tw moonbin

i know this is probably overdue but i wanted to get right with the situation first. i have been trying to process the loss of moonbin, and for me that has looked like having distractions while going through my emotions about the loss of his bright soul.

so, my words don't mean much, but i'd like to give my condolences to anyone who cared about moonbin, especially his family and friends. i never got to know him as a fan, but whenever his smile popped up on my timeline, i would smile with him. may he rest in peace ♡

ahh logged on to see i have 150 followers now???? it's not even that long ago since i hit 100 followers !!! and i still haven't done anything to celebrate the 100 but i guess i can let you guys know i have been working on some things for the milestones,, but one of them is taking a while bc it's taking a lot of brain power to do 😂 so that'll have to wait a little while still, but i can show you something else i've had in the works.

now, i'm still very new and not used to this site, but i've made a KO-FI

some of you may have seen it linked a few places on my profile, and it's there if anyone wants to use it; there is absolutely no requirements or expectations related to it, at all. it's for if anyone wants to show a little extra support, that's all. i will probably be linking it on my drabbles and other things i make from now on, just as a tip jar, and maybe i'll use the site to give some sneak peeks of some of the things i'm working on, probably by posting the banners early or drop some WIP pics, if anyone's interested in that.

that was that but it seems a little lame for it only to be that, so i'll attach some pics i took for something i'm making at this moment, just as a little treat and sneak peek ig hahah

and here's some more pics i took in my new hellfire club shirt !!! thank you again for 150 followers !!!!

it is my birthday today so the plan is to post some birthday related posts for all the groups/persons i write for. i'll of course makes space for the requests i have too if i finish them before finishing the birthday posts, but !!! it's the plan :D

long time no see

hi everyone. i'm sorry i kinda disappeared there for... many months. a lot has happened and i just got overwhelmed. to be completely honest, i lost my love for writing a little bit and i felt pressured by the requests coming into my ask box even though i had my requests closed and i felt like i needed to take a step back.

i have started writing again!! and good news; i have grown as a writer in the time i've been away so hopefully i'll be able to publish even higher quality works now.

if you guys have any questions, i am open to answer them, but please... no more requests, i beg of you.

hey guys, i just wanted to positively vent a little ♡

so, most of you know me from this fairly new blog where i write, maybe one or two people came from my ao3, i have no way of actually knowing, but what you probably don't know is that i've been writing for about a decade by now. i started out on wattpad, writing things for the One Direction fandom and was heavily criticised on my first ever post, which was an incoherent mess with only 200~ words per chapter. it was how you'd probably expect the first chapter of a fanfic to be, coming from a 13 y/o with no prior experience in writing fiction for an audience and who hadn't yet had a good grasp on the english language, and i was pretty close to vow never to post anything ever again. luckily i had 1 irl friend who believed in me and encouraged me to keep writing, even if the things i wrote only ever were seen by the two of us.

i think we forget that we all start somewhere, most of all us, the writers. we feel like we can't post anything until we deem it good enough for strangers on the internet, who are most likely not even writers themselves; only knowing how to judge writers without any knowledge on how draining it can be to share some of our soul to many scrutinising eyes, even if they don't realise that's their position.

i encourage writers to post, even the stuff that they believe is "bad". improve with your community. share that little piece of your soul and look at it grow as you work on it ♡ because it is truly worth it.

i ended up deleting my first ever story posted on wattpad but here is a sample of some of my first things published, even though i was considerably better at writing at this point ↓ TW FOR SOME DISTURBING DESCRIPTIONS THOUGH
