Terrence Shepardhide bio
 Author has written 3 stories for RWBY. I'm very bad at introductions, so...yeah. I'm a boring guy from North Carolina who, though some black sorcery, is now married to the most amazing woman on the face of the planet. I am an agonizingly slow writer, due to my job and home-life taking up most of my time (homeschooling an eight-year-old isn't as easy or fun as you would think). By the by, if you're wondering about the excessive swearing that tends to happen in my author's notes, as I stated above, I'm a parent. My day to day tends to build up a lot of stress, and I need an outlet. I find said outlet in the form of copious creative uses of the word 'fuck,' both in my writing and in real life. I guess if you want to know more about me, here ya go. Age: 30 (born in 1989, cuz I'm not fucking updating this every year) Gender/Sexual Orientation: Boring, straight, white male Occupation: Handyman, but I also moonlight as a father and husband on occasion. Favorite Movies/Shows: RWBY(obviously), Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul, Star Wars (fuck the new trilogy, Disney is doing a better job of ruining Star Wars than Jar Jar Binks), Walking Dead, South Park, among others. Favorite Music: Classic Metal and Rock. i.e. Metallica, Ozzy, KISS, AC/DC, Nirvana, you get the idea. However, the early 2000s angsty teen in me still has a soft spot for Three Days Grace and Suicide Silence (although, nowadays they make me want to cut my own ears off with a rusty fishing knife). Favorite Books/Authors: Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien, Ready Player One by Ernest Cline, and Steven King's The Green Mile are some of my top picks. Recently picked up Bram Stoker's Dracula, so that's pretty cool. Hobbies: I enjoy writing/reading most forms of literature, minus poetry. Movies and music are also good things that exist. And lately, I've taken up the weekly habit of going on evening walks through the park with my family and puppy. Political Views: I'm an "Idon'tgiveacrat." Favorite RWBY Characters: Qrow Branwen, Blake Belladonna, Winter Schnee, Roman Torchwick, Neo, and Adam Taurus (Don't hit me, please. I just love his whole aesthetic and his original goal of "equality by any means." Even if Miles and Kerry did turn him into a stupid jealous ex-boyfriend). |

Best Served Cold by HornetFreak reviews
Winter Schnee could remember hating her father since she was just a little girl. She knew that others shared her feelings, especially within the White Fang. Such a similarity between them should not have surprised her. What did though, was when she found herself offering aid to the terrorists, in the hopes of paying Jacques back. Revenge, it seems, is a dish best served cold.
