so like….. is the beatles fandom experiencing some kind of come back right now? why are my notifs blowing up???

“When you witness the joyful eye contact between Paul and John, as they harmonize, you can also see the rage smolder on George’s face. (No poker player, Harrison.) No wonder this is the song that pissed him off; it must have been agonizing to feel blocked out of that John/Paul duet. Everybody else on earth treats George like a world-class artist, including peers like Dylan and the Band. But the Beatles still treat him like a little kid.” — Rob Sheffield, Rolling Stone Get Back review

anyone else get embarrassed when their self indulgent daydreams are like too self-indulgent? like oh jeez the telepaths are going to judge me

[yallstillhere]

I’m tired of y'all reblogging this every Sunday

[yallstillhere]

One of you shit heads are saving this post and waiting until Sunday to reblog it

I will fucking find you

[kalypsichor]

Hi, you were really blessed with talent, I just discovered your writing a few weeks ago and... woah! Just really amazing. Anyways, since I've already read most of your stuff (yup ^^), do you have any other authors who write about the Beatles who you'd recommend? Peace and love 🌼💕✌️

hello! you’re so sweet, thank you :D i absolutely love @casafrass who actually inspired me to get into writing. also, @spaceyantique has absolutely lovely writing- she collabed with me on the five’s a crown series- so you should check her out too! 

much love

[kalypsichor]

I know you’re on a hiatus but I just want to tell you that I frickin love your Ringo fics and I routinely come back to reread them every so often. Embraceable You is by far one of my favorites of all time 💛

cas this has absolutely made my day :) it’s been hard getting back into writing with uni absolutely killing me but sometimes i’ll come back and just look at y’all’s comments and reblogs and things and.... it makes my life just that much more bearable. thank you, cas, and everyone that still follows my rather dead acc!

i do wanna start writing again but i’m not sure what or how. i was thinking about starting a personal lil blog where i post things about my day, poetry (i write quite a bit of it), and other creative projects... would anyone be interested in that at all? i’d like to do it regardless of interest because writing can be cathartic but... i dunno, i’m just trying to love writing again. thanks to everyone who’s made my journey so fun :))))

Masterpost: Starstruck

Brian May x Fem!Reader

This is the masterpost for a fic I’m working on. It also has some general info.

Prologue / Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3 / Part 4 / Part 5 / Part 6 / Part 7 / Part 8 / Part 9 / Part 10 / Part 11 / Part 12 / Part 13 / Part 14

updates every Saturday at 22:00 GMT

‧⁺˚*･༓☾ ☽༓･*˚⁺‧

Pairing: Brian May x Fem!Reader

Summary: When studying at Imperial College in the 1970s, your path is crossed by a beautiful boy as much in love with the stars as you.

Setting: Imperial College London, late 1974 through 1975. You’re good friends with three young men named Freddie, Roger, and John. You share a class with Brian but do not know him well… yet.

Warnings: the fact that I write John Deacon’s nickname as ‘Deacy’ (don’t yell at me; that’s how Brian spells it), swearing, an innuendo here or there but nothing much, slight angst, reader has occasional feelings of worthlessness/self-deprecation, so slow burn you’ll want to kill me if I write it well :’)

A note on the historical inaccuracies of the story will precede each chapter, but for now, here are—

Some General Historical Inaccuracies:

Queen was touring the world for Sheer Heart Attack during most of 1975

‘Killer Queen’ had topped charts; Queen were therefore at this point quite a bit more famous than what I make them out to be

Freddie and Roger likely did not have their stall in Kensington Market (a building which also no longer exists) any longer

John went to Chelsea College in London, which is now a sector of King’s College London

Brian and Chrissie Mullen were together during the 1970s and had been since the late 1960s, oops

This fic will be rather lengthy, with each chapter, aside from the prologue, being between 3k and 6k words, but like I said, this is slow burn. Veeeery slow.

It is also, for the time being, uncompleted. There will be about 20 chapters in total.

Anyway. Enjoy the fic, and be sure to let me know what you think!
