Not me asking my husband if he knows of a Prime offer so that I can watch off campus just because I saw a gif set of a side pairing
My stupidly sweet husband got prime for a month and I watched it in 3 days. It was fun! But not obsession worthy, which is a good thing right now.
writers, instead of asking ai for help, you can always use your childhood trauma and repressed issues to help you with that fic

Was excited to see you posted your older everlark drabbles from tumblr on AO3 as I wasn't around in the fandom then. Can't wait to read them! Your most recent everlark, Best of Three, is one of my favorite high school aus ever! It's so sweet and hot! Do you have any plans to write more everlark?
Hi anon! Thank you, I hope you enjoy them - I have to confess that the drabble collection is a result of (a) rediscovering my google drive after almost 10 years, (b) wanting to salvage what was on there so that I can delete the files and also recover what was on my old laptop so that I can dispose of that and (c) wanting to get my fic in one place.
Another confession: I fully intended to write more Everlark when I read Sunrise on the Reaping in April. Not because that story inspired me, but more that it made me feel like everything had come full circle and I wanted to finish a couple of ongoing fics. But then I read The Empyrean series while on holiday and became obsessed. And then I needed something to distract me from the book hangover with that and started reading other fantasy romance series and enjoying them, namely The Mages of the Wheel and The Bridge Kingdom. And somehow I wrote 3000 words last night for the latter which I know no one is going to read because there are only like 5 fics on AO3 for the series but I wanted to write it anyway.
I am having a horrible time at work at the minute, and escaping into books and fandom is really helping. But Iāve let my life admin slip and need to find a balance. Sorry, Iām rambling. My desire to finish my Everlark stories still remains, and is probably greater now that Iāve found other unfinished stories on my G drive and laptop. However, I need to balance that with my interest in reading other book series, needing to not let the life admin pile up and generally not go too far with the escapism.
TLDR; I have plans to write/complete Everlark stories, I just canāt commit to when they might happen. But itās great that the fandom is so active right now and there are lots of great writers out there to feed readers and in turn be fed with kudos and comments š
The Twisted Throne (The Bridge Kingdom Series) by Danielle L. Jensen
"Welcome to Harendell."
my fave writing reminder
honestly, this phrase has been on my mind more times than i can count. i've kidnapped it, taken it as a hostage with no ransom money because i need it to live permanently in my head.
This works for everything by the way - school work, university assignments, resignation letters, fanfics, original novels. Everything.
Fic:
A Question of You - Chapter 1 - purple_cube - The Empyrean - Rebecca Yarros [Archive of Our Own]
The Empyrean series (Fourth Wing), primarily Dain/Sloane, rated E. Contains spoilers for Fourth Wing, Iron Flame and Onyx Storm.
This is the story that has taken over my life for the last three weeks. Includes Sloane/Aaric and Sloane/OMC in Chapter 1, and then it's five chapters of Dain/Sloane smut with plot I never asked for but insisted on being added anyway.
i love having the hubris to go 'sure i'll try that, how hard can it be' about every creative skill under the sun. jack of all trades master of shit fuck but who says you have to be a master??? maybe i want to sew a mediocre plushie and code a janky mod and write a bland song. im having fun. im in my lane. im learning and im thriving.
I got rejected from a job position with my previous employer :(
Focussing on two fictional idiots in love is resulting in me handling the news better than I otherwise would.
Posting to keep myself accountable:
Iām writing an Empyrean series fanfic, Dain/Sloane. Iām at 12,000 words of this nonsense and I canāt wait to complete it and get out of my head.
Readers, brace yourselves, says the writer Jonn Elledge
Anon, I did get your message - THANK YOU. Iām just working myself up trying to figure out how to say something that is vaguely helpful and not completely stupid. Will get back to you soon
DO NOT, AND I BEG OF YOU, DO NOT STAY SILENT. ISRAELI HAVE MASSACRED INNOCENT PALESTINIANS IN RAFAH, THEIR SAFE SPACE, THEIR CAMPS WHERE THEY WERE RESIDING. ITS A FUCKING MASSACRE. INNOCENT LIVES HAVE BEEN TAKEN, JUST LIKE THAT. MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN HAVE LOST THEIR LOVED ONES JUST LIKE THAT. AND IF YOURE STILL SILENT, SHAME ON YOU. SERIOUSLY.
and iām being so fucking serious when i say this, if you donāt believe in a free palestine get the fuck off of my page. i donāt want your support and i NEVER will. this is about innocent lives being LOST. people being BOMBED and loosing every single fucking thing they own. if you use the excuse of āwell iām not really into politicsā you can fuck all the way off. this isnāt about politics. this is about basic human rights.
people telling you they reread your fic is the biggest compliment you could ever receive. there are thousands of stories out there begging to be found, to be explored, but your story meant so much to someone that they came back to it eagerly, they went over every word again. to love is to return and loving a fic is rereading it. thank you to all readers and rereaders <3333
Everlark Fic (explicit): Best of Three
āItās called the Hunger Games,ā Johanna says as she chews through a mouthful of pizza. āCollege guys keep score of how many different girls ā or guys ā they sleep with from the start of the new college year through to the end of finals week. Certain partners or situations gain you extra points.ā
Katniss rolls her eyes as she reaches for another slice. āSounds depraved.ā
Katniss and Peeta navigate the final few weeks of high school together as new friends, biology partners, and more.
Everlark modern AU, rated E
Chapter 1 on AO3
Hi!
Chapter 2 is now on AO3 (and earns the E rating)
Final chapter is up on AO3 (and still E)
I ate every crumb of this fanfic
I've been obsessed since the first chapter, everything is perfect.
The sex is incredibly hot, the high school environment is so amazing, Peeta is sweet, Katniss is adorable.
I'm obsessed with the dialogue, with the references to the cannon. Everything is so fun to read. It's one of my favorite fanfics of all time
This is the kind of fanfic that reminds me why I write and makes me want to get better. That's why I try so hard, I want to get to that level.
@purple-cube, thank you for everything. I look forward to your next work.
Give it a change and read it when you have time.
This is so sweet of you, thank YOU @littlemarianah š„°
Reading what you wrote here makes all the months of trying to steal an hour out of my evening or weekend to write this story worth it. I was convinced that it wouldnāt get much feedback because itās just another high school AU when there must be hundreds of them by this point (and one written by an English person, no less). But to get this praise from you and beautiful comments from others has truly made my day/week/month/year. It reminds me how amazing it can feel to be part of a fandom and a community.
A word of caution from an old person though: youāll be happier as a writer if you donāt compare your work to others. All writers have a place in fandom, and youāll always feel like there are better writers. Enjoy the way those writersā stories make you feel, and believe in the fact that you also write stories that make people feel that way, whether you receive one comment/kudos or hundreds ā¤ļø
