Writing is hard

Tumblr blog for user rapono on ao3. Feel free to bother me and ask about progress and whatnot.

[rapono-writes-stuff]

Welcome to Rapono's writing blog! Here I'll post about updates, extra info, and anything else related to my stories.

You can find my ao3 [right here!]

Some favourite themes to write about are angst, fluff, hurt/comfort, found family, and horror. Always be sure to check the tags in case there's something you don't like.

I do not write ns//fw fanfiction, but if I ever do, it would be under a different pseud. Please do not ask me to write such things.

Have a question about my stories? Feel free to ask! I'm always glad for the opportunity to infodump (unless it's spoilers 😉).

You are 100% allowed to create fanworks based on/inspired by my content. And if you do, please send it my way! I'd love to see it!

Planning to prioritize working on the sequel to Scorpion Lollipop and next chapter of Red red red whenever my head is clear enough to write again.

God bless speech to text

any time I tell my mutual about the fic i'm 'writing' and they ask me where they can read it

[rapono-writes-stuff]

I hope you get the Itchy Fingers™ /pos

I went through so many emotions when I saw this in my inbox it took me a little too long to realize the intention lmao

If you're wondering how I finally got unstuck on my Subnautica fanfic, I realized the solution to my problem was to have the stalker fish follow Ryley around like a feral dog begging for treats. He fed it once and now it won't leave him alone.

[immarainbowpatooie]

I should really just knuckle down and force myself to finish writing my Subnautica fanfic. It's been stuck in hiatus for over 5 years. My dumbass even started to make an audiobook of it before I finished it.

[rapono-writes-stuff]

Once again, cranky cuz I wanna write, but can't

[rapono-writes-stuff]

Holy shit genetic modification in subnautica real

[rapono-writes-stuff]

Fyi you are allowed to leave non-english comments on my fics.

[rapono-writes-stuff]

Is this any of y'all? I can't confidently clock whether this is AI or not, so checking here to see if any of y'all are this guy or if this is an AI bot you've seen before.

[conindiundrum-writing]

They who see this shall get out of their writing rut.

[rapono-writes-stuff]

Part of the reason for why I'm currently stuck on the next chapter of Red red red, is this is supposed to be the introduction of another key character, but I've lost track of the document that had all their details.

[rapono-writes-stuff]

Also if you're wondering why I sometimes add an "addendum" to the author's notes of my fics: I often prep things like the tags and description and notes ahead of time, sometimes way before I finish the fic. So the addendum is just me adding/clarifying things at the time of actually posting, while preserving the original notes.

You wake up with a lingering tension in your chest, a weight that won't go away, gnawing and festering behind your ribcage.

But you don't dare tell your coworker. After all, it would be selfish to distract them from their work with your problems. You just need to pretend long enough to finish your shift, and everything will be fine.

An old vent WIP from 2022 that I stumbled across recently, and managed to finished up the last couple scenes. This one's pretty heavy and personal, but I'm just glad to post something after being basically MIA on ao3 for over a year. Thank you for being patient with me.

[rapono-writes-stuff]

Sorry to any guest readers, gonna set the comments on this one to registered users only, cuz it's a bit more personal to me, but don't worry you can still read it without being logged in.

[rapono-writes-stuff]

Just stumbled across a mostly complete old vent fanfic and... it really good. Damn.

Really tempted to finish it, but don't know if I can get myself into that same headspace (nor do I really want to, haha) to be able to so. But, I want the satisfaction of finishing something. It's been far too long since I've felt that.

[rapono-writes-stuff]

Coming soon. Probably. Hopefully.
