Hope you are all starting this new year in joy, peace, and good health. 🙏🏾
Thank you all for the love you all showed to all my writing last year. 🫶🏾
I'm here to share a few announcements with you all...
Firstly, I will be starting a new fanfic series on @onionhassayyo at the end of this month.
More details to come Jan 26th...
Whoop, whoop.
Secondly, for this page, @thetjtales, I will be posting poems, essays, and short stories, at least once a week.
Yeah, yeah.
Thirdly, you may have noticed that the ANAMCHARA series masterlist status still reads ongoing...
Well. That's because it is.
The series was initially just meant to be a oneshot series. However, I can't seem to move on from the boys. And yes, I just finished the series literally yesterday, but expanding this world has been on my mind for a while.
So the series is being extended.
More info on January 3rd...
Ayyyyyyy.
Anywho...
To my beloved mutuals and writing inspirations, on this beautiful app and beyond, thank you all for your amazing works from 2025. I can't wait to flourish and grow with you all this new year.
That’s the phrase you’ve lived by since you were 6 years old, and wanted to be an angsty Latin girlie.
We turned 26 years old a few months ago, and just entered 2026.
Thank God we said, as the clock marked a new year in the GMT time zone.
Why? ‘Cause 2025 quite frankly sucked.
But we survived it.
Barely.
You reminded me several times that we will eventually die several times last year.
You were reminding me for the purpose of encouraging us to live each day to its fullest.
But, there were forces trying to hijack your cheerleading.
Copious A&E trips, innumerable anxiety and panic attacks, intense self-isolation, and other more severe things I refuse to acknowledge except in a therapist’s office.
Really didn’t think we would make it out at times.
But here we are.
Not fully out of the woods, but still able to see the sun make its attempt to break through the darkness.
Thank you for not letting go of hope for us.
Thank you for keeping the faith.
Thank you for being you.
I will do everything in my power to keep you seen, safe, and sound this year.
As mentioned in this post the ANAMCHARA series is going to be extended into a long fic series for each member!!!
Whoop, whoop. 💃🏾
I'm back in college literally on Monday, and it is going to be an intense start of the semester, between uni, work, family, and writing.
The original delulu plan was to aim to post a member per month, but then the math (12 months vs. 13 members) and the logistics (I literally finished the original series on December 31st AND I just started outlining what I want to write for like 6 of the boys) didn't add up. 😕
So the new plan is to start posting in March. Again the details are still kinda fuzzy, and I don't know what it will all look like once fully storyboarded, but I am so So SO excited, and I will keep you all updated of progress. 😄
If there is anything you would like to see in the series, or if you have any general requests for fics, or you just want to say hello, please feel free to use the ask box.
Series aside, I have some oneshots and drabbles that I will be posting soon, so keep an eye out for those.
Also, keep an eye out for the Januray 26th announcement... 🤫
Happy New Year to you all... Again.
Stay joyous, healthy, and hydrated everyone,
~TJ~
POV: Me right now as the ideas for the series come marching in...
Hi!! I’m Rae. I’m 20 years old 😭There’s not much to tell about me lmao. I exist, I vibe.
Q02. What sparked you into writing?
SVT, honestly 😭 It’s kind of obvious since I write for them, but I really love these guys. I’m very much a “delulu is the solulu” person, so I’d imagine scenarios that sounded way too good in my head– and at some point I just gave in and started writing them down.
Q03. What does your writing process look like?
Lots and lots of blabbering. I just have an overall idea of what I'm supposed to write, I write the background of my characters. Then I create a timeline. And thennnn I finally start writing :)
Q04. How do you find inspiration and ideas for your writing?
Late night scenarios 😭, a few TV shows, and random conversations with my friends (they play a huge part in giving me ideas, ily guys). Also PINTEREST BOARDS!! Some SVT pics are just so so sooo cool that they immediately make me want to write scenarios around them.
Q05. Are there any particular figures or albums, and songs that influence your writing process?
Not exactly…i listen to laufey a lot, a few of my fics are based on her songs. I don’t have a particular artist as such, but in general a lot of the music I listen to influences my ideas and the overall vibe.
Q06. Do you listen to music while writing? What type of music do you prefer if you do?
I LOVEEE LISTENING TO MUSIC WHILE WRITING. YES. I prefer pop music, ballad and jazz –really sets the mood for me ;)
Q07. How would you describe your writing style to someone else?
Slow-paced, emotional, and very much about the vibes. I like letting scenes breathe and sitting in the tension.
Q08. What's your favorite genre to write about?
Definitely romance, mostly e2l and f2l. I'm a sucker for slowburns.
Q09. Are you a planner or pantser? And how do you deal with a writer block?
I’m kind of in between. I usually have a rough idea of where I want the story to go, but I don’t plan everything out. for writer’s block, I usually take a break, listen to music, consume other content until ideas start flowing again, or i just write something else.
Q10. What's your current writing dilemma?
Having too many ideas and not enough motivation to finish all of them.
Q11. What's your recent writing achievement?
Reaching 1k followers. It still feels unreal that so many people choose to read my fics.
Q12. Do you typically know the end of your story before finishing it?
Not always. sometimes I have a general idea of how it'll end, but a lot of time I figure it out as I'm writing.
Q13. What's your favorite line that you have written and explain why?
‘You smile. “Still mine.”’ this is from my fic Yours to keep. My enlistment fic for Wonwoo (ugly crying rn). In this scene Wonwoo returns after serving and even after years of no contact– the emptiness, the missing, and the uncertainty about whether things would stay the same –he’s finally back. Even if he looks different, I wanted to show that he’s still your Wonwoo.
