When you say you are on hiatus till September, do you mean September 2025?

I'm actually on indefinite hiatus but if there is a story you're interested in and can't find, let me know!

[titaniasfics]

Hi! I've been scrolling through my archives, reading old favorites and when I came across your short story "Speechless" written for loveinpanem. I was so excited because I really loved that one but when I clicked on the read more , it was no longer hosted. I looked through your Ao3 and couldn't find it. I was wondering if it was available anywhere else or if you would consider posting it to ao3?

Thank you so much.

The story is here. Maybe I never got around to posting it on AO3? Here goes!

Do you know of any everlark authors on A03 that you would recommend? I have read all your fics and need more recs! 💖💖💖

Aww you’re so sweet 🥺 thank you.

Okay so I’d recommend a lot of people but I’m trying to think of those who I don’t often see recommended. Which is why I haven’t answered until now because I feel like by the time I’ve read a lot of fics — I’m slow when it comes to reading tbh 😭 — most people have already read them themselves. I would recommend rosales on ao3 first of all. She’s a sweetheart and she’s even taking requests right now! I believe she has five everlark fics currently so go check those out. She’s not on tumblr so I feel like she needs others to go show her love since this place in my opinion is a huge way people get their fics noticed. And then after her, I’d recommend @titaniasfics (titania522) also on ao3. She’s written so many for years for everlark and I haven’t even gotten to them all yet 😭😂. She’s probably popular I just don’t see her recommended as much. Also I know her latest story has gotten some good traction but I want to recommend @katesdibiasky (melissaeverdeen13 on ao3) because she’s got a lot of recent high quality everlark fics. On the same note @petruchio also was posting some very good everlark stories for a while there too in the recent months! She’s also petruchio on ao3. Another great writer (who wrote one of my fave everlark oneshots ever) is @alliswell21 / alliswell on ao3.

If I didn’t mention you I probably feel like I see your name recommended a lot already ❤️❤️❤️. You’re all super talented in this fandom.

And if anyone has anymore authors who you feel don’t get recc’d often, feel free to add them!

Writing Advice - On Arrow Wounds

I have a couple pet peeves in fantasy novels, but nothing gets me more riled up than how authors treat arrows. People seem to think that arrows were nuisances rather than deadly weapons, when, no they were one of the most strategically useful weapons in all of history. You could kill people from far away without getting hit yourself, until of course in the later medieval eras, plate armor was produced. Then arrows evolved into bullets that could pierce through armor, and it was all over for both sides. I wanted to give you guys a couple of facts I’ve learned about arrows because they’re a lot cooler than people think.

- Arrowheads usually require surgery, with functioning tools, to remove. This is because of the arrowhead’s shape:

On the left, we see the most painful, and what I argue to be the most deadly, types. See how the bottom of the arrowheads prods out below them? Imagine pulling that backward, the way it came, and pulling the flesh with it. Hence the “tearing flesh” statement. Of course, not all arrowheads are like this, with some with thinner shapes (seen on the right) are designed to puncture armor more effectively. Some of these are from traditional arrows while others are from bolts from crossbows. When writing fantasy, try to be familiar with the potential time period you are referencing the armor from, since that’ll change the types of arrowheads that were used by the enemy, and when one of your characters are wounded from these, it’s a great way to show your immersion when you use the proper arrowhead. With the arrowheads on the far left, removing them simply with your hands is risky because there’s still a high chance that you will still tear the flesh out with it. Having tools that can easier part the flesh out of the way to proud it out is a better option. Doctors were sometimes forced to push arrowheads deeper into the body until it went out the other side since there was more damage done pushing it in than pulling it out.

- Doctor Joseph Howland Bill, a Civil War doctor who wrote a book called “Notes on Arrow Wounds,” gives a comprehensive list on the damage of arrow wounds.

Bill states that arrows “ inflict wounds with a fatality greater than that produced by any other weapons — particularly when surgical assistance cannot be obtained.”

Arrows were designed very well in his day, where the arrowhead would loosen from the shaft when connected to anything wet –*cough* blood *cough* – so if anyone grasped onto the shaft and tried to pull it out, the arrowhead would be left in the body and the doctor would be forced to search for it. I don’t know if this was used in medieval times, but certainly it was used in the 18th century.

He also stated that arrows were sometimes deadlier than bullet wounds, which is a feat since bullets were often made of lead in the 18th century and poisoned a soldier’s bloodstream

The tissue around an arrowhead will not be able to heal and will cause infection if not removed quickly. This would often lead to fatal amputations.

He also states that when lodged in bone – and they often were, hurtling at intense speeds when shot by a 100lb bow – surgeons had to use “great force,” as well as tools, to pry the arrowhead out.

Now for their ability to heal:

- If the arrow went through a limb, they were easier to heal since they only made a small incision. Bill stated he would apply “cold or evaporating lotions” to the wounds and, providing there was no infection, the wound would heal in a mere week. If the wound WAS infected, then he would apply bandages, compresses, and “an early evacuation” of any drainage.

- If the arrow severed an artery, good luck. Doctors, especially in those times, were not able to staunch the bleeding before the patient died from blood loss.

- Arrows also caused severed nerves, broken bones, and fractures. These often weren’t fatal, but they often affected the soldier’s range of motion thereafter.

- Another interesting occurance is when an arrowhead scrapes NEAR a bone, the muscles will contract to such an extend it will bend the arrowhead, making it resemble a fishhook. If this is the case, pulling out the arrowhead would cause even more damage because, as I said, it would tear flesh. Bill had to practice a specific tactic, which you can read at the bottom of this post.

