I recently lost a friend to depression, and grief is urging me to DO something (there is so very little one CAN do, here) so I'm raising funds for mental health care in my country.
In exchange for donations to NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, I will write fic. Donation-to-wordcount amounts are:
$10 = 500 words (minimum) Example:
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the
Organization for Transformative Works
$15 = 1000 words (minimum) Example:
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the
Organization for Transformative Works
$20 = 1500 words (minimum)
$25+ = 2000 words (minimum) Example:
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the
Organization for Transformative Works
1. Visit www.nami.org and make a donation.
Please fill out the form to be "In memory of" Susan Hixson, and have the donation sent to my email address. List your Tumblr username for "Recipient" so I know who you are when I receive the email.
Please also check the box to cover processing fees, so that your full donation goes to NAMI.
2. Send me an ask (NOT anonymous!) here on Tumblr with the details of what you want to see in your fic. I would like to know:
What you'd like to see in the fic.
Please be as specific as you'd like, but bear in mind that there's only so much I can do within word-limits, so I'll do my best. Also, I don't really know what to do with T rating? So those'll probably end up more like G-rated, if that's what you request. 🙃
3. I'll DM you to let you know that I've received your ask, then when your fic is ready, I'll post it. Give me some time to write, please. I'll do my best to have your fic done as fast as I can.
I reserve the right to reject any requests, though I'm perfectly fine to take a replacement if you ask for something I'm uncomfortable writing.
Underage sexual situations
Homophobic/transphobic hate content
Watersports/scat/bloodplay
I mean. My assumption if you're participating is that you know my style and can guess what sort of things I write and don't write so. Yeah. That.
Participate if you can, please; if not, that's perfectly fine. And above all else, please remember: I love you. This world is genuinely better with you in it, and I am so glad you're in my corner of the world with me. 💜
