PLEASE post your Gentleman Jack AU? It sounds really good
Would you be interested in it? :’) ♥ I’ve been so conflicted with that fic. I’ve been tiptoeing around it and writing it in bursts of inspiration and then I got discouraged but picked it back up and I’ve been on that process of self doubt for months lol
I wanted to write a fic set in the publishing world for a while because it’s my area. I actually wrote 4 chapters of a Les Mis fic that I never posted that was basically a modern version of the plot of Newsies (a modern newsies au? the chapters were titled with Newsies songs...) but with online content creators being exploited instead of newsboys, and I had this whole big project with hyperlinks and pictures and then things happened between me and the Les Mis fandom and I never finished it or posted it at all.
So last year I thought maybe I would use the publishing world for a more casual GJ modern au and it’s basically about Ann being budding author/illustrator who wants to work with Anne Lister independent editor extraordinaire and things happen in a sort of slow burn but not too slow because I’m impatient. It’s not nearly as complicated as my previous abandoned fic, because I wanted to be more chill about it, and the result is that I’m unsure of whether it’s worthy of being posted at all.
If you think it’s a worthy idea to be read, I could give it a try. It was nearly finished when I left it the last time because I keep coming back to it anyway and it was meant to be a chill one shot that didn’t get me as sad as the abandoned Les Mis fic.
