    Hello, everybody! My name is Viktoria Fyodorova, and I'm so happy to know that there is a website like Penana where I can share some of my favorite writing pieces! Ever since 4th grade, I've loved to write. Writing is the "Hakuna Matata" of my life. I forget all my worries when I write because I get so lost in my worlds and worlds from movies, books, and TV shows I love.

    My favorite genre to write is Fantasy, but I also like Fanfiction and the occasional Science Fiction.

    After fourteen years and eight drafts, I was officially published through South Carolina on October 8th, 2024. Currently, I'm writing a Coming-of-Age Fantasy, Claxton, about two fairies who embark on an epic quest to stop the heinous Octopus Man! It's been my passion project for 10+ years.

    I tragically lost my older brother in 2021, which left me with PTSD, but it also inspired my Scarlet and Violet fanfic, Infrared. For the longest time after he died, I thought I would never return to writing, but I did as a coping method for dealing with grief.

    I'm a 2022 Ambys Awards winner with my short story, Messummer, and a 2023 Ambys Award/Nano Watt Grand Winner with Infrared! I'm also a judge and reviewer because I love to help authors improve their craft. I never judge somebody based on their writing style because we all have our own.

    My favorite fandoms are Pokémon, Star Wars, HTTYD, and Harry Potter.

    I hope you enjoy the stories and fanfics I post on Penana. If you can, please give me tips on how to improve my writing.

|WATTPAD CREATORS PROGRAM · WEEKLY TO BI-WEEKLY UPDATES|

A troubled veteran attempts to forget the past by volunteering at Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum, but it proves difficult when he's close to the plane that changed his life forever—the Corsair.

***

Retired Navy pilot William Beckington never planned to move on after The Incident and has lived with the guilt for seventy years. After failed attempts with PTSD counselors, his daughter recommends that he begin volunteering on the aircraft carrier CV-10 in Charleston, South Carolina. Reluctantly, Bill agrees, but his decision proves difficult when he stumbles back into the world of Corsairs, the plane he'd rather forget.

Seeing that The Incident still haunts him, Bill's new friends attempt to help him remember his long-lost joy; he attends Bull Dog Tours, learns the stories of other veterans, and strangely finds himself near the Corsair more than he would like.

While nothing will free his mind from the traumatizing memory of accidentally shooting his friend down, Bill must find a way to push past his grief and guilt to live the life he is meant to live—and rekindle Ted's legacy before he succumbs.
