some crazy good fanfic in my google docs. whatever guy started writing it i hope he finishes it
Reblog this and let people send you asks (anonymously or not) about how they would describe your fics, your writing style or just anything they've thought about when reading your work
I wish you would write a fic where...
Send me an anymous (or not) summary of the fic you wish I would write. (maybe I will write a tidbit)
📊🤔🧠? :D
📊 - Current number of WIPs
god i honestly cannot tell you i have no idea and my docs are a mess
🤔- What is the hardest part of writing fic?
not calling it done at 1000 words sobs i don’t like not being able to finish a fic in a day which is ridiculous because it’s like, a given that it will take longer than a day unless it’s a very short fic which i like writing but i also want to write longficcccc i wanna write something big :( without it taking a long time to finish.
🧠 - What's an idea you have that you can't quite call a WIP yet?
i was thinking last night about Jin Guangyao and what he would do if he time traveled back to his teens because there’s some things that i think he would do VERY differently with all the knowledge he had by the end of the novel, but at the same time i think he’s a character that would be very aware of how much small things can cause a ripple effect, and with how instrumental he was to the sunshot campaign…would he risk the wen winning the war? would he risk changing things early on, thereby losing his advantage of foresight? would he be able to not change things, with all the humiliations he went through the first time? probably it’ll never get to WIP phase because i wouldn’t have the patience to stick with it, much less the skill to pull it off in a way i’d be happy with, but it’s been a lot of fun to “plan” it anyway
oh fuck i just realized that would make a great choose your own adventure fic

It’ll be difficult, but I think I can make it at least readable
Probably not, but I’ll try for the giggles
Nope. No way. Not even trying.

Tips for Writing Injuries
✧ Broken ribs suck. You don’t just “walk it off.” Breathing hurts. Laughing hurts. Existing hurts. Characters with rib injuries won’t be doing heroic sprints.
✧ Concussions aren’t instant naps. Dazed vision, nausea, dizziness, maybe even personality changes, but they’re not going to collapse neatly like in the movies.
✧ Blood loss is sneaky. It’s not just about dramatic pools of blood. It’s dizziness, confusion, and the body getting cold as circulation tanks.
✧ Adrenaline lies. Someone can take a serious injury and not feel it until the fight’s over. That “I didn’t realize I was bleeding until later” trope? Very real.
✧ Twisted ankles are brutal. One bad step and suddenly running is off the table. Even walking hurts like hell. Perfect way to ground a chase scene.
✧ Burns linger. Even small burns hurt more than most people expect. Blisters, infection risk, constant pain, it’s not just a cool scar later.
✧ Dislocated shoulders = useless arm. Characters can’t keep swinging a sword or firing a gun. They’re basically fighting one-armed until it’s fixed.
✧ Shock is a thing. Pale skin, trembling, rapid heartbeat, and eventually disorientation. A character might not even realize how bad their wound is.
✧ Stitches aren’t magic. Getting sewn up is painful and recovery takes time. They’re not instantly battle-ready after a needle and thread.
✧ Scars tell stories. Some fade, some don’t. Some stay sensitive forever. Don’t forget the aftermath when the wound becomes part of the character.

Join the transfic exchange with me!
If you’re into fic featuring trans characters, there’s a low-key exchange now open for sign up. Lots of fandoms, lots of characters, lots of interesting tags. I’m hoping to boost the numbers of participants in the fandoms I’m interested in, for purely altruistic reasons of course. I’ll be offering The Left Hand of Darkness, due South, Ted Lasso and maaaaybe the Terror and I Saw the TV Glow but no promises on the last two. I’m also requesting Conclave because I’m a hoor for Lawritez but I can’t write Catholicism with any authenticity whatsoever lol.
But yeah, I’d love to see you there, I’d love to pump up the numbers on trans fics in these fandoms, and I’m really looking forward to reading what comes out!
I'm also planning to sign up for this, if you're wondering who nominated like 7 permutations of trans Maemag. Check it out!
Join us! Check out the many available fandoms! Weirdly high proportion of Buffyverse sign ups, which I think is so cool!
I signed up offering Ted Lasso with transfem or NB Trent, due South with Miss Fraser, and the Left Hand of Darkness with, you know, my best friend Estraven. I requested all those plus NB Benitez from Conclave. This is your chance to get a fic tailored to your tastes from me, or possibly to write for me, you never know.
Sign ups close May 10, assignments out May 12, and works due June 16.

surprise, i wrote an alien stage fic
Fic that appears to be an AU where the characters have a little low stakes meet cute and are having a sweet little romance, only for it to be revealed that no, this is in-universe and they both have amnesia and all the other characters are trying to find them and are losing their fucking shit
Fanfiction Writers!
Have you ever?
been officially published? (fiction or non-fiction)?
had an artist create art for one of your fics (unprompted/noncommissioned)?
had one of your fics translated into another language?
had one of your fics on someone's 'fic rec' list?
had multiple of the above choices? (tell us in the tags!)
had none of the above choices?
Hey! You forgot... (tell us in the tags!)
Since my teens, when I started openly dating other women, I have fielded (mostly from men) the rude but “innocent” question of how two women have sex. The implication being that sex includes penetration by a penis, that this act is the culmination of all the lesser acts that precede it. Perhaps the biggest inherited narrative about sex that I’ve had to undo in myself is that default defining of all sex as related to hetero sex. Back then, no matter how I explained it, the askers of that question frowned. How sad, their faces seem to say, that you’ve never ever gotten past third base. How sad, I’d now like to reply, that you’ve been trapped on a baseball diamond for all of your sexual life.
Show us what your sex is, what your characters’ sex is. Maybe you, too, have been defining it in relationship to heterosexual models that have nothing to do with your own desire, or that of your characters. This might be hardest for straight people, who have the greatest number of inherited stories to wade through. Discover it in the writing; I often have. The beauty is that we don’t have to agree on this. When I was a dominatrix, I once rubbed balloons all over a man for seventy-five dollars. He would’ve called it sex. I called it work. It was mutually consensual, and I think we were both correct in our assessment.
If your sex is balloons, if it is blowing raspberries on your lover’s belly, if it happens fully clothed or in furry costumes, if it happens in a group or alone—give it the same gravity, the same reverence or irreverence as all of the tiresome dick-chafing scenes we all grew up reading. In the world of your writing, no sex is a punch line unless you make it one. There is no marginal erotic unless you sideline it.
