Hey there! I’m a first‑time fanfic writer finally taking the leap after years of thinking I wasn’t “good enough.” The last time I wrote anything substantial was back in 2012 for my former bank employer’s blog. A handful of people told me my writing was strong — but depression and anxiety convinced me otherwise, and I didn’t think I had what it took to strike out on my own.

This blog is my way of rewriting that story.I’m currently working on a Beverly Hillbillies alternative‑universe project set in the 1970s, following the newer adventures of the Clampett family.

Along the way, I’ve woven in life lessons, personal experiences, and the kind of humor and heart that made the original show special.

Here, I’ll be sharing:

Behind‑the‑scenes moments from my writing process — the fun, the chaos, and the unexpected inspiration

Snippets from my BH AU as I write them

Thoughts on anxiety and overthinking — and how storytelling helps me push back against both

I’m not here to “teach” writing. I’m here to share what I’m learning, celebrate the joy of creating something weird and wonderful, and hopefully give other anxious writers a little hope along the way.

If you’ve ever doubted your voice, I hope this space reminds you that you can still make something meaningful and fun.

Come and listen to my story, sit a spell, share your thoughts and I hope y'all keep coming back, ya hear?

Beverly Hillbillies AU – Season 10- Jethro's Still Cipherin'.

Characters: Jed Clampett, Elly May, Granny, Jethro, OC

Genre: Comedy, Action, Appalachian AU, Bollywood AU

Length: 80+k words

Summary:

Season 10 opens in 1971, and the Clampett mansion is buzzing with its usual mix of chaos and charm. But when Mr. Drysdale’s newest employee arrives; she expects a simple assignment and instead lands in the middle of raccoons, possum soup, and the Clampett's old-fashioned mountain hospitality.

It’s a fish‑out‑of‑water story, but with a twist: the clash between her orderly expectations and the Clampetts’ wild, homespun reality doesn’t unfold the way anyone assumes.

Snippet:

Jed opened the door with his usual “Howdy,” and a raccoon strutted past like it was late for work.

“Mr. Drysdale sent me,” the visitor explained.

Granny shoved a steaming bowl toward her. “Possum soup. Fresh.”

Visitor: "...that is very sweet… but no, thank you.”

Granny: "Well, why not?"

Visitor: "I… don’t eat meat.”

The Clampetts gasp like she just confessed to witchcraft.

Granny: “Well, land sakes… how are you still alive?”

Visitor (flustered): “Very carefully. Would you please excuse me for a minute?”
