What Inspired You To Write Hush???? I Love It Soooo Much!!!!!!! I Think As For Now, It's My Second Favorite
what inspired you to write hush???? i love it soooo much!!!!!!! i think as for now, it's my second favorite behind bd!!!!!!!
so hush was originally an college au - i was kinda inspired by yikyak (idk if you know it, it was an app we used during uni to post anon messages to a timeline).
this was the base:

but i'd written a bunch of college stuff, and I needed more of a reason as to why they'd be using an anon app. fame worked and so i switched it to an idol au. i have conflicting feelings about idol aus tho, so I theennnn switched it to a rockstar au and that's where we are today!
tadaaaa
thank you!! <33

Do you have a literature degree? Your prose is so pretty and perfect
nope - journalism & media!! focus was in broadcast journalism as opposed to written articles, but my passion + final project was always magazine journalism!!
i loved english lit in school tho
and thank u so much <33
Curious life of monarchs reminded me of the kdrama nevertheless so much... have you ever watched it? I think you'll like it...
i started it but never finished -- my netflix account reckons I got a few minutes into episode four before tapping out. it came out a couple months before I moved to sk so when I got here a lot of my friends were recommending it to me at the time!!
i know the girl in that is called nabi and that he (?) (the fuckboy?) (?) has a butterfly tattoo on his neck right? so with the names and the tattoo I understand where similarities could be drawn! the college aspect too!!
monarchs jk is lovely and sweet and not a fuckboy in any capacity tho!! an angel baby loverboy <33
i know you mentioned not being offended, but you seemed pretty offended by the end of it ๐
my question was answered in the first few paras where you mentioned your real life doesn't resonate w what the plot of the book is, so i'm glad my question was answered
as for the rest of it, oof
like i don't remember saying that you shouldn't write something that deviates from my preferences, nor did i say i want the two in otte to have a happy ending and live happily ever after, my question was simply why write something that puts you through emotional hurt bc you know that would make it difficult for you to complete when people could potentially end up wanting more, which again, was answered, idk where you got the 'cookie cutter' ending idea from, because again, i never said anything about that, also bc otte doesn't even have an ending to begin with lmao
i never asked you to not write a fic that doesn't fit my standards nor was it an attempt at that bc i'm an avid reader of angst and would love an angsty ending if there's going to be one at all, all i was wondering about a complete book
half of your reply wasn't even what i was looking for?? it was simply unprovoked and hurt me a little because i try to put forth my question as respectfully as possible nor would i encourage you to stop writing bc i like your fics, i could expect a lil niceness too right? or does that irk you too ๐๐ญ??
the hashtags apart from the first few paras were rude for no reason, especially when i made it clear i wasn't tting to be offensive and it never was my intention
thanks for answering i guess
also, another question, is there a posting schedule for the 'slut war' book? or would it be like bd?
i was annoyed, not offended!! and i've also slept on it so am a lot more chill about it now. you caught me at a bad time and that's on me, so I'm sorry for being a bit defensive with it all. if i'd have waited until this morning to answer it then yeah, you probably would have gotten a different answer.
that being said, tonally, your ask came across a bit rude to me--it questioned my motives in a way that I didn't really get, and made me feel like i was a bit stupid for publishing in the first place. it might just be your typical way of typing, but it's the kinda way i type when I'm fighting with someone lol, so it had my back up!! especially that final little lmao!!
you've also gotta bear in mind that I don't really have much of a presence on tumblr and that the otte was published 9 months ago, when my presence was even smaller. i really didn't/dont have reader expectations. it felt like you were calling me ingenuine and that's a shitty thing to be made to feel like!! especially when I've always been very open/honest with you guys about things!!
the story to me is done. it was never intended to be a fic!! or to have a resolution!! that's what I meant by people wanting a cookie cutter ending--you wanted something different to what was written. the ending is the ending.
i think i always strive to be kind, and I definitely wasn't trying to be unkind--but I'm also not a doormat and I do have feelings too, so even if you didn't intend for it to come across rudely, it kinda did and I responded accordingly.
the last thing i want is to leave a bitter taste in peoples mouths, though, so hopefully we can chalk this up to a misunderstanding/bad timing/me being a little reactive.
as for slut war--yes, it will be like bd!! I'm trying to commit to having the first 5 or 6 chapters ready for upload by the time bd is done so that we can have a steady couple of weeks of updates as we get into the story. it'll be shorter--a little over standard novel length, probably around 140k!
Tmi question but how frequently do b and jk fuck? I'm sure it's more than once in a week. But like most of the time when they're both working and have similar day off... hahaha sorry and thx for putting up with us
