What are you favorites from the rffa so far?

Okay so, I spent the weekend reading instead of doing... literally anything else, so I’m very ready to share my faves:

For Now (E, 8K, Soulmates) Oh my golly golly gosh, this wrecked me. It hurt and healed in equal measures and I’m still wiping tears away. So gorgeously written. It’s definitely going on my forever faves list. Tear count: buckets.

He’s Just Not That Into You(r) Scent (E, WIP, ABO) one chapter in and I’m utterly in love. If you’ve seen the movie He’s Just Not That Into You you probably know what to expect, but I’m here to tell you that this will surpass your expectations. I also think it would be a great gateway into ABO, if you’ve never read it but want to give it a try.

the world’s not perfect but (T, 8K, Mandalorian Rey/Smuggler Ben) The world’s not perfect but this story IS. Do you know how long I’ve been waiting to read about Mandalorian!Rey? Too long. They dynamic is wonderfully adorable (they’re so sweet to each other I could cry) and this Poe is a delight. There are so many delicious canon Easter eggs as well! God, I love it. Please shower this author.

Peace and Purpose (T, 2K, TROS Fix-It) Sweet, sweet angst with a beautiful ending. Reader, I cried.

flight of the bumblebee (M, 8K, Internet Hook-Ups) Your honor, they’re awkward — and it’s so endearing I spent the whole time I was reading grinning like an idiot.

The Rise of Ren (E, 19K, Pre-TFA) This is the rival darkside apprentices AU you didn’t know you needed in your life. True foes to hoes excellence mixed with delicious banter and snappy comebacks. It’s genius, guys. Brilliantly written and their relationship starts off really antagonistic and and slowly morphs into something that’s just... so much, and so them and the whole thing is incredible and gaaaaaah, read it and then please ask the author to continue it. For me? Please please.

Belonging (E, 13K, FWB) omg it’s friends with benefits who fall in love and it’s so good I want to hold my puppy and scream into my pillow forever.

between the shadow and the soul (M, 7K, Dark!Rey) Stars, do you have any idea how much I like Dark!Rey and Jedi!Ben getting frisky during a skirmish? A lot. To the Death Star and back. This is gourmet and it also features some really fun Han & Ben moments.

Akdkslsk TROS is almost here!!! I need to cram in some great fics before it arrives what are your favorites/recs? I will take anything (although I love mutual pining, angst with a happy ending, slow burn). Thanks so much we’re in the final stretch now!!!!!

AhhhhHHHH I know!! It’s so close I can taste it (it tastes great, btw). Which means it’s the perfect time to indulge in fic because what else is guaranteed to make you suffer enough to effectively take your mind off the wait??

Anyway, I listed some of my forever faves here and here and you can also find a few more in my fic rec tag.

Recent faves include The Food of Love, which is now complete and it’s — as the youths would say — LIT. Orchestra AU. Delicious Reylo dynamic. Everything you could possibly want in a modern AU. (chapter 4 is... well. Just read it.)

Letters For You is currently killing me in all the best ways. Calligraphy is involved. Hurts so good.

A Royal Mix-Up is literally a Netflix Christmas movie, but better because it’s Reylo (obvs)

Out to the Last Night

Chapter 2: The Descent

She turned to enter the next perpendicular passage, when suddenly a prickling sensation began raising the hair on the back of her neck. Her knuckles turned white as she slowly turned her head.

There, she saw the nightmare that haunted even her waking thoughts; tall and broad, swathed in flowing black.

Kylo Ren was gazing at her, perfectly motionless - impossibly so - like the shadow of a statue of some horrible god of death.

Click her to read from the beginning on ao3.

Posts every Sunday, but also trying to get as much posted throughout the week before TROS, so subscribe and check in! This will not be abandoned! All plotted out, chapters written ahead, just needs editing.

This is a reylo Dark Rey fic heavily featuring The Knights of Ren, exploring redemption, love, and the mysteries of the Force outside of the dogmatic parameters of the Jedi and Sith. Characters from both Legends and the new canon will be making appearances.

Thanks to my lovely beta’s @a-nerd-obsessed (who made this gorgeous moodboard) and @qotsisajakk !This is my first fic and I don’t know where I’d be without them or the support of everyone @reylofanfictionanthology !

Today we are highlighting AngstyWriter, who is participating in our Finish Your Fics project this November!  You can go here to read profiles of other participating authors.  

What Reylo Fic are you working on this November?

Out to the Last Night

What got you into writing Fanfiction?

The Last Jedi got me into Reylo, then I ‘accidentally’ read a Reylo fanfic, The Dark Moon Rises series by AnyaVoss (no really, it was an accidental click on a link and before I’d finished the first chapter I was hooked and was like, well I guess this is my life now lol). I hadn’t read fanfic in years. Eventually I got hooked on diasterisms’ Sword of the Jedi series and I just couldn’t resist the itch to write anymore! I’ve also beta’d a lot which really helped my writing skills grow, and now I sort of feel like I’m ready to give back to this fandom that has meant so much to me. I’ve written novels and short stories before, but never fanfic, and honestly I find the research aspect for writing SW to be one of the most appealing things. I think the vastness of the world to play in was a huge aspect that drew me into wanting to write within the SW universe.

What are you most proud of in your Fanfiction?

The fact I’m writing again lol. Also my extensive research and blending of old and new canon, and the fact I came up with an ending for once!

What fic that you’ve written are you most proud of?

This one! I’ve started others that I will hopefully post on ao3 one day, but this story is my real baby that I’ve had in my head for two years, and is the story I’m most passionate about.

Thank you for participating and happy writing, please support @angstywriter this month!

THIS IS MY FRIEND YALL AND SHE’S WRITING A FABULOUS FIC. READ IT (once it’s published lol)

[angstywriterangst]

Thankful to everyone at the reylo finish your fic anthology! You guys have been so supportive and kept me motivated to write and provided me with the battlefield to fight glorious word wars to earn my spot in Valhalla once I start posting on Sunday, December 1st!

And to my dear friend @a-nerd-obsessed , who I has been the biggest gift this fandom has given me. We’ve been working together for 1 ½ years, and it has been a pure joy, you have taught me so much and helped me grow as a writer. Beta'ing for you has been one of the best things I’ve ever done! Honestly, your story has become my baby, I care about your characters and story as if it were my own. I couldn’t be more honored to have you beta for me again. I love that you are a deep editor who’s not afraid to rip my shitty chapters apart and rebuild them into something readable.

Also thanks to @qotsisajakk ! First time working with them, and I’m so glad the anthology matched us up! Your insights and critiques have been invaluable. Thank you for also being a brutal editor! Thats what I look for in a beta, and I love that you’re so thorough.

I’m honestly terrified of posting… and realizing now that I’m posting in two days makes me want to puke. But I’ve got the best support system from all those mentioned above, so no matter what happens, I know they’ve got my back.

[qotsisajakk]

Make sure to check this fic out once it's posted!! You will not be disappointed!

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there.
