Helloooooo, beautiful people♪
The name's Tortwag, recently changed to TinkerTwaggy and sometimes, I am Shell Master Tortwag, because Shell Master's a really fun joke title to have when you're a big fan of reptiles, shelled stuff and shells. Y'know. The exploding kinds.
Incidentally, I also love weapons and robots.Been writing in SBs for quite some time, now, but I've never really shown any interest in making a StoryBook - only joining them and having a jolly good time after doing so, with both my creations and other people. Fantasy and science-fiction's mah jam, but to be fair, fantastic, urban fantasy, science fantasy and... pretty much any similar sub-categories are also things I like to write for. I can also do High Fantasy, but since it requires extensive research, expect me to be slow and precise.
Now, a couple of things about my character!
•You might see me end my sentences with "m'dear", from time to time. "m'dear" isn't meant to relate to age in any way, nor is it meant as something condescending. It is a translation to an expression I use in French for the sake of casualness, lightheartedness and just... general affection. Why French? Because French is my first language, m'dears!
Two info bits in one, ain't that beautiful.
•"Evolution", of a person, of a concept or of an item, is an idea that speaks to my heart, and you'll often see these themes appear in my writing. This also means that I can very easily have fun on my own, since my characters tend to have their own goals within a story I'm a part of. I also have a tendency to create NPCs (for myself or others).
•I don't really have a... limit, in terms of genre? I just need to find a concept I can tinker with, and then I'll join whatever is available. I suppose that realism and dystopias are usually things that I don't join, but even then it highly depends on the setting and established rules. Basically, I like following rules, and finding ways to fit into them without stopping to be who I am. So, uh, don't take me in if you don't want a deviant XD I can conform just fine, but since it's not my default setting, you'd have to be very explicit about it.
•I like coming up with suggestions and ideas, so I'll usually be the type to do so, both in public and in private (to avoid spoiling things, or if asked).
•"You can do whatever you want
"/"Go crazy!"/"Go nuts!" ←
↑ Yeeeah, avoid saying that to me XD
When I see that, I'll probably insist on asking whatever it is that you'd want/desire/prefer, and you should definitely give me some precision. It's better than having me doing whatever I want, since uh, haha, it... probably won't fit your reality.
Aaaand... Yeah, that's about it. Cheers to you all, m'dears, and have yourselves a fantastic time!
. I love writing science fiction and dystopia, in particular, although I also enjoy fantasy and might even write some realistic or contemporary fiction from time to time. I love storybooks because they give me a chance to collaborate with other writers and explore different ideas. I'm trying to become more active on the storybook front and step out of my comfort zone while also being mindful of my other time commitments, and I'm excited to step up my involvement in storybooks!
