/wiki/Winter-Raecreator

Winter-Rae is one of the most prolific writers in the Total Drama community, as well as short stories in other fandoms. She is most known for Crack Pairing, sometimes called "The Queen of Fanon," as she was the major beginning of influencing Fanon in the TD community. Her first one-shot came out early November '08, and is still doing fanon one-shots to this day. Many writers of TD fanfiction credit and mention her, as she has been a big influence in all kinds of Fanon, as well as writing positive, kind-hearted stories that influence many others.

Winter's most favorite, and well-known, couples that she has inspired are LeDunca (Leshawna and Duncan), Bridgold (Bridgette and Harold), and Gwyler (Gwen and Tyler). She has written many, many more couples.

Her fanfiction profile is here, where you can read all of her work.

Winter-Rae provides examples of the following tropes:
  • Berserk Button - One of the very few ways to get on Winter-Rae's nerves is to make Leshawna a villain or Out of Character; it was her primary reason for hating Total Drama Action.
  • Creator Thumbprint - Her favorite pairing, Leshawna/Duncan, is in almost every single story she has done.
    • And there is no story she has done without Fanon.
  • Doorstopper - She has done over fifty stories, one-shots and multi-chaptered, in the course of over three years.
  • Fix Fic - Her longest story, I'm On Your Side, is a remake of Total Drama Action.
  • Friendship Moment - Plenty.
  • Hurt/Comfort Fic - Only the latter, and it's one of her specialities.
  • Jerkass With a Heart of Gold - Duncan, in many of her stories.
  • Odd Friendship - Eva and Bridgette are usually friends in her stories, despite the former not liking the latter at all in Canon.
  • Pitbull Dates Puppy - Done sometimes, but mostly with the couple she wrote about in her very first one-shot, Eva/Harold.
  • Sickeningly Sweethearts - How Harold and Bridgette come across in her stories, usually called that by the others.
  • Ship Tease - If they are not paired, there are usually some little hints.
  • Take That - Against Twilight several times.
  • What Does She See in Him? - A story theme in several of her stories, namely with Duncan and/or Justin.