Q14. What's your own favorite work?
A Seat Across from You. Tbh this was one of the fics that I've struggled writing, especially because I was going through a rough patch then and also the fact this fic had the most slowburn I've ever written, so I was always unsure of how it'll turn out. It was stressful but also reallyyyyy worth it!
Q15. What's your least preferred work of your own?
My first smut for jeonghan which was also the first request I ever received. Looking back i think there's always room for improvement.
Q16. Have you ever completely went divert from your outline and ended up writing the story completely different from the initial plan?
Yes I have 😭 My fic revving for love was not supposed to end like that but I was struggling with deadlines and a really bad writers block, so the story ended up taking a completely different turn than I originally planned.
Q17. Outside of writing, what are your hobbies? And drop a fun fact about yourself!
I like dancing, I enjoy sports a lot– I play basketball and badminton. Also a big fan of bedrotting and doomscrolling.
Q18. If you could collaborate with another writer, who would it be?
Not one specific writer, but I’ve always been a big fan of @studiosvt. Joining them last year meant meeting so many talented writers and making a lot of great friends, which I’m really thankful for.
Q19. Give yourself and your peers writing advice.
For myself, I’d say to be a little kinder and not overthink every line so much. And for other writers, write at your own pace and don’t compare your progress to anyone else’s. Everyone grows differently, and the most important thing is to enjoy what you’re creating.
Q20. Leave a message for your precious readers.
Thank you for reading my stuff and sticking around 💗💗 Your comments, notes, and tags mean more than I can say. Every interaction reminds me why I love writing, and I hope my stories make you feel something too. Love you all!
RAE'S BIGGEST FAN ASKED...
Q21. Which one of your characters from your fics is your dream person??
Seungcheol from Love, On Air – I mean bestfriend who has always been in love with you…need I say more?!
Q22. What's your favorite line/dialogue/prose that you've written so far...yk, the moment where your eyes light up when the idea strikes and you cant stop your fingers from shivering when you put it down!! and when you re-read it, you feel like throwing your puter away and go 'huh? what? i wrote thisss??'
I think the airport scene in Revving for Love… i wrote the scene in like 30 min and I was actually kinda proud of how it turned out.
Q23. Intense connection of souls aka love at first sight? or nurturing something greater than the selves aka slowwww burn and yearning?? (basically, no. 1 party anthem by the arctic monkeys vs iris by the googoo dolls??)
I love both, but I’ll always choose slow burn and yearning. Watching something grow into something bigger just means more to me.
Q24. Did you ever read something that inspired you to instantly want to write something similar/recreate the feeling you felt while experiencing it firsthand?? if yes then whatttt please shareee <3
Yes, definitely. Sometimes I’ll read something so emotionally intense and comforting that it makes me want to sit down and recreate that same feeling in my own way –not the story itself, but the way it made me feel while reading it.
Q25. If you could live in one of your own fics which one would it be?
Love, On Air. Definitely!!!! Imagine cheol as are bsf AND HE'S ALSO IN LOVE WITH ME. WHAT MORE DO I WANT!!??
Q26. If you could live as a character in someone else's fic, which one would it be?
Normal people by @belovedgyu. Everything in that fic is a chef's kiss. I relate to OC in so many ways and mingyu…he's got me whipped.
Q27. What is something that you struggle with the most when it comes to writing and whats something that comes naturally to you?
Pacing is probably the hardest part for me, but writing feelings and character interactions comes very naturally.
Q28. Lastly, the theme for 2026???
I have not thought about it yet 😭 hope I find something good.
Q29. Oh one more question for rae, do you have any post-writing ritual? yk the way you celebrate after weeks long writing and editing process and finally hitting the post button here? i for one love getting myself a sweet treat and watch some trashy television while waiting for the responses/reblogs/comments of the readers to flood in hehe <3
I usually just lie down, scroll aimlessly, and wait for the adrenaline to wear off. Sometimes I’ll treat myself to something sweet or watch something mindless while refreshing to see if anyone’s reacted.

Soulmate as Gaeilge
noun. a person with whom one has a unique, deep connection based on mutual understanding, that maybe leads to acceptance
summary:
A part of your soul.
That is what the universe promised each and every single person born into this world. All thanks to the Greeks and their notions - Agape, Eros, Philia, Storge, Ludus, Pragma, Philautia, and Mania.
Some are wholesome, some... Not so much.
And even the bonds that are meant to heal you may rip you apart.
Are you willing to leave your life solely in fate's hands?

author's note:
Let's get ready to RRRRUUUMMMBBBLLLEEE!!!
I'm so extremely excited for this series, y'all. You can't even imagine.
I've been telling myself to just write what I want to read for a while, like I used to when I was young, but for some reason (adulting), I'd lost my spark for far too long.
This is me reigniting the fire in my soul.
Massive shoutouts to all the works I've read that inspired this series: From "To You" by the amazing @wooahaeruby, to "My Heart By Your Side Forever" by the awesome @wooahaes, and that one archived fic by the beloved @pomegranate-teardrop. Plus all the other skilled writers in Carat Tumblr, as well as on this app in general. Thank You.
Hope you enjoy reading as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Hope you enjoy reading as much as I enjoyed writing it.
This series started as an idea in late January, just a few days after I had signed up for Tumblr and stumbled upon some of the most amazing works of writing I have ever seen in my life.
And now, here I am, putting this series out there, and quite honestly, I don't think I've felt this fulfilled in a hot minute.
Thank you all for all the love and support for this series, and your patience with the delays from last week.
