ANY WAY THE WIND BLOWS @andonewillbringhisfall - Tumblr Blog

I remember reading your snowbaz fics as they came out!! they’re all still some of my faves, and I love your writing, do you think you’ll ever write more?

Thank you anon, it means a lot to me that you still remember me!! I don't think I would ever write more fic, I haven't felt the urge to do so in years so I think it's just not something I'm interested in doing anymore. But I miss it and I cherish the experiences I had on here.

#ask #anon #i still write original content and i still hope to publish novels someday #but i don't have the time for that to be my main focus now sadly

In case you missed it, I have a new book of short stories coming out on Nov. 8 called SCATTERED SHOWERS.

It looks like this:

It’s a complete collection of my short stories, nine stories total, including five brand new ones.

A few of the stories are about existing characters, and one of the longer stories is about Simon and Baz. It’s called “Snow for Christmas.” The book has illustrations by Jim Tierney. Here’s a teaser:

This story takes place AFTER Any Way the Wind Blows.

It features:

holiday fun

wingtalk

Mordelia

and Sophie

and Petra

and Swithin

cake

more cake

caketalk

wardrobe strategy

🎁🎁🎁

an opportunity for me to break them up and wreak havoc, but don’t worry, I wouldn’t do that in a short story; I’m not actually a chaos demon

origin stories

more than one kiss

I’m honestly not sure whether this is will be the end of me writing Simon and Baz. The last TEN YEARS have shown that I’m very bad at closing the book on them.

Preorder Scattered Showers here.

Or order a signed copy from my local indie.

#oKAY!#intrigued by origin stories #also based on the siblings being present i guess this is with the grimm-pitches but also consider. simon family christmas 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺#also yaaaas. i love mordelia

I'm in a book club and for December's meeting we did a book themed craft gift exchange, I wrote down Carry On as one of my favourite books and this is what my person made:

#how cool is this!!#i don't think shes read the book but she nailed it #also most of the crafts were more generally book themed so i thought it was extra nice that this was so specific to me

Hello! Here's another sequential based on the Simon Snow trilogy books by @rainbowrowell. This one is a scene from Wayward Son in Chapter 21 when Simon and Baz are messing around with foam swords at a renaissance fair during their trip to America.

Thanks to the patient Snowbaz fans who leave very kind comments on my previous Simon Snow fanart, hope you enjoy this one!

#ahhhhh this is amazing!!

OH AND every time Baz called Daphne Mum.... on par with how I felt when he cast the family spell on Penny in WS

I can't believe we never get answers to why Simon is now immune to magic

#awtwb spoilers #hello??? what does it all mean?? and is it forever???#side note i THOROUGHLY enjoyed the entire smith smith-richards storyline it had SUCH carry on vibes #and was also just so interesting!! like the entire concept of new people claiming to be the chosen one because that would totally happen!!!

Oh and I'm DYING to know more about Lucy's portrait in the Catacombs. Why is it there???? The Mage is the ONLY person in the entire world who knows what happened to her - so either he put it there or it showed up there by magic - there's no other explanation - but why????? I don't think the Mage would go down there or would create such a thing but why would it magickally appear, and why there of all places? (Also, I'm dying to know if Rainbow knew all along that it was Lucy, like since she wrote carry on, or if she just found that random detail years later and thought of making it part of the story)

So in 2011 I went to London because I wanted to see my book Attachments on the shelf in another country, and I got to do a reading at this bar, and an assistant from my literary agency was there. He was wearing pinkish-red pants, and he was kind of drunk. He was teasing me about how I should name a character after him. So I said, “Okay, I will. What’s your last name?” And he said, “Wellbelove.” And I thought, “Are you fucking kidding me? I’m naming EVERY character after you.”

#thank you for this information

IT’S HERE! (At my house anyway.) My next post will be photos of Any Way the Wind Blows from every angle. But first I just wanted to show you how it looks next to its siblings. IT’S A CHONK.

#IT IS SUCH A CHONK #cant believe how soon it is #also still dying to know when signed copies will be on dftba #omg this book is so thick

the last time you posted a fic was 2018 😔 seeing that made me feel the passage of time so deeply, I miss your fics

😔 wow I did not realise it's been 3 years since I wrote one... I have so much nostalgia and fondness for those times and I truly to this day appreciate everyone who ever read them and made the whole experience what it was

#it brought me so much joy!!#ask #anon

Day 22 - Unlikely Friends

Underneath the picture, someone has taped in a few snapshots. "Look," I say, pointing at a photo of a girl sitting against a tree-the yew tree. She's got mad dark hair with a blond streak, and she's grinning with her nose crunched up and her tongue between her teeth. There's a rawboned boy sitting next to her with his arm slung around her shoulders. "Ebb," I say. Because the straight blond hair is the same. And the cliff's-edge cheekbones. But I've never seen Ebb looking so cocksure of herself—and I can't imagine her smirking like that.

Under the picture, someone's written Me and Nickels, and dotted the i with a heart.

"Fiona!" Baz says, snapping the book closed.

- Carry On, @rainbowrowell
