The writing blog of @tcheschire. You can track my arting progress at @tcheschiredraws. This is where I'm going to be spamming memes I associate with the current project I'm writing and begging for attention. Theme: artemis by @ritahayworths | Icon by @fodlanteaparty
I'm tcheschire! I'm a fandom old, and this is my writing space! I have been writing recreationally for over twenty years, and have been active on a number of sites in that time (including FF.Net, Mediaminer, Efiction, Lunaescence, LJ, AO3 and more!). Currently, I write fic for a variety of fandoms, and occasionally even original content (ask me about my novels or shorts!), which has not been posted as yet - be on the lookout for that in the coming year.
Under the cut, you'll find links to all of my work that's currently available for viewing. If you think I'm a pretty chill dude, or if you'd like to support me, here is a link to my Ko-Fi!
If you'd like to chat with me about my current works (or something you'd like me to write - I don't mind requests, within reason!) feel free to shoot me an ask or a message. I don't bite!
Please be aware that I am an adult and I have been for a while. If you're a minor and that makes you uncomfortable, you don't have to interact with me. I'm not here to tell you what to do, I'm not your mom.
Terfs and phobes of all kinds aren't welcome here. I just plain don't want you here.

The winds of change converge into a hurricane…amidst the changing era, what will you do to stick to your nindō?
Era of Hurricanes is a Tumblr-based Naruto RP group, set right as Shippuuden begins. The unfolding plot will be canon adjacent and semi-divergent, with bi-monthly mission boards, regular events, a unique combat system, and more! Destiny is a tempest - will your muse forge bonds that withstand the winds, or fight against the current to defy fate?

I'm finally allowed to share the piece I did for @fe3hfemslashex! We've got a cute little Hildagard fic in a Modern AU. We've got a little angst, a little fluff, and some good found family dynamics. I'm really pleased with how this one turned out.
Every year around the end of January I think to myself, "Hm. Maybe I should reenter the [X] Fandom. I'll rewatch/reread/replay and see where that goes."
“It funny because for many years people thought Goncharov was the main antagonist of the film, after all, he’s the one everyone’s out to get, right? But it seems people are starting to understand that in actual fact, it is time that is the main adversary in this story. There’s never enough of it and that torments a lot of characters, especially Goncharov, because he’s fighting so desperately to find his place in a world that is so keen on keeping him ostracized.”

Ko-Fi & Other Support
If you enjoy my posts and can afford it, I would greatly appreciate it if you donated to my new ko-fi page! Each of these posts represents multiple hours of unpaid labor. I love writing for this blog, but I’m also an underpaid 20-something trying to stay afloat. I’ve made this master post of every essay I’ve written for this blog as a way to show my appreciation in advance of any support. If you donate, to further show my gratitude and appreciation, I’ll take requests for essay topics in the ‘messages of support.’
If you can’t afford to donate via ko-fi, another great way to show your support is simply by reblogging posts that you find useful and helping my blog reach new writers.
Hello everybody, thank you for taking part in the interest check! We are glad to hear that the idea of an Obito celebration resonated with so many of you!
We compiled your prompt ideas into a handy bingo card for Obito Week 2023. Between the 6th and the 12th of February you can play along by creating any type of fandom content you like with one or several of these inspirations above! Who knows, maybe you will get a bingo by the end of the week!
Leading up to the event we will offer you some synonyms and inspirations for each of these prompts to help your drive your creativity a little. We are already so excited for all you guys' creations!
If you have any other questions we would suggest you check our FAQ before sending an ask. We would also recommend everyone familiarise themselves with our rules.
My friend (who speaks English as a second language) wanted to express being able to write better than drawing, and this is how I’m describing my art skills from now on.
"come chat with me on tumblr/twitter" is code for "please locate and use my ko-fi", right? No one actually wants their readers to strike up a conversation outside ao3, do they?
--
I would not assume that at all.
Often, yes, they do have a ko-fi, but a lot of people link to their fucking CuriousCat, and what's that about if not interaction? Many writers do like getting to know others in the fandom.
Plus, AO3 has no DM function. Writers may be anticipating all the things DMs would be useful for—like dropping them a quick note about embarrassing typos without making it a public AO3 comment.
Why wouldn't you want readers to strike up a conversation, anon?
I semi-regularly link my tumblr in the end notes of my fic. So do quite a few writers I know. Nearly none of us have ko-fi or any such platform. Abso-fucking-lutely we want people to come talk to us. I met friends whom I've known and loved for a decade because one of us decided to chat about fic and fandom outside Ao3. I've formed countless fleeting but cherished friendships the same way.
I don't know how you're missing the whole "fandom is meant to be a community" thing so hard.
Hello, Duelists! We’re back with a brand new YGO zine centered around one of the best things about it!: Dragons. Please help shape our project by filling out out our INTEREST CHECK and sharing in any way you can. It will run from January 11th to the 31st, closing at 11:59PM PST.
Below are all the links that you will find helpful. If you have any questions, you can DM our Tumblr or Twitter or ask anonymously though our CC. Thank you ahead of time, Duelists!
I did one of these for my art blog, and tbh I'll probably do another one for my langblr bc Capricorns love lists.
While my other goal lists are much longer, there is also a lot of emphasis on being a beginner improving specific technical skills, which I don't necessarily need to do with writing. Instead, this list will feature fewer goals which are nevertheless more ambitious and harder to achieve.
So to start...
This year I wanna focus on community! That means my main focus is going to be on events and exchanges for fan content output. If you see an event you think I'd enjoy, send it my way, I'd love to hear about it! I've got one coming up that I'm very excited for, and another that I heard about on the bird site (which I can't necessarily participate in, but I may still just like unofficially idk).
Last year I attempted applying for a couple of zines, and there are a few valid reasons that I didn't end up making the cut. So I think if I focus for a few months on producing solid content for visible events, maybe sometime in the winter I will try to apply for another zine.
On a slightly more relaxed note, I'd like to update my two kinda big fics (Culture Shock and Ripple). Culture Shock should be easy, but Ripple is going to require some work. Still, both very doable. If I have the energy, I'd like to knock off some oneshot ideas that I've been sitting on for a while (close friends will recognize Firebird Hawks, the Malik oneshot, and the YGO Ready or Not crossover).
And finally, I'd like to focus on my novel. I've done myself a lot of favors and set a lot of groundwork, but there is still a lot that needs to be accomplished. I think a reasonable goal would be to first draft the first five chapters. (This also coincides with my goal to get out of the house a little bit because I'd like to start frequenting some of my local cafes a bit while I write)
Sign-ups for the FE3H Femslash exchange close tomorrow, 11 January, at 11:59PM EST! We're at 74 (!!) sign-ups so far and we'd love to have you join us!
