This is very nice to stumble upon! I write professionally now, but it's always lovely to see that my fanfics are still appreciated.

Drop me a vote if you like!

sometimes I forget how much people hate my novel-writing syntax outside of actual novels

“Lots of legwork to be done about interviewing the tenants as well before we can even pinpoint a suspect, I assume,” he stated with a nod. "It’s unfortunate that this had to interrupt your date, Fräulein Detective.”

She sighed, making a mental note of how comfortable Klavier’s jacket really was. The gigs from his musical career paid seriously well if he could afford to wear something like this on a regular basis. "No, I’d much rather be here than where I was,” she replied testily, “even if working in heels sucks.”

~Titration, Chapter 3: I Did It For Science, HawkofNavarre

For this week, I’ll be collaborating with @sylsnon to illustrate a couple of scenes from one of our favourite Klema fics of all time, Titration! It’s been years since it was complete, but it still has a special place in our hearts <3 Klema fans, do head over and have a look at the fic! The writing is absolutely amazing!

[hawkofnavarre]

wait this is my fic?????

wow, such beautiful work 😭 i love fandom. thanks, y’all! please keep enjoying Titration!

And so another manga ends. Attack on Titan...

honestly ended exactly how I expected. Eren just being a giant asshole conflicted so much with his character in the first half of the manga, I knew there was no way he could just be straight up evil. Turning himself into a visible villain for the betterment of the world (OH WAIT, WHERE HAVE I SEEN THIS PLOT BEFORE?! SURELY IT WASN’T PART OF AN EVEN WORSE ENDING OF A CERTAIN MANGA!) was the only way I could see this playing out.

The extremely poor execution, on the other hand, is a completely separate issue. “Heeee guys, I’m gonna tell u my entire plan and then erase ur memories k? But u’ll remember when I’m gone! luv u guys kthxbai!!” Just...no. I understand that Isayama needed a way to get Eren’s motivations out there, but was this really all he could think of?! Give him a diary or something, goddamn it. Even that would’ve been better than this.

Welp, either way, it’s over and I’d kind of lost any emotional attachment to this manga long ago anyway. It’s just too bad that it wasn’t better when the manga started out so strong.

Shout-out to everyone whose own fanfics live rent free in their minds

[hawkofnavarre]

still can’t believe that my penname, which i established 13 years ago, is coming back into relevance on April 24, 2020. never in my wildest dreams did i think that would happen (albeit with slightly different translations, but whatever)

[hawkofnavarre]

welp, Possession somehow has passed 6000 favourites and it still boggles me that a fic I started writing more than 9 years ago is somehow this popular

thanks, Fairy Tail fandom

[hawkofnavarre]

so this entire time, the big reveal about SnK is that everything happened because of some weird-ass time compression shit that was already done in FFVIII? i hate to say it, but i was really expecting something different

[hawkofnavarre]

I feel strangely comforted by the GoT fandom blowing up because those things could never happen because it’s such bad writing. and yet they did. yup, that’s how that feels

[hawkofnavarre]

Hello! I just wanted to drop you a quick message because I felt like I needed to tell you that you were my favorite fic author years ago. I found you I believe during middle school and I’m now in college lol My anime phase ended but I’ve never forgotten your name or the stories that I read by you! I’m happy you’re still writing and hope you’re doing well!

Aww, thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed reading my stories. To know that my writing has been so memorable to you is such a high compliment!

I hope you’re doing well too! Good luck with college!

[hawkofnavarre]

just wanted to come out here and tell y’all ya girl won NaNoWriMo and this newfound writing power i have is real

[hawkofnavarre]

Obligatory update before NaNoWriMo. See y’all in a couple months

Konomi-sensei has posted previews for the latest NPOT chapters in his twitter account, and they bring exciting news! (and visuals)

The main body of his tweet has him promoting when the chapter comes out (Golden Age 249), but the most important part is the chapter title, which is entitled “Boyfriend” (thank you @candarella for translating again! )

Golden Age 249 comes out on Nov 2 ✨

Fic authors, ever wanted to hold your story in your hand like a published book? Well, I did some digging and I found a way to! The company just prints a single book, no editing, no marketing, no putting it on any official published book lists, so there’s no copyright issues here. It’s not publishing. It’s just printing like an actual book. Pretty cheap too, as far as I was able to see! So yeah! Go hold your fic in your hand as an actual book! I plan on doing it!

[jayalaw]

Nice!

[kaylapocalypse-deactivated20201]

I HAVE WAITED MY WHOLE LIFE FOR THIS IM GONNA PRINT SO MANY FAN FICS FOR MYSELF

[eveninglottie]

O_O

Oh.

Oh no.

[88thparallel]

I was LITERALLY just coming to Tumblr to make a post and show my newly bound published fic-book! I used Lulu.com - it was less than $7!!

[hawkofnavarre]

i feel personally victimized by SnK today

[hawkofnavarre]

Lucy,

I found your letter in Hargeon's harbour and I want you to know that I'm going to help you. My friend Yukino has your keys. She's a Celestial Spirit Mage so she'll take good care of them. We talked to your spirit Aquarius too. I think she's worried about you, but she'll be okay because I'm going to find you.

Aquarius told us you have a key for Canis Minor, so we're giving this letter to Yukino's bug thing and hoping he'll find yours. We know your name and if you're reading this, now you know ours. If you get this, write us back. We'll find you. I promise.

"Na...tsu...?" she said out loud. It was the name signed at the bottom of the note, the person who claimed she would save her.

In bigger letters for those in the back:

As a critiquer, your job is not to “make this piece of writing better” but to understand what the writer wants to achieve and help them to achieve it

[notactuallyaduck]

Applies beyond writing as well.
