I should be writing...

Jo, 33, she/her. I work in the audiobook industry by day, and write fanfic by.... well, not by night because I am a sleepy bitch, so I guess I just write when I don't have a book to proof, prep or direct. Send me a message if you are bored, want to brainstorm, or need a cheerleader. The majority of my fics are posted on Ao3 under ChocolateGate.

reblog if it's okay for your mutuals to message you and create an actual friendship, not just interactions

The worst part for me is that my job is literally reading/listening to other people read books, so it feels insane that I sometimes can't work on MY story because I have to work on someone else's story.

Now I want to make my bathroom butt themed....

[chocolategate]

Wrapped up chapter 3 of the fic I'm working on and went to put the word count at the top of it. I had 2,317. So, of course, I went in and added two more words.

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. 🧡🧡🧡

Thanks for sending me this ask, @pollydoodles. I had to think about it for a while because my initial instinct was not to share my old things.

Hmm... this is tricky since I haven't written in a while, but as far as my old stuff goes, and in no particular order:

1. Cotton Candy Grapes- This is a fic I wrote based around a few slutty little dreams I had about Bucky Barnes. It is also one I have current plans to continue and a whole picture of where it could go.

2. Liquor in the Front, Poker in the Rear- Wrote this for a Dreomione holiday challenge I think. I know HP has gotten very controversial because of old Jowling Kowling Rowling, but I still love this fic. It was the last fic I wrote before dropping off the face of the creative world for a handful of years.

3. The Taste of a Villain- This one is kind of off the wall, but it was a random idea I had for a challenge and I really like how it turned out. Lucas Lee is Chris Evans' character from Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.

4. The D Train- Now this one is a sex fantasy that used to feature heavily in my spank bank. Featuring Steve, Bucky, and Darcy, as it should.

5. Blowing Off Steam- I didn't quite realize it at the time I was trying to write this OC/Avengers fanfic, but this story was me trying to cope with and solve some major issues I was having around sex and sexuality. I rewrote it more than once, and never finished it, but I know now that it was because I didn't know how to actually solve the issues for myself. I do now, and I'm plugging away at rewriting this for the final time. I can't wait to share it when it is finished! I wasn't even too horrified when I recently went back to read it and see if it was something that still spoke to me. So that is a win.

So, there are my 5 favorite fics I have written. I haven't edited any of them with current eyes, so they aren't necessarily up to my current standard of writing, but that is okay. I hope in the future I will have more to choose from as I re-enter the world of writing fanfic.

you ever just hand things to ur pet to sniff so they can feel included

[chocolategate]

I hand Outside Dave mail I don't want sometimes. He always gently takes it from my hand and carries it to his bed and smells it and nibbles the edges a little. I also go lay by the front door with him sometimes and watch rabbits or birds or lizards run around outside. We always share our little life experiences.
