Greetings Fellow Readers and Writers

Yes, I have indeed altered my name a bit. My real name, as you might have guessed if you have been reviewing my work, is Stephen Webb. I am only an average person who is capable of accomplishing great things, as all humans are. I do not believe that I write the best or that I even write it. I do not influence writing, writing influences me. Anyway, I'm gonna stop talking like a prophet and tell all of you what I'm really about.

First of all, I got to install my little two sense on how great writing is. I'm not going to do that simply because it is impossible to list all of the feelings writing gives me. Writing is known for inducing creativity, nostalgia, and intrigue. It is obviously a major source of food for your brain. As you read, you devour information ravenously, such as a predator. Writing does help me cope with my stress and it has relieved all the tension that I have ever felt. That is one of the reasons I love it so much.

Technically, we all start writing when we are really young and I agree that I was writing but then again I wasn't. Back then I couldn't really grasp words like I can now. I didn't really start thinking about writing as a career until I was in 9th grade (the best year, socially and academically, of school for me)When I write, I don't feel as if I'm just writing words on paper. I feel like I'm creating something worthwhile that will be around forever. My mind works in mysterious ways when I write. Poetry has always made me think of the next word to put down, careful to have it adjust perfectly to the rhyming scheme. Don't ask me how I do it! It's just the immense vocab. that I seemingly acquire and I can't help it, I love to learn new words. I've also seen my writing as more of an introspective part of myself. It is a major stress reliever and has saved me from starting a scuffle or two.

As of now, I am a fiction writer, going through my samurai/swordsman phase (don't worry, not every story involves swordsman). Right now, I am currently devising a possible manga and a chronically massive series about a swordsman who inherits power from the Gods and his sons and descendants. The series is called Generations and is bound to be a hit once I complete it. I still got a long way to go, but it is what is to be expected of an aspiring author and novelist. Later, I plan to get into nonfiction and romance (if later ever comes, lol).

Some of my hobbies serve as my inspiration for my writing. I love to study vocab. and read books that make me look into a dictionary. There are so many words that others tend to neglect. I just learned this really cool word called pugnacious, which means combative or constantly wanting to fight. I think I will use it to describe one of the characters in my story. I also enjoy watching anime' or japanese animation, very much. My favorite one is called Rurouni Kenshin and is about a ronin in the historical Meiji Era who is known for helping bring in the new era of peace. I like it because it is historical and it inspired me to write the Generation series. Also, life is a big inspiration to not only me, but other writers, as well. It gives me more material to incorporate in my work.

I respect all written work, so even if one's work sucks, I'm not gonna say it does. I always try to take my time when I write and it all comes out perfect like that. I like to be optimistic to others and pessimistic to myself most of the time. Please, keep an eye on my work and give me constructive criticism if it needs touching up. If you love it, just say you do. That is how an editor really does it.

Expect me to accomplish big things in writing because if everything works out, I will publish my series and many others books. Hopefully, one day you'll see a book on a shelf in a shop with the author's name Stephen Webb. Until then, I shall remain in your thoughts as Lonewriter Webb.
