Favorite Authors Masterlist

I want to shout out my favorite writers and some of their work that I truly adore and come back to read often. You deserve some love! I know I’m not alone in saying that your efforts and hard work are so greatly appreciated and admired, and I look forward to your future writing! This will be updated periodically.

@sinner-as-saint - Really any of their fics are phenomenal. I’m emotionally attached to the Mob! Seb AU, the Ransom Drysdale, and the Power Over Me series and highly recommend it/all of their work if you’re into kinky smut and dark romance. They’re honestly some of the best nsfw fics I’ve ever read and enjoyed | masterlist 

@harley-sunday - San had reblogged their Things We Lost in the Fire fic and I started and finished the series in one night. The raw emotions that were conveyed were so powerful that even as a reader I was swept up into that AU and was sad when the series ended; you’ll be lost in this AU in the best way | masterlist  

@heli0s-writes - Their ability to convey slow scenes, as if time has stopped and the only existence in the world is two souls close to each other, is truly a skill that I will never tire of. Slow Like Honey is  such a sweet fic and I recommend it if you enjoy pining after someone that maybe you shouldn’t have. All in the Weight (Gentle, we Fall) is another slow, time-has-stopped fic that is soft but with the raw emotions of ignoring truths. If you want to process and cry about past trauma then Star-Crossed is for you, it made me sob | masterlist  

@allaboardthereadingrailroad - Has an amazing ability to write action scenes in a way that makes you believe and feel like it's fast paced and personally exhausting to experience - almost like watching it in live action. The Deus Vult series absolutely nails in-character writing and dialog and truly made me feel like a reader-insert. Absolutely vivid story telling and the smut will make you blush, no I’m not kidding. | masterlist

@no-droids​ - Bless Tiktok for showing me glowing recommendations for their Mandalorian based and themed Rough Day series. Their character writing is spot on and the ability they have to create environments, atmosphere, world building, and that good smut is just outstanding. You’ll fall in love with Din all over again in this expansive and captivating fic. | masterlist

Very tired of friends and family members spouting the "you shouldn't call out! you need this job!! just be healthy!!!" as if I hadn't thought of that before and I'm not already stressed about calling out in my first week, but see here's the thing... come in close... closer... closer... It's almost like being chronically ill is a major life disturbance and we should give grace and understanding. I have no control over my flare ups or when they happen. What I don't need is more social guilt than the personal guilt I already have, thanks

I miss the sexy side of tumblr ):

there’s something so clinically satisfying about allowing and seeing just how far a friend or partner will go into being a terrible partner / friend. like i recognize all these red flags and narcissism clear as day, but the student and observer in me wants to curiously watch what happens if i just act completely unaware, like how far do they think they can go? i need to know for science, for my own wicked knowledge.

if i reciprocate the same energy the exact same way, what kind of response will i get? a visceral emotional response? distancing efforts? will they become obsessed? i need to know, ive subject-ized my boyfriend lol

Being chronically ill looks, feels, and acts so wildly different for everyone who is chronically ill. And sometimes it changes as you age, one thing gets replaced by another and your body is just finding new ways to suffer. I used to be partially disabled with pelvic pain, finally received life saving surgery and my body was able to heal. Now I have sporadic and random allergic reactions to something and we can't single out the allergen. My throat will close up, my body swells, I break out in body-covering painful hives, and sometimes it lasts for a week and it's so exhausting. It's kept me out of from work and don't even get me started on the "excused absences" and required doctor's notes. Being chronically ill can mean afflictions may change. Your friends and family that were dealing with one thing and are now dealing with another need your support, understanding, and compassion. Not gaslighting, questioning, and pseudo-positivity.
