Thank you. I seriously feel like, aside from the few amazing friends I have in real life, tumblr is the only place I have to just be myself. And it’s the only place I feel comfortable in my own skin. It’s because of people like you.

i try to make my blog a safe place for people that are struggling with their body so that they see my body positive posts and it gives them a bit of confidence that day or shows them that they're not alone and have someone to talk to about their struggles knowing it actually works makes me so happy and just thank you so much if you're ever having a bad day please message me and if you're having a good day message me because i always love getting messages telling me that they're feeling confident and hot that day!!! just always keep being you because you're amazing <333

I read this and I started to cry. I’m a size 24 and today is the first time I’ve worn shorts in public in three years. It felt odd, but I did it. And reading this was exactly what I needed to see to make me feel even better about myself. Thank you.

Accountability!

—Eat breakfast —Write some shit —Fill out some paperwork (no, seriously, please, someone ride my ass about this, I NEED to get this done!) —ALL THE MOTHAFUCKEN LAUNDRY OMG.

9:30: I’ve eaten breakfast and shot off an email I needed to send (paunfar and 3rockstarproblem, be on the lookout!); about to gather a load of towels and start those before sitting down to do the writing thing.

1:45 I have folded and put away 1 load of laundry (2 more waiting in baskets), am washing another and drying yet another. I’ve put ch15 together of my MS, and Craig and I sat down to fill out paperwork. Will need to take it by health department to finish filling it out. About to run to Spinx for wifi needed to email Anne, and then come home to fold more before getting Sean from bus and Liam wakes up. Also need to eat lunch at some point, since I can feel my blood-sugar bottoming out.

5:00 I've gotta fold the towels, the last load is drying, and I accidentally wrote another scene to TNOUL.

Have been stolen by ahollowforest and arieus84, and I'm in pajamas, hobbit-foot slippers, and the Princess Mononoke mask/cloak that a-cumberbatch-of-cookies made me... Currently singing Miss New Booty/Brodyquest mash up at the top of our lungs... Tonight is good. BONUS: SNOOP DOGG/THOMAS THE TANK ENGINE MASHUP YESSSSSSS.

Me: *about to create a new Scribophile account for erotica* What should my smut-writing name be?

Craig: *thinks for half a second and looks down to keep from giggling.* *mumbles under breath* Slit-wizard. You should be Joan Slitwizard.

Me: *cackling incoherently*

Craig: What? That was the worst thing I could think of.

Me: *about to fall out of chair*

Craig: Don't laugh! If you're not gonna use it, I will.

Me: *barely able to breathe or speak for laughing* You'd be Joan Slitwizard?

Craig: No, I'd be Jane. We could be the Slitwizards!

You get a lot of attention for your fanfiction, as you should. But what I never see is anyone mentioning your Criminal Minds fics. I absolutely love the dynamic you created with Emily and Spencer. What inspired you to pair those two up?

BLESS YOU I am quite attached to and proud of my CM fanfiction (all of which is on my AO3 page) but yeah, nobody talks about it.  CM is a small fandom, and Prentiss/Reid is a very rare pairing.  In fact, it's my only experience of writing a rare pairing.

I got hooked on the show without touching the fandom.  By the time I dipped a toe in, I was pretty firmly on board that pairing train.  It just seemed natural to me, and they had some great moments in the show.  I assumed that when I got to the fandom, that pairing would be everywhere.  Alas, twas not to be.  It's not a popular one.  I just thought they went well together.  Nerd Love is the best.

Arieus84 asked: What are your favorite things about being a ginger? Well, as a fellow ginger, I'm sure you'll recognize several of these... :D --When my hair was longer, and it would get in my eyes and catch the sunlight? It was gorgeous. It reminded me of molten copper, and it was one of the few times I would admire the way I'm composed. The downside, there, of course, was the emphasis that everyone put on how beautiful my hair was, how I'd better not cut it, etc. But since I have? I still catch flashes of that red sometimes in the mirror, and I like the way I look better, so it evens out. I'm also having to accept the inevitability of auburn turning brown, and that helped me decide to chop it off. :D --I mentioned it earlier, but THE GINGER BUSH. Lol. It's all pretty! -- The inevitable question that comes from non-gingers who have no place asking: "Do the carpets match the drapes?" It used to bother me, but now I just think it's funny. I would wonder why people are so mystified by this, but then again, HAVE YOU SEEN A GINGER BUSH? Lol. That's all I can think of for now. But keep 'em coming! :D

Bemoaning the dearth of Nevermore fic, because Pinfeathers is just damn cool.
