Interesting Facts About My Writing
1.) I often begin stories, write approximately 30-40 pages, then abandon them. This is mainly due to the fact that I have the attention span of a goldfish.

2.) To counter number one, I often have many stories going at once (usually 2-3 large scale along with one-shots of inspiration) so I can hop between stories and still have progress on something. Encouragement (AKA threats) also helps me stay on track.

3.) I like to write about what I already know or what I want to know. For example, while writing Mangekyou I am learning a ridiculous amount of info on Japan. I also write stories about human introspection and emotions.

4.) I am inspired by everything, especially for one shots. One of my stories was based on a hospital visit, another by a song, and another by a combo of Naruto and Ninjutsu classes.

5.) The formatting on Fictionpress hates me and inevitably something always gets messed up when I upload a story. I’ll try and fix the screw-ups as I find them.
