[rosharanfiction]

HI GIRL HOW ARE YOU I fucking always forget to tag you in things I’m so sorry :( I haven’t seen you in a minute what are you up to

HI GIRLIE! 💖 ok so i deleted my tumblr app for a week so i could finish my wip because i am a goblin without self control. but it's drafted, so i am back! how are you what's going on? i was trawling ao3 and saw you have a new fic, i am hype to read it!

and please do not apologize, i overstand. i never have less of an idea of who my mutuals are than when the time to tag people arises.

Girl I can barely afford my own therapy bill 😖😩 can’t pay yours too, we have to cope writing fics

LMFAO

a lot of writers owe me money for therapy, but yes we stick to coping by writing

[cozymochaa]

Hellloooooooooo, 1, 9 and 14 for the ask game 🫶

hiii cherry 🤍

1 ⧽. if you could sit down and finish any one of your wips without anything stopping you (time, tiredness, etc), which fic would you choose? tell us about it if you want!

prob when did you get hot? it was the first series i wrote and ive abandoned it bc i hate it 💀

9 ⧽. tell us about a wip/idea that you're excited about!

im writing a little narcos AU (Javier did marry Lorraine, he stayed in Laredo and became sheriff, reader is his assistant) I'm very excited to write it

14 ⧽. is there anything outside of your normal content that you want to write?

perhaps something for criminal minds or suits ?? i wouldn't know what, but ive thought about it

ask me anything :)

[cozymochaa]

I wrote it in my tags but I have to come here and say it as well but my fancanon for Pedro is that he’d name a daughter violeta or lila or any violet-adjecent name and it makes me so happy when I see those names in fics :(

yesss

his favorite color goes across all characters

[mcthsman]

Yes enter your reed Richards era you wanna do it so bad

STOP ENABLING ME

Hiiii I wanna know 🎉 ✅ ⌛ :)

🎉 What leads you to consider a fic a success?

hmmm this is such a difficult question to answer?? i think enjoying my own work is def the most important part, sometimes i'll write something and not want to reread it ever again (the two final chapters of loudmouth can die in a ditch for all i care lmao) and then sometimes i'll write something and reread several times and be so heart eyes over it so yeah i'd say that's the biggest one but knowing people enjoy reading it as well is such an endorphine boost lmao especially when it comes from people i admire and/or opinions i value a lot. (which... i wasn't going to tag anyone bc that's corny as hell but whateverrrr i'd def say you, camila, but also @rosharanfiction @68saturnism @trulyourslola @time-for-my-weekly-spanking @mrsnanamiller @wildthyng @cinnxmxngxrl @cozymochaa & some other peeps as well!!!)

✅ What's something that appears in your fics over and over and over again, even if you don't mean to?

i'm not sure about, like, tropes i reuse and things like that but i know my characters curse a lot (they take it after their mama i guess), i'm always having to go back during revisions and remove some cursing lol

⌛ How long does it take you to write a fic, or a chapter?

depends a lot on how inspired i am, and how my personal life is. i usually write in the mornings/afternoons at work so if work is chill i write a lot more. andddd being inspired helps too, it usually takes me about a week/week and a half to write a chapter (most of them around 4k words), but if i'm going a one shot it can go well over a month.

writer emoji ask!

That first chapter of Feral was SOOO good! I love soulmates AU and I haven’t seen many written for Joel, now I kinda wanna write one too hehe

Also the descriptions, the richness of everything! I loved it! Very inspiring too hehe (I might have to credit you in my WIP at some point)

Will we get to know more about reader’s backstory? 👀 because I am so intrigued rn. Also how many chapters will this have? I don’t remember if you said it

(Nossa, só agora vi que você é do Brasil! Oi daqui da Argentina 🫶 Espero que a gente continue bem amigas no ano que vem, quando começar a Copa 😅)

thank you so much babe!!! you should def write your soulmates au, we're desperately in need of more content like that 🥹🥹 it's one of my favorite tropes everrrr i was so sad when i noticed how lacking we are of joel soulmate fics YES omg we're definitely getting more of her backstory for chapter two!! it's a big part of the joel x reader dynamic on this one i'm so excited for everyone to get to know her a little more. i'm not... entirely set on the chapter count just yet? i'm planning at least seven or eight but i have a bad habit of moving things around and switching chapters when i'm writing so the number's not set yet 🤭

(hehehe simmmm!!!! quanto a copa....... amiga do jeito que a seleção brasileira tá eu vou ter que fingir que não sou brasileira quando os jogos começarem)
