Every new comment on Just A Little Bit Bad makes me extremely happy and I just...still gotta write...a timestamp piece...

Hi. I'm currently reading your fanfiction, Just a little bit bad. I haven't finished yet but I like it a lot so far. Very well written. I wonder if you have some art about it? I'm desperate for a bokor Lucifer art.

Yes, there is art for this series! It was initially supposed to be a Samifer Big Bang entry for that year, but life complicated things for us and we couldn’t finish it on time. Because of this, however, we did have a lovely artist assigned to us, and they made this WONDERFUL picture:

And, fun fact, I did illustrations for this story for a portfolio project in an art course I took a couple of years ago, so here are some of those pieces:

Thanks for asking! I hope you’re enjoying the fic.

HEY so if anyone wants to chat with Sarah (co-author of that one giant fic...you know, the Vodou AU...) and me or ask questions or shout at us for whatever reason, we’ll be together this afternoon. Just FYI.

devilofmischief replied to your post “anactorya replied to your post “So many Samifer people have become...”

I currently do tbh xD Only around 20k words tho... Jesus, 128k, it should have been a book xD

But 20k is still a lot! Like, I’d get super excited over a 20k+ word Samifer fic if I just found one while browsing.

I mean if you ever want to read the Vodou AU...if you haven’t already...

SHAMELESS SELF-PROMO: Just A Little Bit Bad on AO3 

It’s long enough to be a good novel, honestly. Sarah (co-author) and I are just letting fellow fans enjoy it for now, but who knows what we’ll do with it eventually? 

I still need to write timestamps for that thing...

Guess I’ll be doing a re-read this summer, huh?

[sweetonmeclarence]

Guess who’s coming over to visit.

The co-author of the Vodou AU.

Just thought I’d let you know.

Anyone want to ask questions about the Samifer Vodou AU (aka Just A Little Bit Bad)?

‘Cause Sarah and I are about to be in the same room at the same time.

Just saying.

I think I should make 12 comic book cover/title page pieces for my portfolio based on the Vodou AU. I can't do likenesses too well b/c copyright blah blah blah...but still. What do you say?

This chapter written by Mer and Sarah

Final word count is 127,985. Incredible.  This is my little note at the end of chapter 31. No spoilers, just...well...here:

Thank you all so much. I really can't say it enough. This gigantic story has meant so much to us. Sarah and I worked over this from May all the way through October...just for you all. It's been an excellent adventure and a wonderful journey. We learned that people at the library in our town don't give young women strange looks when they check out the only copy of "The Voodoo Hoodoo Spell Book" but that they give anyone who presents a library card issued around fifteen years ago a mocking laugh. We learned that sitting in a hospital waiting room is much easier to deal with when there is sufficient WiFi and plenty of chapters to write. We learned that technology always fails us just when we need it to work for us. We learned that Spotify has nearly an endless supply of 1910s and 1920s jazz and show tunes. We learned that editing is a painful task. We learned some strange insults from our beta (wingedscribe on tumblr).

We learned a lot. And we did a lot. And I'm...heh, I'm proud of us.

You, our dear readers, may have noticed that this is part of a series. While we don't have any plans for a sequel, we do have a few pre-story snippets that we'll be writing and posting as part of this "series" for you all...and partially because we can't let go of these characters so soon.

Thank you very much. Every single one of you who left kudos, wrote comments, sent me messages on my tumblr account(s), helped us out with errors, bookmarked our story, and made us feel like we really did something worthwhile. We can't express our gratitude enough. You all really make us feel like we've done something worthwhile.

Thank you.
