the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

I genuinely cannot explain to a non-writer what it feels like when a chapter suddenly clicks. it's not satisfaction. it's not relief. it's this horrible specific feeling like you just remembered something you never knew. like the story was already there and you finally stopped being in the way of it. i don't know what to do with that feeling. i just close the laptop and stare at the wall for a bit.

writers really will spend twenty minutes pacing around the kitchen thinking “this scene is genius” and then sit down to type and suddenly remember approximately three words and one emotional vibe

The biggest compliment ever is when someone sees your creative work and says that they’re now inspired to go out and create something, too

when you see your little kitty walking toward you at a leisurely pace and say "hi baby!" bc you're excited to see her and she starts trotting a little bit faster 'cause she's excited to see you too. that's what life is all about i think

I wrote a thing. because there's simply not enough shaving!fic in the world and Top Gear has been eating my brain and I'm stressed about health stuff.

Title: A Clean Shave

Author: BloodySarcastic (Slow-Burn)

Pairing: Richard/James

Rating: T

Summary:

James smiled at him. ‘Would have thought you’d made peace with this sink by now. You’ve spent enough time with it over the years.’

‘I refuse to negotiate with terrorists.’ Richard crossed his arms over his bare chest, looking ridiculous with the uneven layer of shaving cream on his petulant face.

The earthy smell of rain is one of the most divine scents I’ve ever beheld.

you should get a second evening for reading fan fiction. And you should get an extra day in the week to do arts and crafts.
