💕 self-love time! talk about which ones of YOUR creations (edits, artworks, fanfics) you like the most then send to other creators to do the same 💕
hi jams omg thank you so much for the ask!! <3
Right now, i'd probably say the thing i created that i like the most that i've shared is also the longest thing i've ever written, my silly 120k word jayvik fic Vulnerability 😅 i started writing it while i was super depressed, like shortly after christmas, and after having not written in literal years, and through those characters and that universe i just... wrote out as much love and emotion as i could for 2 months straight
like, it was a time where i was living completely isolated, in shitty cold weather, all I had to do was work and survive, and I'd just graduated college alone. they mailed me my diploma. I celebrated by drinking a bottle of wine alone while it snowed outside. I didn't really have any friends. so... there wasn't much else for me to do, and i poured pretty much all my passion into those characters and their relationship, and i think it definitely came across :P the original title of that fic wasn't vulnerability, but i can't imagine it called anything else now just cause there's so much of me in it.
the process of writing and sharing that stuff was crazy, too, i'd literally work an ER night shift and write an entire chapter on fuckin google docs mobile, and then i'd get home from the shift in the morning and i'd read over it Once on my computer to make sure there wasn't anything egregiously wrong, copy it over to ao3, hit the publish button, and then fall asleep through the day until i had to work at night again 😭 like at least half of the chapters written are like that, which is completely nuts and i don't know how i did that.
sorry to talk about it so much oops :P it was a crazy time for me, and it was so wild to me that it received so much love. it still blows me away tbh.
