Author has written 19 stories for Uncharted series, Mass Effect, Call of Duty, Red Dead Redemption, Dragon Age, and Saw.

I'm guessing if you're at this page you've either stumbled onto it by accident, gotten the link somehow, or read a story I wrote, so first off, thank you for coming.

I do love writing, both fanfiction, regular fiction, nonfiction, blogs, you name it. It's awesome. My main source of fanfic will be video games, just because they're what I'm the most exposed to, what I do the most often, and what I enjoy the most. My favorite game is definitely Mass Effect, so I will likely have more fanfiction on that then anything else.

I'm a big fan of constructive criticism. I don't try to apply every little bit of advice, but instead, take a consensus for a story, look at what most people liked, what most people didn't, and apply that to my next story, so if you don't like a story of mine, don't just click out of it, let me know why you disliked it, and maybe you'll enjoy my next story. Same for liking a story, let me know what I did best!

Above all else, thanks for checking this page out and if you end up reading one of my stories (or already have) I hope you enjoy(ed) it and I hope you leave some feedback, but even if not, thanks for reading!
