Thanks for the ask Anon!! I’m very antsy to talk about my writing lol

(Kinda a long post)

🦋: Current WIPs

Oh my gosh this list is wayyyyy too long😅😅

So, I’m writing 2 ongoing stories, AbelCode and Anatomy of a Broken Girl, as well as AoaBG’s sequel. However, for things that haven’t come out…

Ghosts (Back in Jackson after Salt Lake City, Ellie starts to hallucinate the people she met on her journey)

A Dungeon Master’s Guide to Trauma (Ellie, Jesse, Dina, and Cat play DnD)

[redacted] (hehe…)

TLOU x Hunger Games (this one is pretty self-explanatory, but I’m not sure if I’m gonna post it…)

These are the ones I’m currently working on, but I have some other ones planned as well…

✨:Newest WIP

Someone sent me a request for a modern AU foster fic, so I started on that a couple days ago. It’s called ‘Frightening Fishes’, based on the ‘Shrinking’ theme song. It’s pretty angsty, believe it or not…

Also, I have a ton more for original WIPs, but I wasn’t sure if anyone wants to hear about that haha. Drop me an ask for original WIPs if you do!

Thanks for the ask, Anon!

6: most used word in current draft

For scars:

I don’t how how I’ve managed this but… ‘back’ is my most used word I gues??? Somehow??? (I’m pretty sure it doesn’t include ‘and’ and ‘the’ and stuff like that tho…

12: trope you’re really into

One I absolutely adore is parallel endings. It’s just my favorite way to end a story. Parallel endings (at least that’s what I call them, idk the official term) is when the end of your story is a direct parallel/call back to the beginning, maybe by using some phrase or situation, but now everything’s different. I just love that stuff.

19: most interesting thing you’ve researched for a story

Oh wow, I have no idea. I will say that I found this picture I took that I sent to some of my writer friends that’s gotta be up there

(Also… flights?? Flights???)

An open note to readers of fanfic

Sometimes I stare at the computer screen when the words don’t want to come and I think, “Fuck, who am I kidding? This is terrible writing, and this story is shit, and no one cares, anyway.”  And I close the window and go do something else.

But every now and then I get an amazing, heartfelt, beautiful comment from someone who loved something I wrote, and it reminds me that, at least for that one person, I did write something worthwhile. And so I open the window again and I write one sentence, and then another, and then I start to find my way again.

So on behalf of all fanfic writers everywhere, I want to say thank you, thank you so much, to all of the readers who take the time to leave a comment and tell us that something we wrote mattered to you, that it brightened your day or made you laugh or cry or get horny or whatever.

Please don’t think we’re ever bothered by your comment, or that we don’t want to hear it, or that what you have to say isn’t important enough. It means so, so much. And on some days, it’s what keeps us going.

30: fic you’re especially proud of

I mean, it’s gotta be ‘Skin’. It was my first completed longfic, and honestly I’m just really proud of my writing for that one. I’m trying really hard to keep Scars at the same level of quality.

Also, I adore ‘AbelCode’. I’m not far into it, but I love writing it and I love how different it is to Skin. It definetly helps me not get bogged down in the angst of my other writing haha

11: WIP you’d like to finish one day

Ghosts. I love it and I’ve had parts of it written in Google Docs for so long but I genuinely think by the time it’s finished it could be like… one of my fave fics I’ve ever written.

18: share a deleted sentence or paragraph from one of your fics

Ooooh, okay. So for context, originally Joel was with Ellie for the entire last chapter of Skin. So they got caught by James together, but he wasn’t killed before David got there.

rules: list your five all time favorite films and have people vote on which one matches your vibe

Thanks for tagging me @renegadeknight!!

(I decided to go with TV shows because all my movies are basically the same lol)

(Excluding TLOU which is #1 because this is a TLOU blog so it wouldn’t exactly be a balanced scale)

(Yeah, my list is really weird lol)
