GreenCrystal19 here! I am a published writer, and an artist with five years of hands-on experience. I strive to create high-quality art and writing: usually crossovers for Percy Jackson and the Olympians/Heroes of Olympus/Trials of Apollo and Harry Potter. I post art (and fanart!) on my other pages online. Feel free to hop on over there and check it out. Also wolves and dragons are cool. Pronouns: She/Her

I do not swear in my stories, and I do my best to avoid OOC (out of character) as well; though I may temporarily cross the line for that one joke or funny comment that I can't resist adding...

And, USUALLY, I do not mess with canon ships.

Enjoy the stories!

Writing Advice:

-Grammar—basic grammar is important, as it looks and feels more professional and also helps readers clearly understand what is going on. However, remember that a good 75% of grammar rules are thrown out when writing dialogue or even internal monologue; people simply do not talk and think with perfect grammar in daily life.

-Let the characters make some decisions and be who they want to be—I find that many times, I'm writing along and find myself adding dialogue or actions that will change the entire plot. If you find that your characters want to start an argument, take a risk, or make a decision, don't stop them—sometimes your story will have a mind of its own, and going with what your gut tells you can lead to some really fun and original ideas. (As well as looking for inspiration from anywhere—even dreams. I have quite vivid dreams, so I get a lot of ideas from those.)

-Keep the tension high—in your story, you must utilize all the tools at your disposal, including tension. A story full of action and with high stakes keep the pages turning (the the fingers scrolling). If you think it's getting a bit slow or boring, just drop something crazy and unexpected in—anything from an abrupt and pushy question, an argument, or even a death. Why not? You can always justify it later and work it into your plot.

-Read like a writer, write like a reader—this is one of the best pieces of advice I've found. Thanks, Writer's Digest. Of course, if you're the type to get really immersed in a book, that's fine. But when rereading/after you finish a few chapters, analyze the tools the author uses to make their story interesting. If it's boring or not a good story, find out why so you can avoid making the same mistakes. And when writing, enter the mindset of a reader—would they expect that plot twist? Is it boring? Confusing? The second part takes a bit of time to master, but for me, reading like a writer is pretty easy, LOL. Or at least...rereading.
