Still Here by @futurelounging

Elizabeth and Luke

His body was strung tight with nervous energy, the inexplicable charge of meeting someone, however brief and accidental, that sometimes burrows under the skin, taking residence in one’s form.

O and P!

Fanfic Ask Game!

O: How do you begin a story–with the plot, or the characters?

Definitely with the plot. I need to have something interesting to write about - even if it’s just a conversation between two characters. 

P: Are you what George R. R. Martin would call an “architect” or a “gardener”? (How much do you plan in advance, versus letting the story unfold as you go?)

Depends on the story. For my one-shots, and for most of the Modern Glasgow ficlets, I’m a gardener - I just see where the story takes me. But for my longer stories, like Shifted or Uitlander, I write most of the story before I post it - go back and edit it almost too many times - before I publish it.

January 1st - Memorable Canon Fic

“Out Of Time” by @futurelounging

I may be taking liberties here with “canon fic” but this story is canon in my opinion, so fight me.

In this fic @futurelounging explores the backstory of Henry and Julia Beauchamp, Claire’s parents. She creates a world and story that is completely unique to Outlander fanfiction and will have you hooked from the first chapter.

It’s hard to give any details without spoiling it, but if you read it, it’ll surely become canon for you as well!

January 7th - Unfinished fic that you would love to see updated in 2019.

“Funeral For The Author” by @futurelounging

This fic doesn’t exist, but I think “Death Of The Author” needs a sequel.

That’s all.

futurelounging replied to your post “A question to my followers”

Me! We had to take typing class in middle school and we were tested on doing it without looking. I loved it. I can type quite fast. That said... I do wonder why we still use QWERTY.

So it looks I am in the minority... *hangs head in shame*

I guess QWERTY is just because of the tradition - it might be quite hard to change it now? I wonder what would be the optimal order of letters if the keyboard would be completely redesigned? It would have to be along the lines of still somehow evenly spacing the most often used letters so that writing wouldn’t be too cluttered or one-sided...