- If the arrow hits the trunk of the person, good luck once again. Bill states that arrowheads are more dangerous than bullets for three main reasons: bloodloss, infection, and emphysema. 

Arrows cut clean slits in someone’s flesh, which provide clearer passage for blood to flow out of.

Arrows usually stay in their targets, which result in infection until a surgeon can successfully remove it.

Emphysema is more of a nuisance than a fatality, but it is caused by irregular breathing from the lungs when struck.

- For this reason, if the arrow hits the LUNGS or any other vital organ, they’re almost always gone. Surgeons cannot staunch the blood at this point, especially on a battlefield, so they often bleed out. As Bill states: “Arrow wounds of the abdomen are generally fatal. An arrow can scarcely pass through the abdomen and fail to open a vessel or wound an intestine.”

[galadrieljones]

This is very useful! It would explain why a character might, if shot by an arrow that’s lodged quite deep, attempt to PUSH THE ARROW ALL THE WAY THROUGH to the other side, until it exits their body, rather than pull it out. Pushing it through obviously makes the wound deeper, but it prevents further shredding by the “prods” at the base of the arrow. Once the arrow head is through, you could use a sharp tool to saw or clip the shaft apart, and then pull it out a little more “cleanly.” I’m not sure where I saw this, but I remember my first reaction being “AHHHH don’t push the arrow deeper??” But that’s the point, it’s the only way sometimes, particularly with very broad arrows, and it must be done ASAP.

Obviously this would also work only if the arrow was lodged in flesh (not bone) and NOT in a vital organ of any kind. Like you can’t do this with an arrow to the chest, but maybe to the arm/shoulder/calf and POSSIBLY the abdomen if, in the words of Buffy Summers, “no major organs were kabob’ed.” Pulling out an arrow is bad, just like if you get a huge piece of glass in your hand, you’re advised to leave it in and go immediately to the hospital. Pulling it out will cause more damage, more bleeding, etc. You need to get it surgically removed. And if a character gets an arrow in the lungs/stomach/etc., this post explains it extremely well: it is very unlikely they will survive.

Thanks for this!! Grisly but very useful for writers.

Lots of good points here. (Yes, I know…) :->

How Stakes Set up Expectations

Stakes are what is at risk in the story. In the past, I’ve talked about how I like to think of stakes as potential consequences–what could happen if a certain condition is (or is not) met. For stakes to be most effective, they usually need to be specific and often on the page. They should follow a cause-and-effect trajectory.

All well-thought stakes should be able to fit into “If … then …” statements. Even if they aren’t actually written that way on the page (though they can be).

“If Rodrick knows I ratted him out, then he’ll never forgive me!” “If we don’t fight back, then he’ll take all our land, our homes, our lives we built.” “If we don’t keep moving, this place will be swarming with aliens in a matter of hours.”

Usually, we want more stakes on the page than what actually comes to pass. And I’ve talked about different ways of how to brainstorm those.  

When a story has great stakes the reader has to keep reading to find out if what could happen, does happen.

In other words, to some degree or another, stakes set up the readers’ expectations.

They may not always be 100% solid expectations, but they set up expectations more or less.

Because if Suzy accidentally left her campfire going, then I would expect that it could start a forest fire. That is a logical outcome. Depending on how this is rendered in the story and what’s happening in the plot, and what I, the reader, have read and seen in other stories before, I may fully expect that to happen next: Suzy’s campfire will start a forest fire.

Now that my expectations are set up, the author can play with them, if he or she desires.

Stakes are what could happen, not necessarily what actually happens (this is a form of tension and related to hooks). Stakes may be even what we fully expect to happen, but still, not necessarily what actually happens.

So as a writer, you have a few options:

1. The situation leads to the expected problem:

Suzy’s campfire does start a forest fire.

2. The situation leads to no problems:

The campfire peacefully burns out, and it rains that night.

3. The situation leads to a problem worse or bigger than expected:

The campfire not only starts a forest fire, but burns up a few homes, and a state park.

4. The situation leads to a surprising outcome:

The campfire attracts an angry bigfoot.

Good writers will take advantage of these different outcomes (whether the writer is fully conscious of doing that or not).

Be careful of using option two–the situation leads to no problems. If you use that too much, you run the risk of undercutting the tension in your story. This is when the writer cuts threads of tension, so that there is no tension in the story for a period of time, or when the writer repeatedly fails to deliver on promised conflict. It’s a little more complicated than I can sum up, but you can learn more about this issue here.

The point is, when you work with stakes, you set up some expectations in the audience. This is a good thing because it helps the audience get invested in the story (unless you are only setting up expectations that are totally predictable). Once they have expectations, you, the writer, can meet them, surprise them, or over-deliver on them. And yes, sometimes, undermine them too (only on occasion, and only when you have plenty of other important forms of stakes and tension in play). It can also be effective to use the character’s viewpoint to lead the audience to a specific stake, only to twist it to another outcome.

So think about what your audience is expecting from your story’s stakes. And if you are only using one or two of these types of outcomes, try to switch it up to keep your readers surprised.

my friend just told me that there's a secret second dashboard that solely contains posts from people you've turned on post notifications for, and when i click the link in the messages it opens it within the tumblr app, so the tumblr app also has a secret second dashboard for post notification blogs, and the only way to access it is to open the link for it within the app.

Capri Recs

Since I have read every single fic in the fandom, I decided to make a rec list with some of the fics that have impacted me the most. 

This process was brutal, i legit cried as I tried to narrow it down to ONLY 10 fics for every section, because there’s so many fics that I just adore, but the rules I set for myself said that it was only 10 fics for every section, so that’s what I did.
