Wildbow
John C. McCrae, known online as Wildbow, is the creator of the Parahumans series as well as the Pact universe (a modern supernatural setting) and Twig. He maintains a blog where he discusses his writing, as well as regularly interacting with fans online. He's occasionally active on Wikia as [[1]].
Background
Wildbow has been writing since the seventh grade. He studied English and Applied Linguistics in university.<ref name=":0">Wildbow's user profile on Worm Wiki</ref> He's been outspoken about his experiences growing up hard of hearing, with the use of a cochlear implant.[citation needed]
Web Serials
McCrae has written five online serials, each comparable to a series of books:
He began writing web serials as a way to encourage himself to follow a schedule and stick with a project long-term.<ref name=":0" /> Wildbow has followed much the same update schedule since the beginning of Worm, with essentially no breaks - a chapter posted every Tuesday and Saturday, with regular bonus chapters.
Other Projects
Wildbow has written a number of short "teasers" or "warmups" for potential web serials, some of which are viewable on his blog.<ref>Pig's Pen - Snippets & Samples</ref>
Wildbow interacts regularly with his own fandom, and this has extended to helping with or running interactive role-playing games, writing considerable amounts of original content for his settings in the process. These include Weaverdice, PRT: Department Sixty-Four, PHO Sunday, and (for Pact) Pact Dice.
Wildbow has been involved in several projects to adapt his works into other media, but thus far they have all fallen through. He's stated that he's reluctant to make early announcements about such projects as a result.[citation needed]
