General Stuff About Me:

Real Name: Not saying (just refer to me as TGN); unless you're a friend on Switch or Discord, I won't reveal my name.

Gender: Male

Birthday: September 10 (9/10)

Age: Not saying

Nationality: Vietnamese (but I mainly speak English)

Favorite Colors: Red, Blue, Green

Favorite Sports Team: Philadelphia Phillies

All-Time Favorite Song: Phoenix - Lisztomania

Fun Fact: I am a former artist on Miiverse, known to draw tons of SpongeBob memes and connect them to video games (Smash Bros., Splatoon, Mario Kart, etc.). Over a year and a half's worth of experience, my account peaked over 2000 followers before Miiverse was shut down. I still saved my drawings, but sadly, they're no longer accessible on the Internet for me and everyone else who appreciated my art on the social platform.

Stupid Fact: I'm 5'4'', meaning I'm too fucking short to reach anything that people who are at least 5'8'' have no trouble doing.

Bad Habit: I can be easily irritable and express how low my self-esteem is. If I'm in a bad mood, I prefer to not have anyone talk to me until I cool down. You don't want to come near me if I'm ticked off at something or someone.

I (normally) DON'T take story requests, and I DON'T do RPs (roleplays). I also don't own some of the original artworks I have used for my profile/story images.

What to Expect from My Writing:

I tend to write themes based on Adventure, Friendship, Family, Hurt/Comfort, and Action. I also have a serious mindset when it comes to developing ideas for the plot. Usually, I'll focus on Mario stories since it's my favorite video game series, but I have an interest in Sonic because of Sonic and Tails' relationship. I occasionally implement humor here and there, but I'm not the best at it. I'm also not great at writing romance either. Plus, you might notice some tidbits of OOC moments for the characters I write about.

For all stories on my profile, if you're interested in any of them, be sure to follow/favorite for updates, follow my profile for new story introductions, and leave reviews so I can receive feedback on whether you like them or not, or to help me improve my writing! A list of my completed and current fanfics are shown down below (under the next horizontal line and at the very bottom of my profile). Click any of the links to access a story!

One thing, though: Please do NOT leave flames. I only accept constructive criticism. Any spam and disrespectful comments might result in getting blocked by me. (No, I'm NOT kidding.)
