball, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Hetalia. I read a lot of books, many classics included. I think my writing reflects that with the way I sometimes ramble on. Currently I'm only publishing one story: Time's Saga, an Ocarina of Time epic with a few important distinctions. I like reading a lot of others' works and dropping a comment. I guess you could say I have the heart of a teacher (but I'm still in college), so I try to leave worth-while critiques. Hence my name. I don't have the time to fully beta someone's story, but if you would like some feedback I'm more than willing to help out. So good luck with your own stories and please do me the favor of reading mine! Thank you! I hope to hear from you! -The Friendly Critiquer |
