A Watch That Doesn't Tell Time

Thanks For Reading

I want to say thank you to all who took the time out of their lives to read this book. It really means a lot that you took this journey with me and decided to give my writing a chance

This book started as an escape from the MHA one. At one point I got so overwhelmed by the praise and how many people loved the book, that I felt like I couldn't meet those expectations

Then I made this one, a small group enjoyed it, and then I just kept writing. Not because I felt like I had to, but because I enjoyed it

I can't say I'm completely proud of the writing in this book. I know my pacing needs work, some misspells here and there, and sometimes I don't give certain characters the attention they deserve (Hence why you had to die in the second to last chapter, sorry about that) or they act out of character

I write everything on my phone, and usually at night so it's kinda hard to keep myself from getting tired and making shortcuts to get things over with. But despite that, you all made it to the last chapter

I won't say I will go all the way to Omniverse(I plan to, but you never know what happens in the future), but I'm definitely going to go as far as I can with Y/N and everyone. I don't know when Alien Force will come out, but I'm definitely going to take my time with it, so I can give you guys something of quality

I've also learned my lesson on releasing a book without having chapters lined up so scheduling doesn't delay the book, so that'll also come into factor on the release date

Anyway, I appreciate and thank God that he brought you here, I'll let you all know when AF comes out. Expect to see Y/N, Gwen, and William have even more adventures in the future

That aside, I don't really have much else to say so if you have any questions, leave them here and I'll get to them when I can(If you have any that is)

As a small token of my appreciation, I'm going to write some behind-the-scenes stuff from here on out. If you don't feel like reading all of that, then I bid you adieu

Originally, it was going to be Ben having the Omnitrix and then you'd tag along and get one of your own. Not the Ultimatrix like you usually see, but if you remember the Cybermatrix that William had in that alternate timeline, then that's what you would've had

It was a cool concept in my head. I might revisit it. I don't know

What changed all of that though, was that I was reading two Omnitrix reader books at the time, and I realized something...

ALMOST EVERYONE HAS BEN GET AN OMNITRIX WITH YOU!

And that annoyed me because... Why would you sideline your own character like that?

In my unprofessional opinion, the whole point of a reader insert/oc insert, is to give off the feeling as if they are the main character

Anytime I read one where Ben and the insert got an Omnitrix, either Ben was gender-bent (I'm not taking a shot at people who enjoy gender bends, I sometimes enjoy those kinds of books too if they're done well) or he took all the spotlight while the insert was basically a Gary Stue

If you don't know what that is, it's essentially someone who's perfect in every way and without much reason to it other than "I'm just better than everyone around me"

Think of a depressed! Male reader, just without the depression

Now, the one where it was just Y/N with the Omnitrix, was way better to me

Granted, it was a Multiverse fanfic, but it was still an Omnitrix reader nonetheless

The Y/N had personality, flaws, and goals that weren't just "I'm just along for the ride". So I tried to emulate that in my own way. Hopefully, I did a good job, I think I did
